Locations of generic NPCs[edit]

Not sure if this has been noted before, but it seems generic NPCs in outposts (at least the ones in Nightfall) spawn randomly, which makes it difficult to document which generic NPCs appear in an outpost. For example, two weeks ago I removed Vabbian Priest from the Tihark Orchard (outpost) article, because there wasn't any Vabbian Priests while I was in that outpost, instead there was a Vabbian Miner. Just a few minutes ago, I went back to the Tihark Orchard outpost and found a Vabbian Priest but the Vabbian Miner was now missing; I then switched to another Tihark Orchard district and the Vabbian Priest was missing again and was replaced with additional Vabbian Child NPCs. I also noticed this occurs with some other Nightfall NPCs as well (Ascension Pilgrim and Dynastic Spirit in the Mouth of Torment; Mad Soul and Tormented Soul). I'm not sure if this also occurs in Prophecies, Factions, and Eye of the North. --Silver Edge 07:36, 30 October 2010 (UTC)

Quotations and Overviews[edit]

There seems to be some inconsistancy between articles in Cantha, particularly in the Echovald and Jade Sea as to which should come first. The guide has it like:

An overview of the location should go here. This might be used to describe the overall style or theme
of the location. There could also be mention of notable landmarks, general creature types, and possibly
some notes on navigation or travel through the area. Avoid using the in-game description here.

{{Quotation|game
| Add any in-game description for this location here.
}}

Although I think it looks marginally better with the quotation above the overview.. File:User Chieftain Alex Chieftain Signature.jpg Chieftain Alex 14:06, 30 January 2012 (UTC)
