    Interacting with All Saints' Wake NPCs while mounted

    Did anyone happen to notice you could speak to the Adventurer NPCs while mounted? When mounted in general too, not just on the ahriman. Thought it was a neat little feature considering that you're usually stuck having to dismount first then remount after. Can't say I recall if it was something they added in ShB or if it was a thing back during that one Hatching-tide event with the egg mount though. Be nice if they made more NPCs work like that.

    The reason it doesn't normally work like that is probably because otherwise you'd have important NPCs crowded by people on their giant mounts.

    How about: Any player within a certain distance of an interaction point disappears until they move away. You could also select to have your character and minions disappear so you don't click them accidentally when trying to talk to an NPC.

    Well that's easily solved with target filtering. The default filter works fine and you click through player characters and right to NPCs or objects. Just hold x! (default keyboard keybind).

    That being said, it's hella rude to speak to someone while mounted.

    Oh, is that what target filtering does? I don't recall ever seeing an explanation of it.

    Yes! It allows you to set what you'd like to be targetable. It's a very useful feature and the default setting works wonders.
