Recommended Market Search update

So as a long time player I love that we have market search in game now.

However in teaching my friends to play and in trying to find crafting bases I find that one thing is lacking.

The ability to search for a specific mod tier

I'll provide a specific example where this would greatly simplify certain searches.

I'm looking to buy two bases for a ring recombination. I want a T1 flat damage modifier on one of them. The first problem I run into is that damage mods of this nature have a range and unless I've done this a lot before or happen to find a guide it is very difficult to determine what minimum value I can put in to narrow my search to T1 mods.

Now the second mod I want is Accuracy which is much simpler because I want a perfect T1 roll. I put in 450 for the min and hit search.

In both cases even if I set my minimum value correctly the first rings I get shown are Breach Rings with 40% attack quality and T2 or T3 mods of the type I'm looking for.

The search results already show the prefix or suffix tiers so the information is already there to filter the search. We just need the ability to say search by mod tier, instead of or as well as, the mininmum value. This would also simplify these types of searches without requiring the input of a Not group to get rid of hybrids that create a similar problem to quality on rings.

On another note its confusing to new players when I try to explain to them that they shouldn't buy the first thing that pops up when its in chaos because the system undervalues chaos orbs (or more recently orbs of annulment). I'm guessing these conversions are based on the item drop rates in game not the actual player values. You have the currency market which can provide a real time conversion to a core currency for sorting trade results.

It would make a lot of sense to integrate this instead of however it is determining the value of a chaos versus an exalt currently. You could easily avoid manipulation by simply having it calculate a 24 hour average from the market to use for the next hour so its not having to constantly change. This would provide a much more accurate representation of the cheapest match while reducing load on the system by having it simply update once an hour by processing the last hour of successful sales.
