Can anyone help me out, and tell me how to find coordinates with latitude/longitude in game?

Thanks

Easiest way is to send a /tell to yourself like this :


/tell <name> ;loc

And that is a semi-colon. (;)

Currently, there is no mod that puts these permanently on your screen like the ones you can get in WoW.

The reason for sending it in a /tell is to not annoy other players.

Each co-ordinate will have N,S,E,W on them which is quite simply North, South, East and West.
They will also have a number, which is a distance.

A typical co-ord printout would be :

30N.30W

How do they relate to the map?

I think by now its assumed that 0.0 is central to the map you are on, and then the co-ordinates relate from that point, ie 30N.30W would be up and left of that central point on the map.

How far is 30?

I really have no idea, I don't tend to use them, but I am sure its not paces.

Why don't people ever read stickies? It's not like they are stickied at random or for fun >_>

Beats me, but what I find even worse, people in game who don't seem to even read the quest descriptions.

I've been known to not read the desc sometimes... though often times that is just when i'm breezing through a quest hub turning things in and picking up new quests. Unless something starts glowing on the ground, or a new ring appears on the mini-map, I always go back and at least read the objective though.

I play with a group of RL friends, who have made me the "official" quest reader. Not sure how I got this job. So I started making stuff up, totally unrelated to the quest. I started making it more and more outrageous until they finally caught on. They got the point. Smiley: grin
