My ninja and thief did the boars quest and when i gave the ring to the ninja to turn in i got my 1000 exp and then my thief. when i went back to the ninja he gave an extra 1000 exp for doing it. i have the patch and still hating it :( seems in town you get booted more often. Just a little hint to get more exp.

I know what you mean, this happened to me but i dont like it because it takes an hour and a half for him to shut up to start out with. This trick works with all quests might i add.
