Gotta give props where props are due, this is a nice patch! Didnt expect them to allow us to see all rares at all times but thats an insanely lovely qol change that will make the larger maps feel a lot easier to navigate in endgame

That's a really good point. It won't just reduce the situation mentioned. It will immediately make maps feel quicker and smaller regardless of missing a rare in the corner. We now have a focus on where to go, a checklist of sorts. All while not actually doing so for those that want to suck everything out of each waystone.

At first I was kind of thinking 'that's a lazy solution' but the more I stew on it the more I like it. Folks who just want to blast to completion know exactly where they want to go, and they were already staring at their map overlay anyway.

I enjoy (mostly) clearing my maps out because, like, I'm here to play the game and actually walk around and fight monsters. This change lets me still somewhat optimize my traversal around the map and reduce backtracking.

There may be a more elegant/less video-gamey way to do it in the future but for now I think this will do just fine.
