Vegeta.2563 Posted December 15, 2019 Share Posted December 15, 2019 Back on March 5th 2019, A patch released which made banners only interactable by the owner.Banners can now only be picked up by the warrior who summoned them.Meaning the interact key (F by default), would allow the owner to be able to pick up the banners.. and I was thinking. We have people with Personal Black Lion Merchant, or Personal Black Lion Trading Post, or even the 2 week Golem Banker that no one else can interact with, however people love to drop these on top of things you need to loot (like take Auric Basin meta for example). If having these items switched over to use the same thing the banners are, it would help cut down people trying to do this sort of thing. I do not see a negative part about switching this over as only the user can talk to the npc anyway. The single use versions would still be normal and can be spoken to by anyone.

Shining One.1635 Posted December 15, 2019 Share Posted December 15, 2019 It would be better to remove those personal NPCs entirely. The Personal Black Lion Merchant should work like the Permanent Portable Provisioner. It opens a shop without spawning an NPC. The Golem Banker should work like the Bank Access Express, giving access to the bank without spawning an NPC. Save the NPCs for the items that allow other players access.

Gop.8713 Posted December 15, 2019 Share Posted December 15, 2019 I wouldn't consider it a terribly high priority but I don't see a downside to either suggestion . . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YtseJam.9784 Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 I have a similar thread asking to make all the personals invisible, and I would also like the option to have different keys for interacting with nodes and toys that people place, it's getting really old kids putting aviator, bubble head, fun boxes and teleports on chests on meta events.

Teratus.2859 Posted December 19, 2019 Share Posted December 19, 2019 I don't have a problem with the NPC's but I do with people who intentionally drop them on things you need to interact with, this should count as greifing imo and players who do it should be punished with temp bans, repeat offenders eventually being perma banned.

But I still want them to be usable by all people that need that service. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't do metas much, but when i face problem with banners and stuff placed in one spot, using 'Target Next Ally' allows me to get a target on banners and use them one by one.

Fortunately it doesn't show up if you already had the buffs it gives unfortunately it still shows up if the banner does nothing due to providing a weaker buff(this can happen if it is the middle of an event area and you are trying to ress someone who just happens to be near where the banner was placed).
