A compass with markers (left to right): Respawn point/bed. Side quest, gravestone, main quest location 1, and NPC for the main quest.

The Compass is an overhead interface where players can navigate and find their respawn point/bed, death marker, active main/side quests, and the NPC markers needed for those active quests. The compass features four cardinal directions, north, south, east, and west, with a distance to the markers in metres. Players can also view other players if they are in a multiplayer world. Casting the Detect Ore + Clay spell can display nearby clay and ores up to 200m.
