What's the point of those useless vendor NPCs?
Vendors in MMOs are nearly always useless unless you just have nothing. I don’t understand it really, but it makes it so you have to work for things that are actually good. Also find it weird theres like 10 vendors in Lions Arch that sell like 1-2 food items and that’s it, like everyone is a chef.
I think Lion’s Arch should be a little box with 1 waypoint and one POI that has one crafting station that you can craft anything at a NPC that serves as a bank, a trading post, a skill trainer, and a merchant that sells every item in the game. I hate having a city that actually looks nice and populated!
It doesn’t have to be super condensed but some of the ways they designed cities are a bit inconvenient. Banks and trading posts are never nearby except in the case of Rata Sum, but then crafting stations are a good 15 seconds away(which is a long time when there is nothing interesting to do between point A and B ). The vendors in LA all have the same gold coins over their head so to me those look like vendors that should sell me gathering tools, its just a bit frustrating when the first 10 I check have nothing of value for anyone that isn’t a cook.
Some of it just feels more like a subscription MMO trying to waste my time when they don’t have to do that with their business model.

Mister, I would easily pay again the full price of the game just to get this, so that between Lion’s Arch visits, I can actually have a while to enjoy the game, instead of the neverending back-and-forth trips between the crafting stations, vendors, banks, and Black Lion merchants.
While I think, unintentionally, you just single-handedly won the entire suggestions forum.

Oh wait, they want you to buy Black Lion traders that last 5 minutes. Duh…
Don’t forget the single-use Bank Access Express for a mere 35 gems.

Maybe they want us to use their portable bank items but I don’t think this has the point. You never want to keep your harvesting tools occupying your bank, not to mention they are, ridiculously, not even account bound and you can’t share between characters. I have already paid 6 extra monthly subscription fee for only those bank/bag slots although I have only played for a month. I am very disappointed at how they make failed decision like this. Besides, in real world, you don’t have tons of useless vendors selling things NO ONE wants to buy.
Don’t call the white gear vendors useless.
Those pieces of white gear have a skin which can be used for mogging.

Well, at least we don’t need 2 identical armorsmiths in the same hub selling 2 sets of identical armors each. And we don’t need them everywhere. What we need everywhere are those selling what we need to replenish constantly.
