Map and map icons | Game basics and exploration Neverwinter Guide

Last update: 11 May 2016

As a new player you really want to know where you are. You can toggle the local map with "M" key or by clicking on the compass icon by the minimap. In Neverwinter every single element important for your or not is marked on the map

After pressing "M" you will see large map of the area, at the beginning the majority of it will be slightly dimmed (covered by "fog of war"), it means that you haven't been in this part yet. Discovering the map as a whole pays with finding treasure chests, viewpoints, new tasks and, of course, better readability of map itself.

Under the map you will see the coordinates (X and Y) of your current location, option to zoom map (you can also zoom using mouse wheel), button allowing you to center map view on your character and the Change Instance button for changing location instance.

On the right side of the map window is the legend, clicking on any element will center the map on it - Map and map icons - Game basics and exploration - Neverwinter - Game Guide and Walkthrough
