Feature Suggestion: More Heist filters including contract Implicits + Explicits

AsklepG commented 1 year ago

Filtering Heist Contracts for which ones are most worth running can be a somewhat annoying process, especially when using the Voidstone-Mod: "Non-Unique Heist Contracts found in your maps have an additional Implicit Modifier".

For example, filtering a duplication implicit based on which Rogue can do it, would be a very useful addition to the tool.

I thank you for this great website that is removing so much annoyance in gameplay and am open to any question you might have about my suggestion if you should consider it worthwhile.

Have a nice day!

Do you have examples of those contracts?

Can you ctrl+alt+c copy them? I'll look in to what I can do about this 👍

Yea, sure thing. Here's one example of each implicit type:

Item Class: Contracts Rarity: Normal Contract: Bunker

Client: Anton Laffrey Heist Target: Golden Napuatzi Idol (High Value) Area Level: 83 Requires Agility (Level 4 (unmet))

Item Level: 83

Rogue Equipment cannot be found (enchant) 200% more Rogue's Marker value of primary Heist Target (enchant)

"I believe she was a beautiful maiden. Kind, virtuous and devout through-and-through. Such a gift will set me apart from all other suitors."

Give this Contract to Adiyah in the Rogue Harbour to embark on the Heist.

Item Class: Contracts Rarity: Normal Contract: Bunker

Client: Kondor Larcius Heist Target: The Goddess of Water (High Value) Area Level: 83 Requires Demolition (Level 2 (unmet)) Time Before Lockdown: -50% (augmented)

Item Level: 83

50% reduced time before Lockdown (enchant) Rogue Perks are doubled (enchant)

"The relief depicts some sort of forgotten Maraketh goddess. I have no idea what the context is. The important thing is that you steal it before Bazira does."

Give this Contract to Adiyah in the Rogue Harbour to embark on the Heist.

Item Class: Contracts Rarity: Normal Contract: Bunker

Client: Marcine Clavus Heist Target: Enigmatic Assembly C5 (Moderate Value) Area Level: 83 Requires Agility (Level 4 (unmet))

Item Level: 83

Heist Chests have a 100% chance to Duplicate their contents (enchant) Monsters have 100% more Life (enchant)

"I have spent my family's entire fortune in the pursuit of this device. Assembling it and turning it on is all I have left."

Give this Contract to Adiyah in the Rogue Harbour to embark on the Heist.

Item Class: Contracts Rarity: Normal Contract: Bunker

Client: Count Geonor Heist Target: Ogham Candelabra (Moderate Value) Area Level: 83 Requires Engineering (Level 1 (unmet))

Item Level: 83

Completing a Heist generates 3 additional Reveals (enchant) Heist Chests have 25% chance to contain nothing (enchant)

"Those Eternal bastards looted everything that wasn't bolted to the floor when we finally drove them from our island! That candelabra belongs with us!"

Give this Contract to Adiyah in the Rogue Harbour to embark on the Heist.

I can provide more if you need. Just let me know!

Thanks. This is a good start 😁

So the use case is:

You want the option to search for valuable targets, but also be able to check for special modifiers?

So would it work to have an expression that checks for: Value of some min value (lets say 1500) and another one that checks for special modifiers? One issue I can think of here is that low-ish valued contracts wont be able to fit in to a regex (say value 1000 or higher) and a special modifier.

Would it be enough to be able to search for special implicit modifiers? Examples:

You can then select the heist char level range and select some of the modifiers you want.
You could select a minimum value and a some special modifiers you want.

So, the thing that I would consider most helpful would probably just be the ability to

a) Search for type of Implicit + job-type

(the way this would be used would basically be for example to target lockpicking contracts, which contain high amounts of currency-chests, that have the implicit modifer of duplicating chest contents)

b) Search for type of Implicit + value of primary target

(the way I would use it would basically just be looking for the highest few tiers of value; the lower tiers aren't really that important.)

But in general, just the ability to filter for these implicits in any way shape or form would be really useful itself.
