Awesome job! Thank you!!!

I agree. Good post. The back and forth about 'would you like some cake' and so on was funny

Response by DaHobbit: Thank you. I was actually cracking myself up while writing that!

hahahahaha I was getting ready to kill her and drag her corpse bad to AC!

Then I thought of my 'granny', may she rest in peace, always asking anyone if they'd like "a cuppa tea and biscuits! Or maybe a meat pie?" with her Scottish brogue accent, and by the time the NPC was finished, she was, in my mind, talking like her.

Hobbs brought back a bit of RL nostalgia with that. Loved it in the end!

Response by DaHobbit: Thank you. I'm glad you liked it. I was making it up as I went, and really had no idea how to finish the quest. I didn't want to do another "kill 50 monsters" etc. But the dialogue just fell into place as I was writing. I am a bit happy with it.

I have never gained even close to all the levels i have gained with all of the other updates combined as i have in this update

I must have gained 40 levels and at my level that's saying A LOT

Great job hobbs

Ardesias city is great and a HUGE +1 for Hobbs Mine

I really appreciated combing thru every bookcase and piece of furniture in both Ardesia city and Hobbs mine

I must have found over 50 items not including all of the items that i found in all of the chests

GREAT WORK HOBBS

HUGE +1,000,000

A bit happy isn't enough IMHO ... it was a stroke of genius! It should be a flat out a chest buster!

I'm looking forward to LK testing the mine but I fear I have a little more, , mining ahead of me, 100 Mithril Ingots yielded 2 hammers. Good thing I had a few partial sets of tools made, not going to give them away now ... took about 40 bars I think for last 2 of 5 picks, well at least until I can get into the mine and see what's what. Haven't even though about the helmets yet.

I never knew MadMikael to be so greedy! With the price the miners are being paid they should buy their own gear!

Ace, double M. Totally agree!

Love the update so far. Yeah, I'm several hundred levels away from seeing the start or end of some of these things, but it has been fun so far.

Regarding the actual mine quest, when npc Mikael tells me to check with his assistant at the mine I can't see any npc with a question mark in or around Hobbs' mine. Is there a level requirement, or am I missing something obvious? I haven't finished the main storyline quest yet (levels) if that matters. I hear it's a walk in the park after that!

Well, first off, I do know many npcs involve you having to talk to them multiple times.
Make sure you do this - but if you have the quest in your book, you should be ok.

About the assistant:

Spoiler: Show

I don't know if there is a level requirement - but I think it's 150 if there is one.
He's found inside the mine, just walk around inside - there are two npcs in there, so if you only see one, you didn't walk in the right spot.

Thank you very much! Well, not as much for the npc conversation after getting the report!
