Removal of Anvil Outlaw Refuge Bank service without mention in patch notes?

Heya,

Since the release of Dark Brotherhood we could enjoy Guild Bank services in the Anvil Outlaw Refuge. This was a great addition, I thought, to the area since it was unique and made sense in the grand scheme of things with the amassing bounties of that area. It made sense for it to be there since Anvil is full of outlaws and the local government is corrupt. Even the banker in the Refuge says that the locals have said they won't make trouble for her.

But unfortunately I visited today and I found that the guild bank services were removed, presumably with the Dragonbones DLC? Is that a bug? Or was it a bug that the guild bank services were available in the Outlaw Refuge there? In any case there is no mention of it anywhere in the Patch notes afaik.

Anyone else noticed it? Do you want it back? Do you think it was meant to be there and then removed? Or do you think it wasn't meant to be there and they finally removed it? ZOS people can we have it back? It was a nice addition.

    Syalleth is still there on NA-PC, right center of the map.

    If a guild hadn't claimed that trader yet after the new trader week started, there would be nothing to search. So you might have visited before the current guild on it took it.

    Guild Bank, not guild store. You could use the npc to store items in the guild bank and withdraw. Can't remember now if the guild trader was accessible from her but i think it was

    it was - I used her a LOT to list AND shop. i'm guessing it wasn't intended and they "fixed" it. sucks, but at least the regular bank is right outside the refuge :/

    Yeah but if you have a bounty that was the place to be. Listing and buying till it went down. Made perfect sense in an outlaw city

    I'm guessing the excuse is 'it was bugged' or 'an oversight' because moneylenders were not meant to have full services. But yeah they could at least have stated so. Just another ninja nerf they hope people wouldn't notice.

    It was the only anomaly where you had full banking services in a Refuge. I am sure that it was not intended, but I am surprised it took this long to change.

    However, it was nice to have the place where we did have full banking services. I would like it back please.
    Enjoy the game, life is what you really want to be worried about.

    Was it possible you could access it when regular NPCs wouldn’t? Then that’s a bug fix.

    oh, I won't argue with that, like I said, I used her for those purposes all the time myself, and like you - have discovered it on my semi regular trip back to gold coast recently. I wish they haven't changed it, but I get why they did.

    By the way for people saying it was the convenient place to do your trading while having a bounty, there are no guards in Coldharbour. You can walk around the city with as much bounty as you want. And yes this includes the bank.

    You do have a point yes. I did however fancy Anvil more than a plane of misery xD

    Since it was the place for our guild store, I'd like to have it back, yes. I was disappointed when I realized this change. Instead of 'nerfing' again, ZOS should 'buff' all these bankers (incl. our assistants) to be able to offer GS and GB services. Like Nuzhimeh should repair etc.

    Open more thief troves - there are plenty of edicts to be found to get rid of the heat and eventually even the total bounty.

    The same goes for the bankers in the Imperial City base camps (but not in overland Cyrodiil, though).

    Good luck queuing for Cyro if you just want to bank. For those cases Coldharbour is best but the point is was this a "bug fix" or is it a bug itself? It was in the game since DarkBrotherhood release

    I was pretty frustrated when I waited through loading screens to get there and the function was removed, but if it just means cold harbor instead, that will work. Thanks for the tip!

    I legit didn't even realize there was a Moneylender NPC in Anvil's Outlaw Refuge, let alone one with normal Banker functionality. Shame that I'll never be able to utilize it now.

    While I'm all for uniformity, I still think that the Moneylenders should at least offer you Guild Bank services as well as the Crown purchased Banker.

    Wait, what?! This was a bug? Here I am thinking Zos is on the right track with QoL improvements like this, and it was a mistake? Wow. So glad I didn't buy DB now as I was about to simply because I do (did) all my banking in that refuge because of that access.

    Oh well, thanks for saving me some crowns Zos.

    AD is doing diplomacy to fix this because all the killings in reapers march.
    Dumers has also had had serious issues with murder rate in Vivec city and are supportive.
    Plan is to use fighter guild as guards.

    I'm inclined to say the functionality was a bug just cause it was the only one, but everyone LOVED it so it really doesn't make a lick to sense to remove it.
