:*The quality of the compass affects its accuracy. A low quality compass can vary by as much as 45 degreeshow long it takes to disappear when moving and how long it takes to reappear when standing still.:*While you are moving, the compass will tend to jitter and point in random directionsdisappear after a time. At QL1, this time is negligible. At QL30, this time is 2 seconds. At QL70, this time is 10 seconds. At QL99, if it were possible, only settling once this time would be 20 seconds.:*When you stand still for have stopped, the compass will appear after a few time. At QL1, this time is 20 seconds. At QL30, this time is 10 seconds. At QL70, this time is 2 seconds. Lower quality compasses take longer to settleAt QL99, were it possible, this time would be negligible.
:*A finished compass cannot be improved. Your best bet is to use high quality components to make it. Additionally they can't be repaired, other than with the [[mend]] spell.
