More than a black pearl for killing a hundred enemies in the strong hold.

Like maybe get an adventure shard for that too like you do with defending the strong hold. And maybe more than 6 basically useless seals for doing demonic closings there as well? It would help to upgrade things in the Guild-make it just a tad easier.

    I'd much rather get something worthwhile for the mimic than a black pearl. They're barely a blip in the gem category and not worth it as RP.
    I'm not looking for forgiveness, and I'm way past asking permission. Earth just lost her best defender, so we're here to fight. And if you want to stand in our way, we'll fight you too.

    Some of those Missions should update and give change at Rare or Uncommon Voucher's either of a fixed type, or a Pack that offers a random chance of various types... ...at the very least they could do this! You'd think it really be minimal time investment.

    A few of these updated could be fast, easy to do, & would represent a quick wins!

    Movel the Slothful, isn't the only quest gives a fixed green voucher, most supplies, or gems; rather than a choice, or a random voucher.
    ╘ I'd accept either which ever is faster & easier for them! There are several of the boss quests that do!




    Note: The quest that gives a Black Pearl, Stronghold Keeping the Peace is the one the OP @jana#2651 is talking about. That should also be updated to offer a Random Enchantment, possibly even of one of far higher quality from 4 higher quality ones; with only a chance at Black Pearl.

    The same could be true for a few other Stronghold Missions, given an slight, or meaning update too!

    Maybe sometime in 2040 they will start fixing what's wrong with the Stronghold.
    Apparently pointing-out the bleeding obvious is a 'personal attack'.

    Most of these could be updated with minimal effort if they only had a Quick-Wins Team!

    Its a recurrin topic, so no effort, as stated many times, until it gets any priority.
    Would add that, a story line (stewart NPC) ends with hints to underdark, so time wise there could be some addition, like we got with dragons.

    Stronghold was added in mod 7 and then mod 8 was the now removed Underdark campaign. My assumption was that was the intent behind mentioning the Underdark in the Stronghold story quests, to foreshadow mod 8.

    They've stated in relatively recent livestreams that Strongholds are not a priority and not planned for any work for the foreseeable future. That's why I was harping on so much about the Halaster statue getting fixed as it's own separate job, because I knew they weren't going to fix anything under the umbrella of overall Stronghold work. What you see is all we have at the moment and nothing is going to change until they make some kind of announcement about a Stronghold upgrade/development generally where we could hope that things which need fixing would be included within the project. But they're not going to go and start doing little fixes or changes here and there. They don't care about Strongholds right now and aren't going to work on them.

    Yes, that will be a long wait because they have done something on Stronghold not too long ago ... new Dragonflight. It will take a long while for them to circle back to Stronghold.

    You are prolly correct, yet with current changes to ingame lore, ther is litlle conection even between "old" and "new" underdark.
    What could be done here, would be a simple quest inside SH, like assisting Blaspheme caravan passin trough or finding another drow agent lost on its way.
    Now (after dwarven king line) u get Drizzt asking u to fight Demogorgon which is actually a Baphoment line.

    Greywind-the black pearls when you have 99 or more which is easy to do after some dungeons actually do give you pretty good rp- they are usually more than the 9900 it gives you in points on its own. But one pearl, your right, isnt worth the sand it took to make it.

    I've got over 11m RP on Greywind. All the gems I get lately feed the mimic.
