What do you do? Get over that feeling. It's over, dude [img]tongue.gif[/img] the monsters will just keep respawning so don't feel like you haven't killed them all or anything.

I know, it's a shitty quest really. Unrewarding. Still, it's only meant to be a 'filler' - and you get quite a bit of experience from all those vampiric wolves, spiders, and jellies in there.

it was a bit dull wasn't it?

having said that i ended up playing it in a window with the sound off and 'auto-pause when enemy sighted' is making me very lazy

good quest for a barbarian & thief combo i reckon (hack-hack-hack-pilfer-hack . . . . )

there is a second part of the quest that Ulcaster can do for you, if you find highlight the text for spoilers the broken armor from the Firewine bridge, and IIRC the ring of folly (if not the ring then another cursed item) he'll make an enchanted sword for you {/end spoiler}

highlight the text for spoilers IIRC it is the broken armor from the Firewine bridge and the idol from the archaeological excavation, you need to get the sword from the Ghost of Ulcaster.

InsaneBane's poiler is correct, but it's my educated opinion (my, aren't I the pompous one) that this "quest" would be much better if all knowledge of it dropped off the face of the earth. Really. It should never even have existed, and therefore, to my mind, it doesn't. It's pointless, adds nothing to the game, is utterly nonsensical and doesn't do anyone a damn bit of good, so I for one would be much happier if people would stop mentioning it to show off how much they know about the game.

Note that this isn't a rant directed at Morgeurat and InsaneBane, [img]smile.gif[/img] it's just that this stupid little "Easter Egg" really gets on my nerves.

That quest and it's completion award, is the WORST FRIGGING QUEST EVER! AAAAAAAAAAAAAARGH! Stop telling people about it and just bury the knowledge that nobody needs to know.
