TOO MUCH LOOT + How to fix the ATLAS

Tried PoE2 again, after some break and remembered why the game is so bad:

Before I get to the title part,
Critical things missing right now (that have an easy fix I guess):
- Advanced search filter on support skills (I want to select multiple options, not just write one thing).
- Bookmarks and better highlights on Passive Tree.
- Diverse/balanced skills. You mostly play one Meta right now.
- Teleport to player.
- Hit "TAB" to switch between chat channels.


LOOT
- Simply too much meaningless loot. My buddies quit playing entirely because of this. It`s so discouraging to see endless things on the ground that mean nothing, especially since crafting is v. simplistic and inventory v. small.

I don`t care about the loot filter (which should be in the game, btw) - this is merely a workaround. The philosophy of the game should be to have much less number of items, but more impactful (much like the new Titan Quest 2, as I heard).

Uniques are useless because of low level and also not interesting enough. I think this is a known problem.


ATLAS
- Infinite Atlas is stupid. It can get incredibly big and almost impossible to navigate, even with the newly implemented bookmarks.

Instead, make it finite: each Atlas can have a number of corrupted areas which unlocks a new Atlas once you finish all of them. Each new Atlas can have additional bonuses, monster level, Unique maps, etc.
A MINIMAP can be introduced, thus making infinitely easier to navigate and manage the maps.

(So still infinite in the end, but split in pieces).


Additional feedback
Trade
- I feel like it should only accept some items to sell. If I can buy anything from the Market, then what`s the point of playing?
- Buying should be instant, directly from Trade page.

Others nice to have:
-> In-Game loot filter (including the visuals)
-> Armory - to easily try new builds and swap back
-> Test Dummy - to see how you improve your build
-> Floating damage numbers option (at least for crits)?
-> Graphical visualization when you Evade/Block
-> Weapons DPS visibility (I can only see this in Trade now)
-> Game Party Statistics (like total damage done/taken in a map to compare)
-> Bestiary.
(POE2 should not be POE1.5, GGG, keep it slower, more tactical)
