Dhedluk - No Loot

[A Former User]

First time I've managed to finish this quest. There were no loot nodes that we could find and the enemies only dropped regular arrows or the odd purple rags every now and again. For how hard this quest is (The battle mages are no joke and the boss crits for over 70 damage sometimes) it would be good to get some reward bump. It gives 250XP and 250 gold per person and that's about the limit to the reward unless the loot nodes didn't spawn for us.

Did you find any of the secret doors?

As an elf with +15 search I found no secret doors the entire run. Possibly really bad luck or the DC needs to be looked at, specially if all the loot is behind them.

@Puffy

Although I agree with loot hidden behind skill checks of some kind (deadly traps, locked doors that can't be bashed, secret doors, etc) this is a very combat oriented quest that would be heavy on the resource drain of anyone who wasn't a party spelled up by a level 10 druid. Even using smart tactics we nearly lost people in one or two rounds to just the boss or just the battle mages. I like the difficulty of the quest, I don't think it should be toned down, I just think there should be at least one obvious loot node at the end that doesn't require a skill check.

Generally, I would think loot chests beyond secret doors should be an added bonus, not the only place it's found?
Probably needs a look - though, many quests are being looked at for loot reasons.
