Right now we cannot adjust the interact range for Strongbox or Essences, while we can do so for less important things like chests. For example, I hate how the bot runs 2 screens away to open a strongbox, but totally ignores the essence that's right next to him. Also maybe there's some kind of priority issue. Breakables have a higher priority to the bot than essences, that makes no sense.
It should be as simple as copy/pasting the same options as we have for chests/shrines/alva/breaches
