Patch 4.3: Minimap elevation/altitude

One of the problems with a two-dimensional minimap in a three-dimensional world is that it’s hard to gauge elevation or altitude based on a fixed point on a map. Vashj’ir, the underwater starting zone in Cataclysm, is a particularly unique offender, where the entire zone had targets that could be above or below you.

With patch 4.3, a new indicator will appear when you hover over your target’s icon on the minimap. A small arrow pointing up or down will indicate if your target is above or below you in elevation. If there is no arrow, it means you are on or near the level plane with your target. I love this addition, and it will hopefully make zones like Vashj’ir and Stormpeaks a bit easier to navigate.
