Title: noble stag problem
Reproduction Rate: 1/?
Blocker? no
Details: died in the wave battle (that mushroom is too much for me at level 121, maybe a mage could do it, but i am not one. don't know if you intended this quest to require a group, as it doesn't seem set up for it.) after i used the ankh, the tablet and jelly were still visible on the altar, but the battle did not restart. upon advice, went back and got another tablet (which makes NO sense despite the explanation, especially as it was still on the altar), went back to the altar with it. first tablet is STILL visible. altar is flashing blue, but cannot place the new tablet to start the battle.

exited to menu for five minutes and restarted, and was able to place the tablet again.

defeated it on the third try (used magic this time). talked to the doe, got sent to the human, picked

Spoiler

"Ever heard of an unusual doe?"
Dyrkalla: Yes. Nearby is a doe that can speak. She is annoying. The doe learned I took a useless pile of gold from an enemy I defeated and tried to make a wager. I declined, but she insisted. You should take the gold instead. Hopefully when I tell her I gave it away, she will stop harassing me.

but he didn't give me anything, gold or xp.

Spoiler

why does a tablet of a conspiracy theory smeared with jelly made from special slime from a precataclysm bunker summon a special stag? is the stag from precataclysm times? why is this slime special? were there always special slimes there or did they mutate over they centuries? how would the doe, or anyone, know about the special properties of this slime? what hermit knew the code to get in and how?

why isn't he upset that i just slaughtered a whole bunch of stags, including the noble one?

i like the bunker scene. i like the notes in the bunker. nothing in the actual quest makes a lick of sense to me.

 

Is this a new quest?

 

@Alley Oop
Did you get any experience for finishing it? I got nothing.

 

Missed that part.

 

Just an update on this, just did this on live in a party of 2, working all the steps together.
At the end, the Dyrkalla gave -me- experience and gold but gave him nothing - but it did the dialogue and the quest is out of his journal (he can't go do it on his own etc.)

I was party leader and initiated conversation first, if that matters.
