<p>Hi,</p> <p>Before I start: I know that I am able to search for collectables on the broker by clicking on them in my journal.</p> <p>What I like to have is the following: The advanced search allows me to search for all collectables. This gives (at the moment) more than 2000 pages of results. This result is actually pretty useless if you already have many collectables. I would like a option to search for all collectables that I am still missing.</p> <p>What are your thoughts on this?</p>

<p>I think it might take quite a bit of code to program the broker window to do a check on your collections journal to check for the ones you're missing. That would be a HUGE resource hog of a project IMO to accommodate a convience that, although time consuming, can be done just as well manually.</p>

Neither do I know wether the guy/gal doing the coding for the broker is the same person that makes quests <img src="/smilies/8a80c6485cd926be453217d59a84a888.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /> </p> <p>What I do know is that I have about 150 collections that are not yet complete. And it is a tough job to daily check wether there are any (affordable) collectables that I don't have yet.</p> <p>I agree that this is not a life threatening problem and I will enjoy this game with or without this feature but it would make my (and maby other people's) life a lot easier.</p>
