Good I am not the only one who finds it annoying ^^

I know this is not a solution, but once you start juicing the map, you can rotate the single port to 1 o’clock position and it wont ever bother you again.

Now imagine doing this with a controller lol. Hitting the map device is the hardest part of mapping

you have lesser and lesser portals with more mods on maps (which what you should do at the end), rotate map device to always have some “open space” towards you.

it doesn’t help when you open invitations or somewhat with 6 portals

Miss my full sized map devices from PoE1

I would pay big money for a device that only gives one portal at a time (like that Vaal sacrifice one a while ago), has the time tracking like timekeepers, and has the “device” part of it a decent distance away so you can’t misclick

I miss click non stop unless I really take my time seeing what is selected which is barely noticible. Edit: You can rotate the portals out of the way when you edit your hideout.

Whole thing could be fixed with a singular portal and just count the revives elsewhere like in the map legend

I hate my life everytime I want to start a map

Just rotate your map device so none of the portals overlap it. Easy.

it’s a nightmare with a controller :(

Why did this change from poe1 , it’s so scrunched up and small in poe2 

PLEASE GIMME BACK MY BIG MAP DEVICE, PURELY TO HELP SOLVE THIS ISSUE.

Same lol

[removed]

try different map devices, some are easier to click on then others

I always rotate the map device so 2 portals straddle the main font.

Bump this post, I bought tree of souls skin to avoid this lol

Or give us any perment MTXs with the single portal and lights or flames or what ever to represent how many deaths are left. Unless I’ve missed it, I’ve seen streamers with but I can’t find any on the shop. I assume they were limited editions.

I’d just love to see 1-portal options for the map device (just a visual - nothing would change outside of that).

I don’t care about seeing several portals around my map device - and for the people that do; it would simply be an option - like many decorations have various options tied to them (for those that maybe aren’t aware; just scroll on a placed and selected decoration..), so nothing would be taken away from anyone.

I was using one of the mtx that shows how many mobs you killed of each rarity and it has the map device at the center but I had to swap to the djinn one because it has the map device at the front lol, it’s so annoying to accidentally go into the map again.

I have to be SOOOOO careful when clicking it due to my portal MTX LOL. It’s huge

Yes! It’s so annoying clicking on the portals.

I have a conspiracy theory that GGG did it on purpose to encourage people to buy portal device skins from cash shop.

yes yes yes, bro I guess we’re not alone T T so frustratinggggg omg

Some map devices this is a non issue cause of their design. For example the one in the divinity supporter pack.

Agreed

It’s even worse on controller tbh, so frustrating

Please GGG

I was thinking they could just make it partially asymmetrical and have a little open space in front of the device.

Just click on the label. Although I agree with you, specially on joystick, it’s annoying.

PLEASE!!!! Me and my friend always laugh at whoever does it because we constantly click it by accident on controller 

you can rotate the portal if you are running white or blue maps, you’ll have a gap between the portals

you can also run higher tier maps where u don’t have all 6, and just rotate it so that no portals are covering the front

This is intentional to get you to buy a different map device mtx.

I always press “z” to hide the portal labels when going to use the map device.

I found a temp solution, not ideal, but if you click Z to disable temporarily the labels, the waypoint gets highlighted and I misclick portal less.

swap to wasd

Guys. Pro tip.

Open a 3 portal map

Click to modify ur hideout

Click a map device

Rotate it about 120 degrees

Click “save”

Just buy a P2W map device, problem solved

100% especially now with the huge loading screen times… it’s like interstellar “this maneuver is going to cost us 51 years!”

Rotated my map device so the portals are behind the device and I have clear access to activate it.

GGG’s philosophy in a nutshell create the problem sell the solution stonks

It s even worse on console.

Rotate the map device ;)

If you rotate the map device and play with maps that have at least one portal less, you get a pretty comfortable gap.

Can we have one portal for quest related places it’s pretty annoying to handle with a controller when there are six portals

BRO I was about to say I never remembered them being that close 

bought the water gin device exactly for this. The map device is not in the centre, which helps a lot.

Temp fix - stand above the map device so the text is visible from behind the portal, and carefully click on it.

As a solution for GGG, since the portal doesn’t disappear, just have ONE portal, no need for 6 of them.

Rotate the portal device and only play with 4 portals max will fix it. Or spend $ on a map device can fix it as well

Just rotate the map device so there’s a gap

Just use the bigger version of the map device? What you are asking for is already in-game. Or does that not help
