Treasure Trails/Guide/Compass

A "compass" is a part of a treasure trail. This update was released on 4 August 2010.

When you click on the elite clue, the screen will centre north and point the direction of next clue. It only gives direction, not distance. Try teleporting to various cities to triangulate the location of the clue. Another method is to teleport to certain locations by using Fairy rings to save money and make the triangulation more precise. When you are standing in the correct location, an X will appear in the middle of the compass interface.

Note: Any of these clues can trigger a dangerous Guthix wizard. Always be prepared! Remember bringing a Meerkat familiar with the scrolls eliminates the need to kill a Guthix wizard if one spawns on the compass location.

Trivia

When inside of a Player-owned house, on a boat, in Zanaris, or inside any dungeon the compass will just spin in circles.
