Default Quest mob missing gamewide?

Or only on PVP servers?

It's a banker NPC in JW required for a quest line:



I assume (but do not know) that he was removed from Nag because he's a banker, by someone who also didn't remember he is a quest NPC. He's supposed to be in the third building in Danak Shipyard.

He isn't where he's supposed to be on Nagafen for sure, and it's not just today. I hate doing a quest and being prevented from finishing by one missing step.

I don't know PVP stuff but why would they remove a banker? How is going to the bank a PVP advantage?

You can quickly get rid of the looted coin, so you don't lose it when you get killed by another player.

Default Re: Quest mob missing gamewide?

I am unsure about pvp so bear with me, but if Danak Shipyards is open to pvp then people might sit in stealth in that room and wait for people to come in to the bank to drop off their plats or whatnot and gank em before they can. If thats the case enough people might have complained about trying to go to the bank just to be killed. If thats not the case he could be under the world or they removed him for some stupid reason. I wouldn't be surprised if it was for the reason I mentioned though.

1st lesson: Before going to bank or mailbox, get an PvP 30sec immunity;-)

So there is not real bank/mailbox camping. Just flyer camping, because if you see them, its too late;-)

If you are just going to remove bankers on NPC servers, please don't put quest updates on them. This is ridiculous.

Put the damn bankers back in, let people use them at their own risk.

The banker exists on Venekor at the moment. Sometimes he's up, other times he's not.
He's been deliberately put back just for the quest though - I can tell this because there's supposed to be at least two bankers in Kunzar Jungle (they're marked on EQ2 maps) that aren't there for us.

Default Re: Quest mob missing gamewide?

You know what's funny is that I used the banker that isn't supposed to be there... and I'm on nagafen.

SO Taear has spoken nothing but the truth... (about this anyway)

TBH I didn't take a screen shot because I just believed the quest to have been fixed after several petitions from myself (and I'm assuming others)..

Anyway, what was even more strange is that you have to speak to "somers the Hard" to actually complete the quest. WHich doesn't sound strange until you come to hail him... with a book over his head indicating a quest is complete and you need to hail him for the final reward.

I have already done every other quest in JW so I know I didn't already have a quest outstanding with "somers the Hard" but still when I hailed him... nothing happened..

I petitioned this and a developer litterally logged onto my account and completed the quest for me. As explained from my petition.

Anyway, the banker was present at some point and I don't know why he was up TBH..

P.S. This is the last quest and the reward sucks tbh..
