    Zygor Guide Arrow Not Trustworthy at the moment

    Ever since the update for WoD the guide arrow isn't nearly as reliable as it used to be. It will tell you to use your garrison hearth and fly somewhere that really puts you nowhere near where you are supposed to go.

    Now I understand this update changed a bunch but I would like to know when this will be fixed. Zygor was always rock solid for when to use your hearth, when to use flight paths, etc... now... it's a crap shoot.

    When are you planning to have these types of issues fixed? I have been patiently waiting for the guide to update to the quality it has been in the apst and now it has been nearly two weeks and doesn't seem to be as good as it should be.

    I am willing to wait but I would like to know when it can be expected. Having it fixed after I already have three 100's won't suit me nearly as much and won't make the value of purchase as solid either.

    Thank you for your time.

    Most of these issues should already be resolved. Are you sure you have the latest guide version being used in game?

      I am currently using 5.0.10995. Is this not the current version?

        That is the current guide version but I haven't been seeing any really odd travel system routing like you've been describing. Can you post a screen shot of the Travel System section of the guide viewer options?

          Here's my settings. I can change it to fast if required but I have never had to in the past.

          Second question. Right now when I first login I sometimes get gear suggestions that are just wrong. Is this normal? They seem to go back to normal after a minute or two.

            With the latest guide updates I did not see many problems with the travel system.
            I had a few minor issues with the transition points ("go up this path") in Draenor when I left the suggested path and I think one or two flight points are not recognized by the guide (an Alliance one in Talador), I'll check that with the next character or by manually setting waypoints (you can set them by shift clicking on the map) near those flight points.
            But apart from that using flight points and Hearthstone worked pretty well. It really often is faster using the garrison hearthstone and getting a flight from there than running across a zone or even taking a flight across a whole zone.

              I don't disagree that the travel system generally works. I trust it almost all the time to be honest but sometimes it just seems all over the place. It is specifically by bladespire fortress in frostfire ridge that I was ahving issue on my Horde Paladin today. It seems like perhaps it can't handle that zone right now?

                Buildings and caves are a bit difficult, yesterday I noticed while questing inside caves the travel system tried to direct me out of the cave while the waypoint dot was inside the cave.
                But a few days ago it was working in the same caves.
                Normally such issues got fixed with the next guide release so I didn't get too concerned but I'll keep an eye on it.

                  If you do see specific areas where it seems to have problems please let us know. This is probably something with how we have that area mapped. For the cave problems, what happens if you exit the cave and then re-enter it slowly? I'm guessing most of the time you enter it while mounted so you're moving fast as you're going in.

                    With the latest guide version I did not run into cave problems today. I only noticed it in the previous guide version and as the travel system seems to be constantly worked on I did not pay further attention as such issues often go away with an update.
                    But you are right, I normally ride full speed into caves

                      I've just started doing the quests in Lunarfall and the arrow is constantly telling me to "Leave Garrison", even while I'm well outside it. I have to either go to where it's pointing (slowly) to get it to change or skip a step forward in the guide then back again. I'm now back in my (yet to be built) garrison area standing right next to Baros Alexston to accept "Establish Your Garrison" and the arrow is STILL telling me to leave the garrison 113 yards away.

                      This is with the latest update, 10995.

                        I've had a few toons going thru this and still have not seen any arrow problems before the garrison was built. Try doing a full guide wipe/reset.

                        1. Exit WoW
                        2. Go to the WoW/Interface/Addons folder and delete the ZygorGuidesViewer folder
                        3. Go to the WoW/WTF/Account/<accountname>/SavedVariables folder and delete the Zygor files in there
                        4. Run the installer client and install a fresh copy of the guides
                        5. Go back in game and see if that fixed it

                          Now that the garrison has been established it's working OK. I'll try your suggestions if it happens again next time I do the pre-garrison quests.

                            i'll admit the LEVELING Guides for the zones seam to be fine now, but when doing the Garrison Leveling Guide, it did tell me to go to some area out in the middle of no where. one was for turing in resources at stormshield, had me way out in the middle of a zone.
                            i wonder if that guide just needs a tad more polish. the other leveling guides have been spot on for the most part.

                              Admittedly the Garrison guides are just a bonus guide (free to all WoD customers) and since it's a bonus guide it's been a lower priority when compared to the other guides like Leveling and Professions. We have not forgotten about the Garrison guides and we will get them polished up more but we're still trying to get the bugs fixed in the major guides first.
