The Compass serves to point fans toward nearby Aether Currents, and using the item will do just that. When you click on it, a pop-up on your screen will let you know where the nearest Aether Current is in terms of direction and your distance from it.

Start heading in the direction that the Compass indicates, and keep clicking on it along the way to make sure you're moving in the right direction. Once you find the Current, interact with it by right-clicking on it, and you're all set.

To note, not all of them are found on the map. Some of them are obtained from completing side quests — the side quests you want to check for these are marked with the blue background and symbol. Some of these will not appear until certain main scenario quests, and side quests have been completed first. Even still, you should check your Compasses somewhat frequently while exploring to knock out all of the Currents found in that fashion.

How to Check Out All Aether Currents you have collected?

1). Go to the "Travel" menu.
2). Select "Aether Currents."
3). Or type "/aethercurrent" into your log.
4). It brings up the display of all Aether Currents you have collected.
