Collection helper isn't showing anything.
I'm trying to use the collection helper to find assassin bugs, I have it set to insects but nothing is showing on the world map, any idea?

If you are doing it for a quest, the collection helper won't be of much use. The game/quest will automatically show you where they are. However, the assassin bugs won't show up very often. You have to keep checking the entire map until you finally see the few that show up. They are also very hard to catch, so if you haven't been practicing bug-catching, you might fail a bunch of times.

The collection helper is a very valuable tool. You'll be able to find gems and metals much easier, as well as fishing sites, if your into fishing.

Another valuable item can be obtained in Egypt, if you have World Adventures. It will help you find excavation sites and items in tombs.

Always make sure to only use one of these helpers at a time, and turn them off as soon as you finish using them. They can cause some people a lot of lag or freezing if they forget.

That's true, I guess it will encourage me to branch out my gameplay. I own all the xpacs but my gameplay usually involves, get job, seduce the whole town, die, get bored. :kyouclannad:
