The two quests - lighting the beacons and finding Reek's stash, at level 6 and 5 respectively, are arguably the toughest two quests on the server, pound for pound. The character is required to run through the madness of the Mongrelwoods at low level, oh, and for Reeks one, they might have to scour every single corner to get the beverage MacGuffin.
Now I am all up for a challenge, I relish my 3 character death average on these two quests. Mongrelwoods are supposed to be terrifying. I get it. But, neither of them have any reward beyond xp. And the xp is solid, but certainly not exceptional.
If you compare them to most level 5-6 quests, which can be won by rolling your face over the keyboard, a little more xp or something might be nice!
