How two characters work with NPCs?

[samticore]

So, I get you can talk to visiting merchants like Redd and Flick,. etc... but what about Gulliver? Does it just depend on the first person of the day to speak to him? I never remember about my 2nd character, who I created to make a very specific house for my town, when he visits.

Same q about Pascal. Can multiple chars find him in a day?

Redd, Flick, CJ, Pascal, and Other Merchants at Plaza can be talked to be all players. As for Gulliver, Gullivarr, Wisp. I'm not sure. They do seem to be on a first serve basis to me.

You can interact with Gulliver/arr and Wisp with all the characters but it must be single player.

All your characters can interact with NPC... So for Redd and Pascal, you can buy and dive for scallops with each of your characters. You can also commission and sell to Flick and C.J. I know this because I get both my characters to dive for scallops to talk to Pascal.

Gulliver and his alter ego and Wisp are a first-come-first-served basis. So if character A has done the task for Gulliver/Wisp, you can’t “get” the item anymore with character B, C, or D.

EDIT: May need to try again with Gull and see...

Gulliver and Wisp aren't first come first serve. You just have to play as the other characters in single player and not in Co op

Really? Because when I tried to talk to Gull with my secondary character that I booted up afterwards, he was already wide awake and walking around the town. I also couldn’t get him to have me do the tasks for him.

Yes, you can interact with them with all your characters and get something in exchange. I spoke to Gulliver yesterday with my main then logged in with character B and completed his quest again, both my characters received a gift from him today. Gulliver will be in the same spot for every character you have, so you shouldn't have a problem finding him.

Were you doing play with another resident. That doesn't work. Your second character needs to be in the game by themselves.

Thanks everyone for responding! !!!

I played as my second character after going through the Gulliver treasure hunt with my first and was able to do the ‘communicator quest’ as normal, so can confirm.

I'm not sure about the pirate alt, but for the original Gulliver you can be in multiplayer mode -- I've done it multiple times, unless they changed it in the latest patch. However, you might just have to do them one at a time (e.g. one character has to finish before another can get the quest).
