How to change passive tree tab view settings in Path of Exile?
Solution 1:
After trying around for a while I discovered that two things are saved for as long as you stay logged in on a character:
- Zoom level
- Mini-skill tree of ascendancy class being open or not.
They will default to zoomed in as much as possible with ascendancy skill tree open on selecting a character. The location of where exactly you were looking is never saved, and always resets to your characters starting position in the grid.
In speed runs, the players probably zoom out as much as possible since they know where all the nodes they need are, and thus it looks like it stays like they left it.
