Downsing rod should only be able to show quality tiles lower than quality of the rod and user of rod's survival skills.

good then only big factions will get to kill each other, noobs will just leanto block the average wells.

also this idea is shite because if your node is surrounded by only lower q water it shouldnt show direction, and if it shows some further one then the next time you use it in the lower adjacent to the previous one the rod should go crazy and point you toward last node, or you can just keep walking in the previosu direction and check every tile if its there.

you are at q20 node and all around you ae q10 nodes there are 2 options, either the dowsing rod WONT work because you are in the best quality node in area or it points you to some far away better quality note, but the moment you step out of that q20 node into that q10 which was nearby the rod will again point you to the q20 node you just left

Have it tell quality of tile you stand on. I think player can figure this out.

I think that idea is not bad but you are retarded or somehow limited mentally.
Of course if you are standing exactly above the highest quality node that is nearby. It will say that its right below you or something.
I also think that player can think it off that they are standing right above it after some time. Except maybe you. Because you dont seem that smart of a guy.

maybe let it also generate a pop-up asking if you want to generate a well here too? o.0

downsing rods are supposed to find water, not let you know what quality it is, thats what you have a well for, if you dont want to bother with this part then maybe you think building the well is tedious as well... Dowsing rod should stay as it is, perhaps make some kind of foragable which would allow you to check the quality of water below you instead - rustroot style.
