Searching for level requirement

Hi is it possible to highlight items in your stash that require a specific level?
I know you can search by item level but can't seem to search by level requirement.
i.e. searching "requires level 1" doesn't work. Was trying to search Lilly's sale tab for skills I could use from character level 1.
Any trick?

Cheers

if you're using the official trade site:

below socket filters, by default, there is a "requirements" box that is unchecked. click that.

in 'level', put in a Max. So if you are level 30 and want something you can wear, put 30 in the max box. now your search will only show things required level 30 and lower.

If you're trying to search one of your stash tabs, you can search by item level.
There are a bunch of ways to search for stuff in your tabs.

Or are you talking about poe trade?

Sorry was talking about searching in-game stash. I know you can search by item level but can't seem to search by level requirement

Edited OP to clarify.

Bumping for similar reasons : new character, a bunch of items in stash with different level and stat requirements, can't seem to find a way to search for "Requires Level X"...

Also, for some weird reason, "Level: 1" highlights this ?!? :


Meta : why when searching for "requires level" stash search, this thread didn't show up in the first pages, while it was the first result when searching this site with DuckDuckGo ??

Yeah, the forum search leaves a bit to be desired. IIRC it searches for "any of the entered terms", so you got results with either "requires level" or "stash" or "search", rather results that contained all three.


On-topic: You matched that ring because its item level is in the 10-19 range.

In-game you can copy an item's info using Ctrl+C. Doing this and pasting into notepad or whatever gives some insight as to what you may want to design your search string to look for.

Example:


Having messed around with this example a bit to find solutions for you, here are some suggestions/springboards:

!unmet - Only highlights items without unmet requirements--though this also includes non-equipment items like currency. Would be more useful if it could be combined with the specific level searches, but it might be more visually clear than just the red backgrounds.
^level:\s[1-4]?\d\b - Highlights items with level requirements between 1 and 49, inclusive. Does not match items with no level requirements, and also matches any gear containing gems.
^level:\s[1-4]?\d$ - Same as above, but only matches met level requirements (and gems still).

Note that the behavior concerning items with socketed gems seems hard to avoid. They include a line for the gem level, and for the required level. So, on top of not being able to separate low level high required level gems in the search, I also couldn't find a way to only search by the equipment item and not by the gems inside.

Been messing with this bcas I wanted to search uniques tab for uniques that require levels 1-19.

In poe you can search "!req" which seems to find any item that doesn't have a level requirement.

I've just been testing by trial and error basically and it seems like:

"X|Y" = contains X OR Y
"X"|"Y" = contains X AND Y

which is weird syntax (to me).


"!req"|"staff" works as you'd expect from above, it shows staff with no requirement

"!req|staff" shows items with no requirement. Though critically, EXCLUDES the staff. I think the only way this can happen is if you are actually searching for "no requirement AND no staff" meaning:
-in this example the | no longer function as OR but instead as AND
-the ! is also being applied to the string "staff"


I'm so confused. I just wanted to search for !req OR ^level:\s[1-4]?\d\b
which I accept probably cannot work because one condition is regex and the other is not. Though I have had some searches with "!req|~someregex~" work as I would expect. Which of course leads to more confusion.

There is always the very real possibility that I'm just a moron.

Thanks a lot !

^level:\s\d\b is part of what I was looking for : matches required levels from 1 to 9 !

Yeah, might be some weirdness here ??

However, staff|!req seems to work properly ?

There's an issue here : !req seems to match items without any requirements whatsoever. For instance it doesn't match a shield requiring 15 Intelligence, but no level requirement.

However, !^level does seem to match items without any requirements !

But then weirdness shows up again, you would expect ^level:\s\d\b|!^level to match required levels from 1 to 9 OR items without any requirements, but it only matches the former ??

EDIT : Yeah, I haven't found a way to make double negations work ??
(Was trying to go around with De Morgan's Laws...)

However, I can do a double negation myself for at least one of them !


!^level!|^level:\s[10-99]\d\b

This does seem to match required levels from 1 to 9 OR items without any requirements.

Note the weird (?) placement of the second !...


EDIT2 : Oh, but then half of the expression is redundant, duh, so this alone works too :

!^level:\s[10-99]\d\b

This does seem to match required levels from 1 to 9 OR items without any requirements.

Ok, that previous one might have only been working by coincidence ?
(I really should have brushed up on my RegEx first...)

Range 10 to 99 in RegEx would be actually

(1[0-9]|[2-9][0-9])

and

!^Level:\s(1[0-9]|[2-9][0-9])\b

indeed seems to match required levels from 1 to 9 OR items without any requirements.

Then, range 13 to 99 in RegEx :

(1[3-9]|[2-9][0-9])

and

!^Level:\s(1[3-9]|[2-9][0-9])\b

indeed seems to match required levels from 1 to 12 OR items without any requirements.

(I picked 12 here because that seems to be the minimum requirement for the +15% Increased Movement Speed on boots.)

Damn, I keep tripping over this.

It's especially confusing how
X|Y is actually a different search from "X|Y"... if spaces are involved :

In my case, I was trying to simplify vendor running by just pasting a single string, rather than several ones, more specifically searching with items with increased Movement Speed or +<Z> to Level of all <Element> Skill Gem, searching with :

"movement"|"to level"

Can you see my mistake ?



But then, of course,

movement|to level

also fails (while it shouldn't ??),
because it seems to treat to and level as separate (or something)

In the end, as you discovered,

"movement|to level"

seems to work as I wanted it to.

P.S.:

"movement|to level|:.*(?=\S*r)(?=\S*g)(?=\S*b)"

seems to work fine too. (The last bit for the Chroma vendor recipe.)

P.P.S.: And so does

"mov|to level|:.*(?=\S*r)(?=\S*g)(?=\S*b)|rare"

:D

P.P.P.S.: Ok, one last one :p

"mov|to le|:.*(?=\S*r)(?=\S*g)(?=\S*b)|rare|d rar"

(d rar being for Increased Rarity of Items found)
