    No Chocobo Porter available for Buscarron's Druthers

    Even though I have my own mount, I like to take Chocobo porters down to certain places if I need to go AFK really quick for a drink, some exercises, etc.

    Ever since launch I've noticed that Buscarron's Druthers doesn't appear in the list of locations available to take a porter to from Gridania. Yes, I have the location unlocked, I can use it from Quarrymill to the Druthers, but from nowhere else. The porter also runs right through the Druthers on the way TO Quarrymill, so I know it'd be an easy fix.

    It's not because it doesn't have an aetheryte, either. You can take a porter from Ul'dah to Vesper Bay, and I did so frequently when I needed to do story quests while leveling.

    I have seen this bug on every character I have (I've gotten 4 to the point where they'd have this location unlocked, on two different servers, Balmung and Gilgamesh).

    Any help with this is appreciated!

    *Template, for the sake of being proper*

    Time: Any
    Frequency: Always
    World name: Balmung/Gilgamesh
    Character name: Umi Khou
    NPC name: Cingur
    Monster name: N/A
    Class/Level: Any
    Party or solo: Either
    In-game time: Any time
    Area and coordinates: New Gridania
    Steps:
    1. Talk to Cingur and select Chocobo Porter
    2. Observe that there is no Buscarron's Druthers even if you have been there and unlocked it!

    Just hit the dismount button as you pass through on the way to Quarrymill? That's what I always do.

    I am pretty sure this isn't a bug, at any rate.

    That defeats the purpose of being able to go afk and being in the Druthers when I get back. I'll usually be in Quarrymill, then I have to ride back manually or take another porter back. It's a hiccup that makes the game lack polish, and I have every right to bring it up for the purpose of helping the devs make this game everything it can be

    It's a minute walk at most, not really a bug and also not a vital area as there's only a few quests to be done there.

    1. Story Quests (Several)
    2. Archer/Bard Class Quests
    3. Conjurer Class Quests
    4. Miscellaneous Quests
    5. Whatever else I missed, because the previous four were off the top of my head

    That seems like quite a bit more than a few to me.

    Why is it people respond to these things only to try to downplay them when it's obviously a problem? Whether it's high-priority or not, it exists. I'm putting it out there, whether it gets paid attention to or not is up to the devs, not you. Unless you have something constructive to add to people's reports, don't post.
