Okay… my Living Story goal in the upper right has a pointer directing me to it now. Does this do something else? Because I already have the green star on my mini map pointing out my destination. Does it serve some other function? Or is it totally redundant?

Well, it can also direct you to the next step in your personal story, or things you still need to find for World Completion. So I think it’s kinda neat, although time will tell whether it’ll prove to be more annoying than helpful.

If that happens, though, you can turn it off entirely, or adjust your preferences to it.

Ahh… thanks. I was busting my brain trying to find something in the Options. Overlooked that. (I was just hunting through the check boxes.) I will play with it, but my first impression is that the pointer is just additional screen clutter. Been doing okay without it for 2 years.
