Guild Wars 2

How useful would the ability to search for way points on the map be? I think it would be great if I could type Metrica Province and the map warps to that area or way point.

What do you guys think?

Thanks!

Doesn’t sound very useful unless people are memorizing names of waypoints as opposed to locations of waypoints on a map.

I think the only time I’ve wanted something like that was while trying to hunt down the last missing POI/WP/Heart for a map and I was comparing it with the list from the wiki.

I tend to use a close zoom level, so you’re right I don’t always pay attention to the location on the overall map, but that’s not really the point. The zoom level at which you have to be to see say “Greyhoof Meadows” when on top of “Kessex Hills” to find the “Meadows Waypoint” means a lot of scrolling… It would be nice to just be able to type Greyhoof Meadows, or even the way point name or Kessex Hills… etc, why not make it slightly easier? I would save just a few steps, but if I play a lot those steps add up. It’s useful for areas of the map people mention without linking as well.

Thanks for your input though!
