arrows on maps

I have a a question. in the recent update 3.2 or 3.3 se desided we needed large red arrows to see the exits of zones on the map. I would like to know if there is a way to turn them off because they clutter up the map. I also find things like this a bit of an Immersion break it just seems like its kinda slapped on.
Thanks in advance

I also sought a way to turn them off; especially with the giant one in Moghome that I see everyday.

I thought it was a strange thing to add. The zone exits have always been clearly marked on the maps, but in a style and font that suits the design of the rest of the map. I don't really see why anyone would need it marked a second time in such a glaring and visually disruptive fashion. I'm not exactly bothered by them, though. They just seem redundant and strange.

I'd like a feature, though, where we can toggle any given type of map marker on/off. It can make it easier to find the one(s) you're currently looking for if you turn everything else off. And if they add that feature, it'd be good if they'd separate out the normal zone markers from these huge red arrows, so if you simply don't like the big red arrows you could just leave them turned off all the time, while still showing the exits as they've always been shown with the blue dots and name of the adjacent zone.

I guess the arrows were too much of a good point.

Doesn't really bother me though. If I have to say anything negative.. I'd say they're too damn big.

I agree. They should just chop the needlessly long tails off and have the three line arrow point next to the dots.

They are the biggest eye sore on the map. I would love a toggle or them because I literally hate opening the map now.

There is no way, unfortunately. And yeah, these arrows are totally hideous just from an artistic and design perspective in general. Smaller, simpler red triangles would have sufficed.

Haha, i spent ages trying to figure the secret they were pointing to or the treasure chest, until i realised they were just zone arrows. Do we really need our hands held that much.

I'm wondering if this was a thing implemented for a few particular cases, that just turns out obnoxious in the grand scheme. Maybe a few dungeons where the zone changes weren't clear. Or pointing out boat/ferry spots or something. Basically any zone change that might be easily overlooked.

At least it makes it easy to find some treasure map locations, where the giant red arrow appears even on those.

It's one of those things that they feel is a great QoL change even though nobody ever asked for it.

next from zone to zone there will be runway lights and finishing lines at zone lines with crowds of people as you pass through, cheering and congratulating you,

It makes the treasure maps near the arrows a lot easier to find though.

They are a bit of an eyesore, I wonder why they were even introduced ^^;
Surely everyone can read the maps.

Especially the Moghome one where the arrow points right at the chest, haha.
