Some classes and races are just naturals at knowing where they are at. This would be an innate form of a sextant. Scouts and bards would be a natural fit for this skill. A couple of races could use it. I would actually say human, and helf because they are all around the realms w/o restriction.

I think this would be a cool addition for scouts to have.
Although even if they know roughly where they are, I don't see the RP sense in how they would know exactly where they are without a sextant.

Not exact coordinates, no.


You are in the south eastern corner of Ayamao.
Your group is in the center of Taslamar.





I could get behind that.

Not innate, like swim only id give this at Journeyman or vet level, thats about the time someone really gets in tune with "The world".

Some of us already have that innate. Sadly we have spent far far to many hours on SK. Using both legend1 and legend2 I use to be able to tell where I was with nothing more than the 8 squares around me with about a 95% accuracy. Ive not played seriously in quite a few months so that has probably slipped quite a bit. I dont really see a point in hard coding this with out the sextant numbers.

Legend 2 assumes that everyone plays in color, which I'm certain there are still some people who don't. I don't see why you'd object to it. YOU might know where you are, but that doesn't help newbie joe, now does it?
