Pets - items pick-up - wrong description?

In patch notes, there is “Pets are now available in-game. Aiding with Material and Item pick-up”

So ok, pets now collecting materials which is a little bit usefull. Only a little bit :slight_smile:
But … aiding with … Item pick-up. So as i undersdand, pets can pick up also items so i missed something? Is there any options for pet to do that, we need to set up something ? Or its bugged or misunderstanding with description ?

What do You think ?

They pick up gold and ‘materials’ that go into your Materials Tab. They won’t pick up anything beyond that. You have to pick up gear, boss mats, elixirs, etc.

to be fair, those gets sent to the storage if you miss em.

in understand. I know how it works but look at description on patch notes :slight_smile:

Aiding with Material and ITEM PICK-UP. Materials are Items ? Because for me - Items = gear etc.

True, so do legendaries, but I just meant in general.

I’d rather they not pick up random items for me honestly. Don’t want my bag filled with a bunch of yellows I’ll do nothing with at this point in the game. I get where you’re coming from, but it is what it is.

Yup would be nice if we could tell our pet not to pick up bad gear…sounds like a LF.

Yeah, I feel ya bro. I do love the addition of pets for sure! But… I wish they would collect boss mats and elixirs too! :frowning:

Yes, You’re right but it supposed to be an option when You can choose “what to do with specific items”

Ideally, the pet would have a big storage pack (seperate from normal storage) on them where you can sell/salvage gear as well so you can stay in helltide forever without having to port back.

But that’s too much to ask fori guess

I checked that. Pet can’t pick up elixirs and boss mats

Yea wrong game, you’ll have to look for Torchlight for that kind of QoL feature. Not even PoE offers this. Actually I don’t know of any other game in the genre that offers it now that I think about it.

Only reason i’d want it here is because if you port to town and then port back to helltide, you are sometimes not porting back to the same phase and everyone who were there doing the helltide boss is just gone now.

That reminds me of D3 , where stubborn players against pick gears. Really whats wrong with these people. Full or not , its upto player. not in favor of certain “players” . there goes the debate again

Its not wrong game, Its whether they choose to give or not.

Um, yes. We’ll go with that. :+1:

Yeah, it could be like season of the construct. Where they add another tab, and you can select what you want your pet to loot. Would be great!
