my friend told me that if i go from any place to another place the path that i traveled(run/fight) would been save on the Map Area (push U to activate)..

but for somereason, when i go from one two to another map or place the path i traveled doesnt stay on the u-map, it always starts clean.

i was hopin to be a runner...so is there any way to make my track stay on the u - map?

thx for answering

Do you mean that the map re-"clouds" itself or that the trail of red dots disappear? The red dots will always disappear as far as I know, but your map shouldn't be fogging over if you've already been there.

When you cross to a new area through a portal, your traces are erased for the previous areas. In other words, traces are kept only for the current area, until you leave it. Currently, there is no way to prevent this.

Well, maybe not the whole map, but at least the easiest and shortest route. It's not really that hard, really, after countless tries. And most runners will specialize on a few certain runs, as opposed to knowing *every*single*run*possible* by heart.

And wonder how messy the map was if the trails stuck between zonings. Mine would be nothing but red dot by now

lol yeap, i have the run from Ascalon -> Sanctum Cay with all the Cities in between Memorized, along with all of the desert. I don't even need to have my map or even use my compass up to do the run.

I'm not even a "Runner for Hire" but only know it because of Running Guildies that have already beaten the game.
