If go back and talk to the mayor of Umar Hills you'll get a really good suit of studded leather (forget the exact stats, but it's NICE, esp. for a ranger) and if you are a ranger he will offer the deceased ranger's cabin.

i know about that but i mean do you get anything from the quests that you do from it?

your post is hanging in a doubtful question. what do you want to know? did you enter the temple or you just killed the stalkers? there's a lot to loot inside the ruins and be ready to face a big lizard in there.

I seriously hope the people you killed were not those involved in the first Ranger stronghold quest. ;) It will not have adverse consequences, but it is not the most beneficial route to take.

Rangers

Start either the Valygar quest, or the Umar witch quest and then head to the Umar Hills. Complete the Shade Lord quest and you'll get control of the cabin in the area. You can get kicked out of your stronghold, if you buy the kids beer or swords! If you ever miss doing one of the quests, your cabin will be boarded up...
Quest 1: When returning to the Umar Hills, a dryad approaches you and asks you to help her with a little problem - some men are causing hell in the woods around the Temple Ruins. Head over there. Talk to the noble (he is in the south, along the bottom) and tell him that you'll help him find the Mithril. Return to the Shade Lord Dungeon and search Mazzy's cell to find the other half of the note. Return to the outer world and head to the bottom right corner. Search the rock there to find the Mithril. Bring it to noble, return to your cabin and talk to the Dryad to finish the quest.

Quest 2: A few days later you are asked to help with an orc problem. You have three days to comply. Return to the Umar Hills and talk to the mayor. Head to the cave where the Mimic's Blood was found and kill the orcs and other things that are standing outside it. Then talk to Madulf and the kid inside. Minister Lloyd will reward you.

Quest 3: Five days later you'll be asked to return to the Umar Hills. Return there and talk to Minister Lloyd. You'll be asked to kill the 'Umar' Witch. Head to the Shade Dungeon and kill the Glabrezu (near Mazzy's cell). The Umar Witch waits for you at the crystal where you got your first Sun Gem. Kill her and talk to the Dryad outside of the dungeon to get your reward.

<font color="gold">I like the Ranger Stronghold, though the rewards isn't so good. There's plenty of XP, though. [img]smile.gif[/img] </font>

Cerebus is good for early-level rangers, IMO.

I think he means that you don't get anymore ranger stronghold quests, you will still be able to access the ranger cabin.
