Couple quest suggestions

Clown quest, you can not add players to it once accepted. Also, the rewards for the quest seem to be pretty low. For it's level range, I've found it's one of the quests I have to expend quite a bit more resources on comparitively to other quests it's range, and I have evasion, which actually makes it hurt a lot less.

The troll quest. I did it last night with a fairly good party. Me(fighter/rogue in fullplate), two other warriors, a wizard, and another fighter rogue, and then a cleric. All of us were levels 6-7. We got SPANKED almost immediately. We came out of it, after expending healing, having lost a good 500-1000 gold each, and only two people having escaped a death (I think). We were far from under prepared in potions or buffs or even tactics. We did manage to complete the quest through a ton of grit and blood, after everyone having lost a bit of everything. Now, I can understand if the end reward is supposed to be the loot but....

I didn't see anything I wouldn't have gotten from one of the 'easier' quests like urdlen, gnolls or the Hoar temple, all of which are far easier, less time consuming, and less resource intensive. I may have just had bad luck on the quest, but I have't talked to anyone yet who thinks the quest is actually worth the time to do, because of the risk vs reward ratio of the quest.

Yes, Trolls are hard, of course. But we managed to do it with 1 real fighter, 2 druids, 1 ranger, cleric and rogue or two. It's about tactics that you can figure out.

As the ranger on that run Paha mentioned, I second that when we did it, it was pretty perfectly challenging, without being impossible. There was one point when I thought we'd die for sure, with our fighter getting down to near-death several times, but in the end, we pulled through. We did have a bit of help from spider webs, but other than that, I think the fact that we were careful, lay proper tactics down, and cooperated was what got us through unharmed.

So yeah, it's definately hard, but not impossible - Just the way a quest involving slaying a tribe of trolls should be.

I don't know, I did quite a bit of testing and for a short quest trolls seemed about right to me. The drops are very considerable due to the high CR of the creatures, and the boss even has a 40% chance of dropping a unique item that is probably better than any other boss loot out there. The chests are generally all pretty good too, but of course you need a rogue.

I'll be adding the adding dialogue to clown quest. Greater reward will be considered.

I think the trolls quest is just about right, you guys just had a really hard go at it.

Trolls is pretty okay from my perspective. It can sometimes go bad if those certain creatures cast a certain spell on you. But those certain creatures are'nt hard to kill quickly.

Naga Trolls is pretty okay from my perspective. It can sometimes go bad if those certain creatures cast a certain spell on you. But those certain creatures are'nt hard to kill quickly.
Spoiler spoiler. :)

I agree, those *spoiler* that Naga spoke of are what make it so hard. We did have a bad go at it but, I wasn't sure if the loot we got was just bad luck or how it is normally, cause...it felt kinda skimpy for how hard it was to me. So probabally just bad luck all around.
