    Fog of War!

    OK I like the fact that we have all maps for all areas, map acquisition in XI was tiresome to say the least, Crawlers nest anyone? but I don't like the fact that I can see a whole area or dungeon from the first time I enter it. I say fog the maps out and unveil it as you move about.

    Oh god please no. I HATED dealing with that in XI. It's the one thing you will NEVER hear me fuss about in XIV. LOL

    No you are correct but not having the map because you needed quests or to purchase them left you with a consistent FoW

    Just thought of something. If there was ... a FoW, how would that work with Leves? You only have 30 minutes to get to and kill X mobs. If you get lost, you could fail the leve and that...would suck. haha

    When you are completing a leve you still have the arrows to guide you and the yellow circles would appear even if that part was still fogged out. It also might make the leves slightly more challenging because atm I'm completing most of them within 5-6 minutes.

    I just think it makes exploring less exciting, knowing exactly where you are all the time. I would be happy with a toggle option so people could have it if they wanted.

    Ok agree and agree. If I'm a low level trying to haul a$$ across a new map, I'm not trying to explore and theres NO way I can visually remember a brand new area so this idea to me would be a good one.
