Map markers

[Kelrycor]

Is there any way to tell if you found everything in a location?

If there is a challenge and you concluded it, the map marker will be flagged with a check mark. Else there seem not to be any clue if you missed an Atherna Bypass, or another hidden loot stash, or even a small puzzle.

When it goes from Bright White/Green/Orange/Whatever to "Dark Grey" with a check mark - means its cleared. Doesn't stop you from revisiting...you occasionally find goodies.

May not mean its free of "all" loot - ill let devs speak for that.

This is not quite right. A check mark will only be present if there was a challenge. If not, it will stay white after site was visited. And it doesn't change if you collected all or missed important stashes.

What I already found out is:

* White frame with question mark: not visited yet
* Yellow frame: main side mission marked
* Blue frame: side mission marked
* Red frame: marked as target destination by player
* White frame: no mission or not marked by player
* White frame with a check mark: you visited the site before and you concluded the special challenge

* Green dot or check mark: you are currently at this location
* White dot: you visited the site before (and if a challenge exists, you didn't concluded it)

White dot or white frame with check mark both don't tell you if you found all important stuff there (like Aeterna Bypasses). This is the basic problem. I cannot tell of it is worth looking around again at those sites or not. It seems that the devs forgot to implement a marker that will give you a hint to this. Or they are planning to implement something else like a perk of a new (not known yet) companion to help you with that later in the gameplay.

Hope so.

Yea I get the OP's point and question here. Would be nice when you have an "unexpected signal" or the like pop-up that you know when you've fully exploited what you can discover in said area.

A revisit of the map is already planned.

Thanks for the heads up. I will see forward to it.

Just want to pop in here for the official confirmation: Yes, more info on the map to show completion of areas is coming in the future!

Where can I find info on this, google returns basically this question. So, I see there's greyed out check marks and greyed out check marks with a white chevron below them. I cant figure out what the difference is.

I have the same question.

Check marks indicate whether or not you have completed the location objective if it has one. For instance if it says "find the hidden stash" while in an area and you have, then a check mark will appear for that location.

The check mark does NOT mean you have 100% the area, you will be notified while in the location when you have 100% an area, but nothing shows on the map that this has occurred. Later in the game you will get a companion perk that tells you the completion percentage of all locations on the map. You can go back to those locations that you have not 100% completed to complete them at that time. There's no reason to know this prior to that point because you can't possibly 100% complete the game until after you have acquired that companion.

An upwards facing Chevron indicates the mobs there are above your level. A downwards facing Chevron indicates the mobs are below your level.

Thank you for the detailed information.
