Diablo 3 Blue Posts » Legendary Mini Map Ping = Underwhelming


Northern
I applaud your effort in calling out legendary drops. Overall it is a great addition. That said, the mini map ping is very underwhelming.

If the item drops and I am not near it (say im splitting off with one person while two others are elsewhere hunting for wardens) then I won't necessarily even no about.

The minimap ping should just continue until the item is looted.

Also maybe you could introduce some text across the screen like old school Killer Instinct C-C-C-Combo Breaker

L-L-L-LEGENDARY!

Ok so that was said somewhat in jest, but you get the point.

We agree, and we're looking into making the mini-map ping more visible. While I don't think we'll change the graphic or add in an alert dialog (we might, but it hasn't really come up in discussion), we definitely do want to make the ping last for a much longer period of time.

Excellent feedback, guys (and ladies). I'll pass it along to our development team.
