Yes, there is a thread around this topic in general, but...I took a couple of new players through some of the dungeon last night, and one of them asked me about the drops. Something to the effect that they'd be enough to take the fun out of the game. I told her no, and after getting to the door to Skullport, through the sewers, she was already starting to agree. Then we did the kraken society quest, and all her doubts were quelled. Needless to say, it was not pretty. I had done the quest earlier in the day, with a lvl 13 or 14 fighter/wm, so, with three chars between 9 and 12, I figured we could do it pretty easily. Not. However, we did manage to get it done, eventually, and ran to lvl 4, licking our wounds. They had to leave by the time we reached lvl 5's door, but I believe they will probably be back. Undermountain has cast it's spell once again. Just goes to show you, there is more than one way to help a new char, and sometimes, you just have to let 'em get their feet wet...
