Please tone down the NPCs near the Freerunner's Post

SilverBride · July 18

I've done all 3 of these a couple of times so far and never heard an NPC saying that or sniffing.

Lekjih · July 18

"Ah, there you are Vestige"

"Do you know how long I've been looking for you?!"

"Dragons?! In your own homeland?!"

"Comrade, a word"

"The guild has need of you"

"Sniiiiifff"

I turned up my game volume when doing these today to see if I could hear what everyone is talking about. I did hear it in Ebonheart, but it was so soft I barely noticed it. But I didn't hear any sniffing.

I keep my dialogue volume at 50% and have sound coming through speakers connected to my PC. Maybe try turning down the settings for dialogue and see if it helps?

Things like these really make me wish ESO would "borrow" Lord of the Rings Online sound filter which allows you to filter out any sound from the game.

We do have audio settings where we can choose how loud certain sounds are, that we can turn all the way down to zero.

Every time I get anywhere near the Freerunner's Post in Stonefalls and Glenumbra, there's an NPC nearby saying this. It's driving me nuts, specially since I have to hear her say this at least 4 times a day, with that annoyingly loud and wet SNIIIIIIIIF. It's so annoying that I've started muting the game whenever I get near the posts. The khajiit one in Auridon talks just as often, but at least he doesn't sniff loudly at you.

So please, I'm asking you to tone down the frequency with which they talk to you, or at least make them not say that if you're already a werewolf.

For some reason the addon doesn't register these npcs for me

Approche them so that there is a dialog line in chat. Then you can mute them.

Oh, yes; I have wished for this very thing, too! LotRO's entire filter system is really quite nice and I would love to have that level of control for this game as well.

+1
These dialogues are so annoying!
And thanks whoever recommended an addon to mute the NPCs. I'll try that tomorrow.

Unfortunately it doesn't seem to register them at all - in chat or in the addon, no matter how close I am. Must be bugged for me?

Yeah, tried it earlier today, his dialogue doesn't register.

Thanks for the technical explanation. I really hope the devs can use this information to deal with them.

If it doesn't happen on the U51 PTS, I'll definitely be linking this in there so they can see the data.

I managed to do this by logging off in front of him and logging back in. I muted him and yet he still says it every time I go anywhere near him. I'm thinking the mod is struggling with it. I muted the NPC saying 'Fate needs you proxy' successfully, but not these werewolf/vampire NPC's.

I wonder if it is because of the daily quest marker assigned over their heads. I can get them muted for one day, but the next day they are right back to annoying me. If I take the quest, they don't bother me for the rest of that day but then they start up again the next day. I can get them in the addon for one day, but they are right back at it 24 hours later. Whatever the reason, it has caused me to turn off sound when I do the freerunner quests.
