Default Move the BMP NPC's to somewhere else

I feel that the Bonus Mission Pack NPC's should be moved from their current locations and put somewhere else. I'd like to see them moved because:

- Personally I liked the LA fountain having a bit of clear space around it, with some people just passing by. Now the fountain is crowded both by the NPC's, and by the players talking to them.

- People with the BMP will follow the NPC's to wherever they get moved to, providing its an easily accessible area. But since it currently looks like everyone else won't get access there* meaning that the NPC's are basically standing there taunting them about a feature they can't use.

*Please discuss your thoughts on if this should be changed in another thread.

As for where the NPC's could be moved to, I'm not really sure. I was thinking of asking the old RA outpost (from memory it was closed about a month before the factions release) attached to LA and sticking the NPC's there, but that would only make sense for the LA NPC's. Though with some tweaks the old TA outpost attached to droks might be made to look like it belongs in the mountains of Shing Jea island.

i don't really see any problems with them being there....the only problem i see, in my opinion, is that they would have to be moved for holiday events

I think it would be a good idea to move the NPCs because the fountain was so much more attractive before they got there. I don't want them out of LA though, maybe put them by one of the storages or by the guild NPCs.

In Lions Arch I think the best place to have put them down below it with the armor crafter and weapons smiths, across from them at the other fire and wall.

I think they should be moved too. Maybe they should be placed next to the big lion statue?

Opposite the armor/weapon crafters sounds good to me, less intrusive and still accessible.

That armor/weapon crafter area is usually pretty empty.

Actually that makes a lot of sense considering those collectors give out weapons. So you might as well throw them with the other guys who give weapons/ other combat things.

I completely agree. Could be that a-net just put them there temporarily 'til people got their fun out of the BMP, kind of like the way they put even NPC's in obvious places that everyone can see.

I think it would be really stupid to leave them in the middle of a popular town where half the population won't be able to use them. Seems to be rubbing salt in the wound of people who can't access it.

I think moving them off to the side somewhere between Magi and the guild cape guy would be better. Out of the way, yet still easy to find and accessable.

I agree with putting them opposite the Weapons and Armor crafters.

They do throw off the visual flow of the place where they're at. The crafter area is pretty empty in LA, you could stick them there.

It's kind of intrusive to have that them by the fountain in LA. They are placed well in Kamadan and to be honest i don't know where they are in KC.

I'm one of those people that had to do without the BMP and I find it mildly annoying.

I have the same feeling.

I remember day 1, a lot of people came there and began asking "What do those NPCs do?" "How can I take the books?", and when they did realize that they couldn't have the weapons they were really pissed (a couple of them even started insulting the players who were able to), while others said things along the line "that's unfair! Nobody told me"... and so on...

(Please note, I don't have BMP, and don't feel the need for it, I wouldn't pay more than 1$ for it.)

they are fine right where they are. who is to say when and if they are moved, you'll like that spot? I like the fountain crowded, like it should be.

-get over it.

Move them to Symon the Scribe, if they are to be movie. I've always thought Symon would be the quest giver in Prophecies for any historical events/mission.

I think less stuff should be centred around LA, Kaineng and Kamadan, they are crowded as it is with traders and the intercontinental commuting traffic.

Then there are the festivals, and the GW:EN guys, and now BMP guys.
