    Unable to communicate with NPC's while on mount (suggestion / possible bug)

    I do not know if this is intended, or a known issue. Either way it seems a little strange that I have to get off my mount to turn in / accept a quest. Also not being able to shop, or do anything NPC related.

    If this is working as intended, I really believe this should be addressed, and changed.

    Currently it seems intended but it would be nice if you could interact with NPCs while on your mount, but I believe the interacting with npcs is the same as interacting with objects in the world for quests etc so it wont be a quick change.

    It is intended.

    I agree that being able to interact with NPC's and shops whilst mounted would be a change for the better. Also when going to engage a mob whilst mounted, initiating attack with your character should make an auto dismount and engage.

    This was a good choice. I have no desire to force my way thru a herd of riding beasts to get to a vendor. Same for talking to NPCs when there is a crowd. I am glad they did it this way. I am a bit wary of what will happen to the dynamics of the game when everyone has mounts. We will see how it goes.

    I'm a 100% with CrisGer. If they allow NPC talking on mounts you will have floods of mounts on NPCs and some (few maybe but still) will stay on top of them to not allowing playerz to interact with it. Its okay first but if it proliferate it will plague gameplay and community. They did well to not allow it, in a year... maybe. I j

    While this behavior is intended, it is contradictory that mobs are able to interact with you while mounted. IE, you can be attacked, but you cannot converse.
