Companions too close, hinder interaction.

sivistojko
Like I wrote in the title, companions are always way too close so I can't properly click E to loot objects and bodies without actually "talking to Mirri" which is something I don't want.

    Talking to miri should be done by holding the options button over her, just like how you interact with other players.
    Making it use the same button as jump/interact was a recipe for disaster to begin with.

    I haven't really had this problem since the past PC update that adjusted their following distance. Of course I also installed an addon that allows me to remove their interact button as well.

    And you don't think the addon is the only factor here? smh

    I have this problem, especially in Delves. It can disturb to open a door, use an object or pick up whatever (search on a dead body...). For me, it's just one more of those QoL peanuts: it would be nice to have it improved some day, but it goes without too.
    I'm out of my mind, feel free to leave a message... PC/NA

    Their hitbox for interacting is also quite large, they can be standing behind you and still somehow click to chat when trying to interact with something in front of you.

    yeah agree. It goes without too but it would be nice :)

    When you do the quest to get Mirri - Shattered and Scattered - with Bastian on your side, which I did with a new low level character, you run into a real mess to activate the Grapple Points.
    You can hardly activate them because you end up all the time talking to Bastian or Mirri.
    "I still do not understand why I followed the advice of Captain Rana to bring the villagers of Bleakrock into safety. We should have fought for our village and not have backed down, with our tail between our legs. Now my home village is in shambles, the houses burning, the invaders feasting.I swear every day to Shor that after Molag Bal has been defeated, I will hunt down the invaders and restore peace in Bleakrock and drink my mead with my friends at the market place".PC-EU

    When you play in 1st person view there is no problem. At least I never did encounter any problems.
