Time of my life NPCs

May I please suggest that the NPCs from the GATE 'Time of my life' please be situated on a small pedestal with invisible walls so that people can not stand directly on them.

Or add one of every race to the very top platform please ... that might be easier.

It's very tricky to see them when 40 other people are not respecting the NPCs personal space ^^

I love this GATE ^o^

I couldn't agree with this more. A pedestal of some short that players cannot jump/stand on. There has been time and time again where a Roegadyn on my server would stand on the Miqo'te completely engulfing her body so she is unable to been seen. Yeah, its possible to do the event using another character model but... unless you know every single emote for every single race it's pretty tricky.

You do know you can examine them right? Unless you literally cannot select them due to crowding...

I feel like you are talking about the event where you ''spot the difference'' I am talking about Time of your life - the ''dancing'' game.

As I said. Putting one of every race ont he stage above us will be enough to solve the problem - or putting these NPCs on a small step which PCs can not stand on

Are there supposed to be dance masters for every race? I couldn't find an Elezen.

There is already a group of NPC's in the middle up on a platform that are not blocked by anyone. Stand in the middle and point your camera down and you'll see them :)

I didn't even know about those NPCs, I always used to the ones above everyone on the center platform. Zoom out all the way and angle the camera in such a way where you can see them up close.

There are NPCs on the platform you stand on?

I've always just looked at the NPCs way above everyone on a floating balloon-type stage way above the middle.

So it looks like what you're asking for is already there.

Yes, there is.
But since people didn't even know they were bloody there it just goes to show that they are being so crowded they are vanishing :o

The GATE isn't hard because you only need 10/16 to win top prize, but its pretty difficult to tell the difference between the subtle /angry or /shrug emotes when you have never seen a Hyur do them before this GATE - and that's the NPC you are using because your own race is being sat on ^^

The elezen are above your heads, my wife and I didn't notice this until yesterday when we panned our cameras upward and found them on a floating pedestal above the stage.

Niqo'te is life. Niqo'te is love. It's all Sunshine now.

I've not personally come across this issue, most people on my server seem to be respectful to other players in this particular context. However it is a potential issue, so it should be addressed and a pedestal would be the simplest way to go about correcting such a problem.

Im so glad the have almost every other NPC that matters in the MGS behind a counter. Imagine trying to queue for a race or trying to get a cactopot ticket lol

Don't you just love it when trolls come round and stand directly inside of the NPC? I watch them when they do it and they don't even want to complete the GATE >.>...

I couldn't understand the dancing game. I rushed the instructions just to get in on time. The 3 Hyur Highlanders in the sailor outfit, are they doing the correct emotes for this game or is there another Hyur that is doing the emotes for this game?

While we are at it, do the same for retainer summoning bells and gathering nodes.. nothing more annoying then having someone stand right on top of it.

Those NPCs have nothing to do with the GATE, it is only the NPCs on the stage. The Highlander dancers are above the rest of the dancers, zoom your camera out and you can spot them.

Have u ever experienced npcs loading on screen but not doing any emotes? Its hell lol as u have to rely on the chat log.
R.i.p ps3 limitations too much lol

Yes please! I usually stand near the miqote dancer cause i know the emotes of my species and sometimes it is okay, bot other times people from bigger races like elezen and roegadyn stand right on top or in front of her so nobody can see what she is doing. Either elevate them on platforms or create a french around them so they aren't obstructed.

Other pet peve is the emote chat spam cause most people don't seem to untick that box -.-

The French! Blocking assholes from blocking your fun since just now! XD

*changes to miner*

*hits Thread node*

*thread reappears!*

OMG FENCE.


how the HELL did I get that wrong T_T

Can someone explain me what "flawless" moves actually mean? I've been doing this GATE many times, spamming emotes between the verses just like everyone else and I keep failing still. Can't get more than 4/16. T_T

Then you are just doing the wrong emotes. I thought at first maybe you had to let the emote finish the animation to get the flawless, but literally all you have to do is spam the 4 emotes you need to do in quick succession and they will all be flawless as long as they are the correct emote. Also, make sure that you don't start doing your emotes until the 20 seconds timer begins after the 4th emote is shown, located by your duty list. Your emotes won't count if you try to do them right after the NPC does theirs. You have to see all 4 of them, watch for the timer to begin, then do your 4 emotes.

I'm lucky because, like Krosa said, there is a male Elezen on the top platform. I think all races are represented up there except Lalafell. Just stick a Lala in between the 4 NPC's up there and this problem should be solved.

Glad I could help ^^

I'm on Ragnarok and I have problem with people who decide to block the NPC as well. I really hope there's an invisible fence around the Lady of the Dance and Lord of the Dance NPCs.
