What is your suggestion?: Moving the Wise Old Man to a more visible location. Maybe near Mac?

 

Is this in OSRS?: N/A

 

Has this suggestion been accepted already?: Not that I could find.

 

How would this benefit Alora?:  I see new players ask on a daily basis where they can buy skillcapes when using the TP. Hopefully, this would alleviate that issue.

Support. This would only take a few seconds as well to relocate the NPC, so it's not like this suggestion would take that long to adjust.

[Another Cow]

Not to offend any new players, but no matter what, new players will ask where the NPC is. It's easier to ask people who know that to go searching yourself, can't blame them for being efficient. 

 

Doesn't seem super necessary to me.

I agree with @Another Cow, I don't think this is really necessary since the players could just ask where it is. No support sorry.

Provided Omicron has the time to move him (and wants to). I don't see any problem with it.

He could potentially make it so it sells capes and not hoods as the icon cause it easily confuses new players.

 

This said, there's absolutely no need for this. I don't mind either way. It could be a small QoL update for beginners.

I agree with this, however, I believe this particular NPC to be particularly hard to locate due to its isolated location at the tip of edgeville (a location easily overlooked in that time before an inquiry is made). Therefore, this particular NPC is more often results in newbie inquiries. What about the new player who just gets unlucky and is ignored?

Considering the wise old man isn't normally the person who gives capes on OSRS, players will always ask where to go. I agree with both Cow and Salter, its not needed at all but the hoods -> capes would be the helpful visual assistance to people seeking it.

Going to have to say no support, the more we move things into edgeville the more the rest of the map becomes obsolete.

I can understand that struggle of not knowing where something is, and Another Cow brings up a good point.

Although I’m not very supportive in terms of really getting the NPC moved it isn’t a big job or difficult by any means so I will see if Omicron will move him closer.

[Iron maxx]

Just as people said above. If it's like a 10 second thing for Omicron, im fine with it. Otherwise not necesary for now. 

No support i'd say.

[Steezii]

I do have to agree with @Another Cow , new players will always ask where a certain NPC is, no matter if he's right infront of their noses or not, and especially with the Wise Old Man since he isnt one of the NPCS that often sell capes unlike "Bob"

On the other hand, if Omicron has a few seconds to spare to move him a couple of blocks, and doesnt mind doing this, i don't really see a reason why i would vote for No Support.

Don't really find a need to move the  NPC.
