Guild Wars 2

This has been bugging me for a while as I think it use to be this way, but don’t know how to change it back if it is even possible.

In short – can we “anchor” the mini-map so that it always keeps north at the top and the icon representing yourself has its direction change?

The problem is that I often use it “at a glance” and so hunting down which side the “N” is on takes additional time and sometimes during critical moments.

2nd last button on the right side, the little arrow does exactly that.

I just want to be able to lock the mini-map in place so I’m not accidentally scrolling it rather than moving myself around….. can’t begin to tell you how many times that’s gotten me killed. >.<

Click on the arrow icon on the bottom right corner of the mini map. You’ll need to hover over the mini map to see it. This stop the mini map from turning with your character.

Would be nice if they brought back the second map like in GW1. One that turns with you and one that doesn’t. Although without the dots on the mini map that is no longer as important but resource nodes have similar issues.

Thank you very much, now I feel silly for not noticing
