Mapping and Exploration (Find Everything Faster)
These ESO Console Add-ons are great for navigating the world:
- HarvestMap: Displays resource nodes, chests, and heavy sacks directly on your map, compass, and even in the 3D world.
- Votan's Minimap: Lightweight Mini map that supports all map pin types.
- Murf's Skyshards / Simple Skyshards: Shows Skyshards on the map. Critically, they only display the locations of Skyshards you have not yet collected, preventing map clutter.
- Murf's Lorebooks: Similar to Skyshards, this tool shows uncollected Lorebooks on the map, helping with leveling up the Mages Guild skill line.
- Murf's Treasures / Map of Many Riches: Marks Treasures maps, crafting surveys, and Tales of Tribute clues directly on the world map. Map of Many Riches also makes Scribing Scripts sparkle and can be configured to show icons only for maps, surveys, or scripts you currently carry.
- Eyes of the Undaunted: Marks the location of bosses and champions on your map when entering delves, public dungeons, and group dungeons.
If you don't want clutter on your in-game map, you can use the Interactive Elder Scrolls Online Map on your tablet or phone!
