Actually, turns out I'll be available on forums, at least, and sporadically IG on agreement.

AFK for a week or more.

If you were on the same quest that I was (Stein Woodsman), then this is probably not a bug, but a feature of a certain - very irritating - disease.

I could have chosen icelandic, but then no-one would have understood!
Including me.

Anyone else notice the norse trend?
Aye kin!

After the tweak, I think this quest is excellent. Still very dangerous for the foolish or unprepared, but also rewarding - and challenging each time I've done it. Very nice, and with lots of detail!

Seconded. While I don't really feel lost with the character notes, neither do I know if I'm doing it right!

It does seem rather random, though. I mean - no exploration XP for a (surface or otherwise) PC entering Sanctuary for the first time, but I get it when I enter the Canal Ward?

Confirm. Same for Mur, Windy Canyon areas, and Traensyr (side gate).

I agree with the OP (to a certain extent) and disagree with Ivory. While the end reward of gold is nice, the (in my experience) total lack of healing, coupled with the vast decrease in availability of healing gear, means that the gold reward will most often be used up to replace supplies that were used during the quest. I have done it a couple of times now, and cannot recall I have recieved any healing equipment from it - or very much usable loot at all, in fact.

As an alternative, a slight increase in the XP reward might be a good idea, considering that the quest can be quite lethal for many characters in the level-range.

I'd like to summarize that I do think that the quest is nice, and balanced overall (it'll probably become less deadly and difficult once players begin to "learn" it), but that the reward really could use a slight upwards adjustment in terms of either XP or loot.

While I'm not hanging out with this crowd (too smelly), I do think they deserve some more love.

I've got a few screenies off Baltaire. Will see if I can get them up.

Really enjoyed hooking up with you in Old Port and seeing the awesome of the Underdark.

We never got to chat. :(

I, too, vote for Illithid
