Knight In Shining Armor.17 Posted February 23, 2019 Share Posted February 23, 2019 Could we make the NPCs in LA not have priority dialog over opening bank? I cannot tell which NPC is doing this because multiple players overlap that area also accessing their bank, but whoever it is their spoken greeting happens instead of bank opening.

Illconceived Was Na.9781 Posted February 23, 2019 Share Posted February 23, 2019 Until ANet has a chance to do something, you can work around the problem in a couple of ways. What I do is bind a key to the "next ally" command and spam that until the bank or chest or relevant NPC is selected. Works a treat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaFishBob.6518 Posted February 23, 2019 Share Posted February 23, 2019 Or you could use a crafting station to access the bank as well. Bonus, you're right next to a merchant as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inculpatus cedo.9234 Posted February 23, 2019 Share Posted February 23, 2019 Or, if it's not the Mystic Forge you also need, use any of the other Cities or areas with Bank Access. There's WvW and PvP, also many different maps. Another option is acquiring a Lounge Pass, often offered at a discount, and can be acquired with Gold.Good luck.

If I remember correctly the DR one says "I'm rich you know" which is the last thing I want to hear when I'm trying to see if selling everything I own will let me afford 1 new thing. Especially because he never answers when I ask if he's willing to share.Rambling aside, when this happens I tend to just click on the banker, or move to another banker, depending on which seems easier at the time. It would be nice if Anet could do something to fix it, but it doesn't bother me a lot even when it happens frequently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knight In Shining Armor.17 Posted February 23, 2019 Author Share Posted February 23, 2019 I have a permanent fractal pass, but LA is where I park my main character. I always try to return him there before I logout. I'd like the option to shove or kick the NPC out of the way, preferably into the "more violets less violence" lady Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Illconceived Was Na.9781 Posted February 23, 2019 Share Posted February 23, 2019 Other options: you can create an account bound city scroll so any of the racial cities plus Ebonhawke for ~100-175 gold (there's one for LA too, but it requires combining elements of the other six, so it's a lot more expensive).Example:Rata Sum Portal ScrollCosts:50 mystic coins ~65g7 piles of mystic dust ~2g2 mystic keystone crystals ~2gEssence of [city] 20-150g (depending on if buy/sell offer, which city)By comparison, a typical "lounge pass" retails for 1000 gems, which costs ~325 gold (if converting to gems) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phs.6089 Posted February 24, 2019 Share Posted February 24, 2019 Just use crafting stations in LA.I don't even go next to that bank crowded with people, violets every other second and usually a troll Merchant/Box spawned on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sorudo.9054 Posted February 24, 2019 Share Posted February 24, 2019 or, and this could be a shocker to some, they just remove (or disable interaction with) the NPC's around banks so this problem doesn't exist Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Donari.5237 Posted February 24, 2019 Share Posted February 24, 2019 Another work around is to glance at what your F prompt will do. "Greet" means you have a useless NPC. "Talk" means you have an interactive NPC, in this case the bank. You can shuffle around until the prompt says "Talk." I generally just run up to stand on top of the bank NPC (or the center of the mass of players there, heh), take a split second to verify I have "Talk" and then press F.
