As the title says, it isn't possible to identify the rare particle traces based on their icons alone. Could we have them a little different from one another? Perhaps just have letters or numbers in the bottom right corner signifying different traces if making new icons isn't worth the time.
Got a point there, it can get rather confusing at times when stacking them in the bank.
I've got my stacks alphabetized, but I'm still not sufficiently familiar with the entire list to know all the positions yet. Ability to visually distinguish traces would be a Good Thing.
Agreed. I keep them in alphabetized piles too, and gotten used to it pretty well, but this would be helpful. Whether it's unique symbols, different background colors or just some tiny letters in the lower left corner.
my particle traces are alphabetized, but my data samples are arranged in order from the highest stack to the lowest stacks- so i can tell at a glance where i need to go next for farming.
I have memorized where in the stack each particle trace is(i have had more than enough time to), and I am that obsessicve-compulsive, that as i collect particle traces, i put them in alphabetical order.
I do not have a major problem with identifying my particle traces anymore- though i understand not everyone has OCD
Support this idea - very basic really, I can't imagine this didn't come up in QA during testing.
I seem to recall the rare traces were originally supposed to be unique, so knowing where to put the extra ones wouldn't have come up.
I too support some sort of differentiation of icons. I'd also support changing one of the names so I don't feel the urge to go "Duuuuude!" whenever I get one, like some sort of 90s teen movie.
I'd be happy with a generic "move to bank" option from the right click menu. This would stack any stackable item on top of existing stacks, and if it would overflow the stack, the extra items go into an open bank slot.
This would also fix the problem of when banking zones get laggy and it drops whatever is on your mouse into the wrong slot, causing even more of a mess.

Ditto!! Me too.
That would make it a lot easier when I've stayed up to late playing and am just trying to sort the loot before i log off.

Like in the Periodic System.
Chronometric Particle Trace would then be "Ch" or "Cr"
