Set names should be at start of item names!

Inventory organisation is terrible once you get tons of set items you want to save. Some addons help but not completely and on consoles, well, it's a nightmare.

ZOS, how about you rename all the set items so that something like Gauntlets of Mephala's Hands becomes Mephala's Hand's Gauntlets or Mephala's Hand: Gauntlets.

Seriously, this is an extremely simple change, shouldn't take much effort and the set items will all stay together in every item list.

    This has been asked for before, and it really needs to be in the game. They just did this with all the recipes, so it's really not undoable.

    Or at least a filter:
    "Mephala" would show only those set pieces. "Gauntlets" would display all the gauntlets.

    They know. They started doing this with new sets. And iirc they started changing names of existing items to bring them in line with the naming convention of set identifier first.

    Omg yes please x_x I have hamster instinct which tells me to hoard all the stuff in case it's actually useful one day(well - remotely decent bop sets in hood traits for sure) and this is such a pain...

    While we're on this - would it be possible to get some sort of "date/time when it was received" order option added to bags? Or at least being able to optionally extend that "new things show up on the too of the list with ! near them" thing? It's really annoying having to slip through my whole bag and bank in order to find that purple Bow of Uselessness that I vaguely remember I got 5 mins ago and want to deconstruct without deconstructing any of actually potentially useful stuff in the process x_x

    I'm sure they also removed some set names from item names in Update 13 after adding them in Update 12. The issue I see either way is that some set names when combined with item names make no sense at all. Like "Valanir's Lost Hope of the Green Pact" or "Shield of the Conspirators of the Worm Cult" (there are worse examples than that).

    Taking the same direction that Recipes and Dye Stamps use, I agree that [Set Name: Item Name] would be the best and most consistent way to do it.

    @DorianDragonRaze looks like it has more potential than Inventory Insights, in that regard. Does it also account for named set items (that don't include the base set name in the item name?)

    OP, fully agree. They should also be grouped by quality and/or trait in standard inventory.

    Not like inventory hell isn't bad enough without having to play hide-and-seek on a single character.

    While they're add it, reorder the Group Finder dungeons to alpha-friggin-betical, please.

    The worst of it is when you search item sets and it doesn't bring up the unique named gear. You have to remember the exact name for those parts of a set.

    It is so bad that I put my Impen Necropotence, BSW on my MagDK ( cause I retired him since just after DB patch).

    And my Stam Sorc is already clogged with Elegant, BSW, Necropotence ect. in divines...

    and that is but 1 class... ( +- 7 sets for 1 character )

    This only helps PC players, but the Inventory Insight add-on now has the ability to search for set items. If checked, it will list all pieces from the set you are looking for, even if it's a unique piece without the set name in the item name.

    ^This!^

    Indeed we have mentioned this before, and all it'd take was some renamings.

    BtW, renamings... who else would like it if the items that come in different alliance PvP styles had their style in their name? Not just "Cyrodils Light Sash" and let people who want a matching set spend time figuring out oif that piece in the guild vendor is their "patriotic" style but instead go right ahead naming them "Pact Cyrodils Light Sash", "Covenant Cyrodils Light Sash", "Dominion Cyrodils Light Sash" and so on...
