Well there are always some clowns who love to block the potion lady in Hotan with Ox all the time, and everyone complains about it, so heres how to get around it and buy your potions instead of giving them the satisfaction of you complaining. (Obviously for the ones who dont know already)

Not difficult to figure out. I found out about the low camera angle the first time I saw an ox-blockade back in DH :)

Ox-blocking doesn't annoy me. SHOPS ON TOP OF THE Farking POT SHOP annoy me.

If there is only 1 ox that blocks the lady, go behind her ©

I knew about this already, but it's great that you took the time to tell people how to get around it.
I actually think this might deserve a sticky, lol. I mean, alot of people don't know about it... And it's useful information.

Next time I see someone blocking a shop with a stall, I'll put on a thief outfit for the first time ever and disconnect them :P

IMO, some of you gotta chill out with the negativity - some of the people didn't know how to do it, and it's great that Sunaj took the time to actually take the pictures, and tell everyone. If you already knew how to do it, great for you, but some of the people here didn't.

Thanks for the advice, Sunaj. :) I've been lucky enough to never have THAT many people blocking the pot man, that I can't somehow manuever around and click on him or her, but if I ever do, I'll be sure to follow this.

These ox-people could also have some of their buddies put up stalls around the potion lady, so even if you zoom it, you couldn't click on her cos you will go into the stalls instead.

Someone please try it. ^^
