Gather 3 sacks of grain???

[Shag]

So I just tried this mission, I did every room and went through every hall...
There were only 2 sacks?
Is this a known bug?

You have to loot the items in between the halls too.

Man I thought I got everything...must have missed something, just unlucky I guess...its okay I didn't loose anyone, and got quite a bit of loot.

I just had this happen to me and this is what I think caused it. I had my inventory full, so when I saw a crate in a large room, I decided to camp first (so I'd clear the wood from my inventory) and then open the crate. But when I woke up from camping, the crate had been smashed and there was no way to open it (I was also ambushed during camping, don't know if it had any effect). I ran the rest of the dungeon, but found no more crates. Had to quit the quest.

I did this as well, completed all the rooms and only had two, then had to backtrack the corridors i hadn;t done to find the last one.

Huh, glad I never tried that quest.

The ones that have you collect things basically cause you to lose three inventory spaces' worth of loot, which is unacceptable.

It's kind of annoying... but if the loot reward is like 9k gold I don't see how it's not worth it.

I never noticed the gold amount being any higher than other quests to compensate, but if it is, I'll have to reconsider.

Yeah, I think the only quests that have higher rewards are ones where you fight a boss, otherwise it's just based on level and length.

Sometimes I do choose such a quest though if I don't have other quests of the right length and level, it's the only quest for an area I want to unlock the next boss for, or if the rewards have a trinket I want.

Ah, I see. I'll keep avoiding them when possible.

Yes, I can imagine picking it if the situation warrants it. But it's sad that this particular quest type comes with an extra drawback and no compensation for it.

I don't see why every quest has to be made equal. In any case, one of the potential advantages of the gathering quests (and the "use item on thingy" quests as well), is that all of the relevant curios can be bunched up early on. Sometimes you get lucky and you don't have to risk much to get the reward.

What's almost as bad are the ones you start with 3 inventory items that you can't get rid of them until you find the right curio. I always seem to find the quest objects only when I'm almost done exploring the map, and have to leave the quest with an empty inventory slot or two, having had to throw away some treasure earlier.
