I hate aether currents with a passion

[Aivi_lo]

I was in the dravanian forelands and must have been between 2 of the currents as my compass kept changing its mind over where it wanted to send me. Not by a little bit either, I was doing huge circles at the top left of the map not getting anywhere. I was getting really annoyed!

It will always show the direction as a straight line to the nearest aether current. If you get closer to a different current while moving towards it, it will then show that one instead, so be warned. For my part, regular checking of the maps and a little common sense are all it took to find all the aether currents so far.

I've mapped The Sea of Clouds, Coerthas Western Highlands, The Dravanian Forelands and the Churning Mists. The former was the only frustrating one since I started that one first and it was the last one I could complete

Frankly, having to collect the Aether Currents really makes me appreciate being able to fly after! The challenge makes the reward sweeter.

While I feel similarly, I also feel like the completion of aether currents occurs way too closely to the point in which you move to the next zone.
You really don't get to enjoy it until later on when you're in moogle hell.

I spam that compass constantly and this only happened once. I really like this system and hope they keep it.

[AskaRay]

Me too. I love this... hopefully in future releases they keep it similar.

Make sure you hotkey the compass and you'll save yourself a lot of trouble. You can even use it while moving and mounted.

Without spoiling too much, I'll see your aether currents and raise you Moogles.

If I never see one of those adorable fuzzballs again...
