World Events should be shown on the map. Too many times they are hidden by clouds or hard to see because of a storm. The Ghost Fleet is especially difficult to spot sometimes. A simple Icon on the map in your ship's map would clear this up. Also, the display in the sky should change to show progression both as it gets more completed or closer to despawning. For instance, the Ashen Lord tornado could slowly desaturate as it gets closer to despawning or as the Ashen Lord gets closer to being defeated the tornado could increase in intensity.

Speaking out because of server hopping? If yes, No.

Why? The best time is not knowing.
@burnbacon not just for server hopping, but in general they are hard to spot sometimes. It's way too frustrating to have a world event despawn as you are getting close after sailing across the map, and seeing it getting close to completion could drive people to fight over it more, which is what Rare seems to want

post season 8 it doesn't really matter, fofs make a noise and the reaper/athena hopping changed entirely as it went from high chance of appealing activity to a mixed bag, an athena and/or reaper can just be hgers now
it would be a minimal damage qol change post season 8
@wolfmanbush said in Updates to World Events on the map and in the sky:
sky indicator optional and same goes for marking on the map imo
big qol change there imo
earlier in the game it wouldn't be good for risk/reward but we are far past it being relevant in the current environment and the one going forward.
Minimal harm now and significant qol increase
This, the sky effects are ugly IMHO, the map would be way better.
@burnbacon "Speaking out because of server hopping? If yes, No."
That doesn't make sense, you can look at the sky by walking out of the tavern, to see the map you have to go to the ship. It would be harder to server hop for events if the sky effects were gone.
@skunkmunkee I don’t mind a symbol on the map, so sure, why not
But I don’t agree with a progress indicator or something like that...there would be 2 different counters then, one when it despawnes if nobody is doing it and one if someone's doing it...this would just serve the PvP crowd and demotivates the PvE peopleIt’s like having extra clutter on the map which I don’t think is needed. The clouds/weather/etc… don’t take long to change throughout the world, if it’s hidden, you’ll soon see it. Also, if you’re really familiar with the world, you’ll be able to pick up if it’s a fleet behind the storm clouds, etc… You just get used to it all and know what’s what. I think it’s mostly the fleet that can sometimes be hidden, everything else pretty much stands out because of its colours, regardless the clouds around.
Makes it more realistic too, we can’t expect everything to be right in front of us, it’s too easy and not so fun, we’ve got to go out there and find these things. Make a proper adventure out of it.@lj-marst0n I've been playing for a year and a half and I play with people that have been playing for more than four years, and all of us have trouble figuring out what the world event is. There's been no "getting used to it". I don't know what clutter you see on the world map? The only thing that's ever there are Reaper ships, Reaper chests and very occasionally a key. I've never considered it even close to cluttered.
