Crashing when talking to an NPC

About an hour ago, I made a new character in factions, then when I talked to the guy to let me into Shing Jea Monastary, I suddenly crashed...

After that I've restarted the game several times, did a -repair and a -image, nothing helped.

Before it happened the first time, I did some ABing, and the 2 faction NPCs didn't crash me. So I tried that again, but apparently talking to them now also crashes me.

Does anyone perhaps have any idea on how to fix this?

I had the Samething happen to me in factions. Every time i Would Talk to one of the priest to get their blessing the game would crash. I went to guildwars home page and reinstalled to its current location. I havent had a problem since. Hope this works for you.

this is most likely due to a corrupt .dat file. go to the guild wars website, and download a new client, and re-install. this should fix any issues you have.
