Camp rewards, treasures and most profitable type.

[EnemigoDeLaMafia]

I have noticed that undead camps will usually give me good treasures to sell, like gemstones, golden chalices, etc.

However, looting bandit camps, or goblin camps, I don't seem to remember getting those kinds of items. I might find a right or silverware, but not the higher end stuff.

Is there a correlation between camp type and the rewards? I've noticed bandit camps will usually spawn a trade good, but no good stuff.

As a second question: is there a particular camp type that would be more profitable?

I remember fighting goblins and coming out with a huge tools debt and trash weapons. Even orcs were better in that sense.

It's mostly about the distance to settlements and the overall size of the camp, as far as I know.
Some treasure items can only be looted from certain enemies, but I'm pretty sure I found high priced treasure (gemstones) in goblin camps before.

The difference in weapons on the other hand is undeniable.

Which type of camp the most profiable is, depends a lot on your overall playstyle:
If your playstyle is very strong against undead your expenses for fights against them will shrink compared to fighting, for example, goblins, most likely make the fight against undead more profitable.
If your playstyle is better against goblins, and not as effective against undead, the opposite might occure, or maybe other types of enemies are your companies weakpoint and will cost you more to fight.

The amount and type of treasure a camp can drop is based on the camp type and nothing else (unless on contract).

For example, a bandit hideout, the strongest bandit camp, can drop 1 or 2 from the following list:

• Furs
  
• Cooper Ingots
  
• Cloth Rolls
  
• Salt
  
• Amber Shards
  
• Silverware
  
• Silver Bowl
  
• Signet Ring

This is regardless of how difficult the camp composition is.

By comparison, the undead buried castle can drop 3 or 4 from the following list:

• Silverware
  
• Silver Bowl
  
• Signet Ring
  
• White Pearls
  
• Golden Chalice
  
• Gemstones
  
• Ancient Gold Coins
  
• Ancient Gold Coins
  
• Jeweled Crown
  
• Ornate Tome

(It has Ancient Gold Coins twice, meaning it is twice as likely to drop those each time)

The exception is when clearing camps on contract.

The rewards in those circumstances are scaled up or down relative to how hard the camp is on contract compared to off contract.

For example, a 1 skull contract will reduce the loot of a harder camp, but a 3 skull contract will increase the rewards of an easier camp.

EDIT: I should specify, when I say scaled up or down I specifically mean quantity. The loot table itself doesn't change, just how many items can drop does.

That's great to know. Thanks! I can now plan better thanks to this.
