Guild Wars 2

I agree this needs changed or reverted back.

Just mapped Metrica Province with the new changes. If I didn’t know where the Hero Points were I would seriously be mad at whoever thought of this new colour. They are so incredibly easy to miss it’s not funny.

Seriously guys. This was a really really really big mistake. If you can’t get the new icon in the old colour (for whatever reason), change it back to the old icon completely. This is ludicrous.

Mapped at least three areas on an alt over the holiday. A bright, saturated, non-earth-tone color like magenta on an upside-down triangle would be better. Make the symbol hollow before and filled afterwards like normal. Outline in black or white, if necessary.

Some shades of blue can have reduced visibility over water so keep that in mind if blue is used, again.

A good symbol should poke you in the eye and be easily distinguished from other symbols in use.

The first time I saw one, my mind interpreted it as a commander tag.

Agree, the old blue (or anything bright) would be appreciated. I already have to backtrack to some POIs that I miss during exploration, I don’t like doing it for hero points as well.

Just today I have been doing map completion on Malchor’s Leap and finding those challenges on the map was a real pain. A different colour would save the day.

I have a visual disability, but found the old blue points much easier to find than the new remake. I find it virtually impossible to see them now. The new shape of the icon is fine. Could you please bring back the blue color.

I agree that the color should be changed back to blue. This new color disappears into the map. Once you scroll up high enough it can’t be seen at all.
