Compass



The Compass (located in the top right corner by default) helps with navigation of your surroundings as well as shows the locations of targets within the area. Each color dot/triangle represents a different type of target.

Compass Components
PvE
 * Light Blue (Dot)  - A player not in a group (only when in an town/outpost)
 * Dark Blue (Dot)  - A player in a group (only when in an town/outpost)
 * Green (Dot)  - A player (when in an explorable zone or mission area)
 * Lime Green (Triangle)  - A Friendly NPC
 * Red (Dot)  - An Enemy NPC (aka mob)
 * Dark Gray (Dot) - A corpse

PvP
 * Blue (Dot)  - The Blue Team
 * Red (Dot)  - The Red Team

The Silver Circle in the center of the compass represents your aggro circle. If the enemy enters this circle, they will gain aggro and attack you. Use this circle wisely to judge when you are far away enough from a group of targets so you can slip by them. Very important to know if you plan on being a runner.

Interacting with the Compass
To assist your team mates in combat, you can help direct them by either pinging the compass (single click of the left mouse button) or by drawing lines on the compass (hold down the left mouse button and move). Doing so can help turn the tide in a battle when players are willing to cooperate. Be aware that unnecessary usage of the compass (e.g. drawing smiley faces) can be annoying and disruptive. Also, it's wise to allow only the leader to use the compass to lead his/her team since there is no way of knowing who is pinging/drawing on the compass at any given time.
