i think it would be a great idea if kingsisle would add a way to get directions to a particular place... it could be an extra option under the quest selection screen you go to it select the world in question (dragonspyre mooshu etc ) and then the area you are trying to get to ( atheneum, the grand chasm etc..) then an arrow appears in the place of the quest arrow (maybe make it different color so you know its not leading you to a quest) and it leads you to the zone you are trying to find... i have a very bad sense of direction lol and get lost so often i think this would help alot!
We appreciate your dilemma. You may want to consider pressing "N" or clicking on the Compass next time you're not in a duel. This brings up the Navigation bubbles (N for Navigation) that show you which direction to head to reach different areas.
Pressing "M" for Map is also a good indication of where you need to go next.
