A plea for tracking nodes in World of Warcraft
While the World of Warcraft servers, along with the official threads, are down for Blizzard‘s weekly maintenance tweaks, what can we Warcrafters do? Well I know you can always browse through the halls and realms of our QJ WoW blog, but we all yearn a little more interaction right? That same urge made us visit the WoW European forums bringing us upon this pretty interesting post by Black Horde member Kazuum.
Basically, he’s complaining about the challenging task of looking for nodes to mine. According to him, most of the time he’s having a hard time tracking his progress and his minimap isn’t providing any help at all. Anyway, to get a clearer picture, here’s a copy of his post in the WoW EU forums:
Riding/flying around looking for nodes to mine is somewhat boring/dangerous at times. Navigate terrain, keep track of your direction, avoid pesky elites etc. Most of the time Im not even looking at the minimap, and never know when I fly right past a node. So my question to you skilled AddOn-makers out there: Can a mod be made that Pings the minimap or makes somekind of alert when a node appears on my minimap?
We sometimes are having the same dilemma so we’re gonna repeat his plea: “Can a mod be made that Pings the minimap or makes some kind of alert when a node appears on my minimap?” We know we’ve been hosting a lot of cool mods here, but we still haven’t got across anything that could help us with node tracking. Do you have something that can help Kazuum?
