I believe the current logic is in error and should be considered for an update.

If you are in Blackreach specific sub zone and you zoom out that puts you to the Blackreach map and if you zoom out that puts you to the The Aurbis map.
However, if you are in The Aurbis map and you zoom in to Western Skyrim then you zoom into Blackreach.

I believe in a future update the zoom out order be adjusted to as follows: Blackreach < West Skyrim < The Aurbis (rather than current odd order.)

    I think the reason is simply that the Q4 DLC in the Reach will also have parts in Blackreach, but a different part of Blackreach which gets added to the same map.

    If you have the map of Blackreach and try to go back, where would it take you back to? Western Skyrim or the Reach? Since it can only take you to one, it takes you to the Aurbis, although I'd say Tamriel would be better.

    @Nemesis7884 That was by design.

    This is exactly why. The prologue Blackreach area from "East" Skyrim is shown and connected to the Greymoor Blackreach area. Odds are, this map will expand to with the Q4 DLC and when they enevitably create "Middle" Skyrim for whats hopefully a Winterhold Chapter, we will get more of Blackreach expanded too.

    Blackreach is one of the coolest parts about the chapter, I'm happy about the prospect of it expanding.

    They could of easily just made it a trial or group dungeon, they made the right decision by letting it grow, even if it means Skyrim will take at least 4 DLC's to fill out the map.
