Where does the Calypso's Compass lead me to?
Solution 1:
The compass leads you to a secret room that contains 2 chests. The chests usually contain blueprints or stat upgrades.
From my experience they were good blueprints (armor I was not finding in the area normally).
You will not be able to locate the room without the compass.
edit: user2339067 says he was able to get to the room without the compass, so it might be possible. I have yet to find/confirm this information independently with any other online resources.
Solution 2:
Some additional information:
You can find the room without the compass, there will however not be ANY indications for it except for seeing an up arrow in a random location in the room.
