QoL suggestion Waymarks on minimap

[DracotheDragon]

Just a random idea while i am in Ravana with my static, but since the map is circle i find it easy to lose my brings and get confused on where everything is, and an idea i came up with is to put the A B and C way marks on the map, not only would this help in circular arenas but it would make co-ordanating rather easy for other duties.


what do you guys think


Edit: (a small edit to explain my idea out fully since i aint fighting ravana XD i typed this in a rush since he was doing final liberation.. we won btw)

Hello, a random idea i came up with while fighting raven is the ability to see the, 'A', 'B' and 'C' way marks, on your minimap, (and the main map), the reason or this idea is, with a lot of circular arena's where the textures and surrounding decorations are symmetrical, and the boss requires a lot of movement or us running around the arena, it becomes quite easy to lose ones berings, and for co-operational reasons most uses the way marks as a way to deal with mechanics in a friendly manner, but, to people new to the instance or if they get confused during the run, they lose there way and go to the wrong spot or don't know where any thing is,

so my idea for a fix is to allow the way marks to show up on the minimap, this would allow players to quickly glance up at the small UI and see where the 3 points are in a quick and easy way without having to fumble with the camera or get even more confused.

another reason for this as well is if there are any more giant mobs like say the manipulator in Burden of the father - alexander some parties use the way marks to tell people with discoid where to stand, but the mob is so big that even on full zoom out it becomes difficult to see anything.

for new players this would also assist in trials such as Leviathan and Odin, since if there to busy fighting the boss and a mechanic pops us and they know which letter to run to they can run to the letter.

in basics this quality of life would allow new players the ability to gain there brings faster in the small symmetrical rooms, while older players such as myself can do all the running around and have a point of reference within the minimap.

Yeah I got the xpac late, being able to mark a few locations would deffinately help me remember the location of an aether current I couldn't quite reach from the way I approached. Honestly the game could use quite a few QoL improvements. Why not.

for that matter, flags markers should appear as well.

Sorry I misread, thought you meant your in game map not just the minimap. On phone so I can't edit :/

Anyways still a good idea I just was thinking more along the lines of being able to set custom waypoints on your map visible on both the normal and mini maps.
