I have completed part 2 "Sea Ghost" and is available in the Foundry. NW-DHKJD78SM.

I had to create the ship's interior from scratch, so it took longer then expected.

If you haven't played part 1 "The Haunted House", I would recommend it. NW-DB9Q7NCWR.

I hope you enjoy and leave feedback.

Thanks

    There are lamps or something on the Sea Ghost aboveboard, but they do not cast any light. I know it's supposed to be fogged in at night, but with only a couple enemies aboveboard applying some light to these would make it easier to make your way around the aboveboard area. It was dark enough I got confused and turned around between the two ends of the ship.

    If you approach the rowboat instead of talking to Will first, you can fall into the water in between the boat and the ground. I did this and wasn't able to get out of that spot.

    For whatever reason, I didn't get any loot from the quest chest (solo level 44 TR), the only out of the ordinary thing I did was switch companions mid quest (wizard to cleric).

    You did make it feel appropriately cramped in the ship. Overall I didn't like it as much as the first, I think because it's more hack/slash than the first one. I know it's a recreation of an original module though. Swapping out non-interactable versions of things when you tick them off the things you have to take care of aboard ship would help the player know what was done and tell them they needed to go elsewhere to find the rest.

    First off, thanks for taking the time to give this feedback.

    Let me see what I can do about lights on the top deck. I can't do too much, since the whole thing is in a cave room.

    Stuck on rowboat. i had this happen to me while testing it. I thought I fixed it. Let me check.

    I am not sure about the loot. Could be a Crytic bug that I am not aware of.

    Let me see what I can do about the pathing of events.

    Thank you again for the feedback

    I'll go through both, though i've never played much DnD as such.
    I like turtles.

    I just ran into this bug with a second quest, not getting any loot. In that quest I did the same thing, swapping the companions wizard to cleric (and back to wizard in this case).

    Getting no loot is most likely a bug, seemed I got loot for the first 5 foundry quests I went through for the show but rack foundry done afterwards gave zero loot at the end. The only thing I could think of is that its a system to stop exploitation. But that is just my guess, still doesn't stop players from 1 staring you to death because of it.

    Only did two Foundries today, no loot in either. Ran them normally, only atypical thing was switching out companions.

    I had to remove a few mobs. They were getting aggro'ed through a wall.

    A few more tweaks based on feedback.

    Thanks
