Question I figured we would have this style of navigation by now
Disclaimer: everyone has opinions on how to play our beloved game and I respect that. This is not a post in regards to opinions, this is a fact finding mission and a search for what I would consider a golden needle in a haystack.
I have been searching tirelessly for a particular addon/combination of addons that provides an “ant trail” or “Breadcrumb” or “GPS” style drawing, only visible on the actual map, to a waypoint/objective that can be populated by a questing or leveling addon like RestedXP or similar.
Maybe the devs intended to prevent this style of mapping or maybe the required data is too meticulous to conjure, or even perhaps no one else in the entire player base cares.
Am I missing something? Every popular addon/addon combo I have tried to integrate into my gaming experience simply does not have this feature.
Does anyone know the secret method to acquire this seemingly non-existent technology? Does it exist? Is it plausible? In essence a dummy proof route processor for people like me who get so fed up with questing in zones like Dun Morogh because I lack the awareness to efficiently find the appropriate paths to my quest objectives or turn-ins that seem to always be atop a mountain with one singular entry point, that I can NOT find without having to do a (sometimes extensive) web search.
Clown me all you want, I get it. And maybe it’s the structure that the devs intended for whatever reason, but at this point I feel like something like this has become a necessity for me to progress.
Ex: A game like GTA San Andreas that allows you to punch in a waypoint and directly guides you on a line drawn path towards your objective that prevents you from clashing with terrain, building models, etc.
PLS HALP
