Set map markers on the ground, not just in the map.

I would like to be able to [right-click, or some other technique] on the ground in front of me to set a waypoint/map marker.

Currently, I can only do this on the map itself. In particular, tanking on Hami raids, I find it nearly impossible to re-locate myself to where I should be to taunt the proper Mitos. I have to put the map over my ENTIRE screen, zoom all the way in, and mark the map, then resize the map for my usual play... this is harder for me than it sounds. And even then, the map often places the marker WAYYY over my head, amking it nearly impossible to see. I'd like to be able to do it on the screen, rather than on the map.

I'm sure this has been requested before, but I haven't seen it adressed lately, and my search fu is weaksauce. Thank you and have a great day

I would love this. More cleanly, it would be nice to have something like a slash command for placing waypoints. If they don't want to let us specify the zone coordinates for the marker (no free exploration/history badges), then simply put the marker at the player's current location (/loc).

That's even better than simply clicking the ground somewhere, since it'll allow you to mark somewhere in the air (say, using your example, you're taunting a mito in the air and you need to fly up).

/setwaypoint - creates a waypoint on the minimap at your current location.

Do it, devs. NAO!
