What are the dots and circles on the maps?

0

We use a center point and radius system to plot the locations of creatures and NPCs – since the coordinates you get from something are never completely accurate, this is a good way to get close enough. For most non-wandering NPCs, if you head to the center point listed you’re pretty much guaranteed to find them. For wanderers, the accuracy of the map will depend on how many times the target has been seen. With enough data, a wandering NPC should end up being represented by a whole bunch of intersecting circles that represent their entire path.
