Map is confusing - Need help to find allies

Hi,

My thought

I always feel stupid when I join a group and have to ask them where they are. As time will go and more people will start calling farm spot by name it will become increasely harder to figure out where people are when you are new. The same is also true for shrine, they are kind of hard to find.

Why it's important
I do feel like it the fact that you can't really figure out easily where to go by finding easily member of your group on the map, will start creating a form of exclusion for newer player. When you won't know where the camp is, people will kick you out after a certain time.

I do really like the overall map design, but point of interest and feature such as finding allies could be improve imo. Am I alone to feel like this ?

    I would also like stuff as POI and other knowledge related feature to be included. Maybe have a cartographer artisan skill tree because at this point the map itself is really nice. The fact that the detail level change as you zoom in is really nice too. But the overall information you can get from the map at any given time doesn't feel that useful and I feel as it will only get worst as the map size increase.

    ATM, POI are hard to find, special difficulty area are hard to find, group member are hard to find, and overall information about the world are also hard to find. Don't get me wrong, knowledge about an area is something which should not come that easily - but it should also be something you can expect to receive. Especially when you have such long travel time.

    The map also intermittently loses your pointer/anyone you are grouped with's pointer and you have no idea where anyone is.
