    Title: Boundless Forest Rune Bag found on an Archer?
    Reproduction Rate: 1/1
    Blocker?
    Details: While finding and killing "Barbarians" in South Boundless Forest for the Boundless Forest Rune Bag, I never found one on an actual Barbarian, but I did finally find one on a Bandit Archer (named Archer). Not sure if this drop is set to the correct faction? Of note, in the Barbarian area, there are Barbarians and Bandits? And they seem to be allies. Not sure if they are supposed to be there. Or if they are supposed to be Barbarians.
    Steps to Reproduce: Head to this location in South Boundless Forest and kill the Bandits (Archer) and find the rune bag drop.

    I found this in the Barbarian camp the one with the huge wall around it. And i got mine off the bandit archer. And it was in my quest items. Didnt show up as i had it hidden but it was there and turned it in . Did this on Thursday. So it worked then.

    Yeah, I guess I put that item on too many NPCs. It should only be on barbarians in that scene. Good catch! Issue #64614.

    Looks like the actual bug is that there are bandits in a barbarian camp! All the humans in this scene should be barbarians. No bandits allowed!

    Taht'snice and all, but give us more barbarians. Or up the drop rate. Spent way to long and too much running for this to be a daily quest. How much time are you expecting us to spend in the area for this quest? An hour or more is way to long.

    Oh and the respawn rate of the npbs that are there sucks as well. About to throw this quest in the garbage. Probably not goin to do this after the first time, if I can stand doing it even once.

    I found the bag very quickly. I just ran to the barbarian camp and killed a few things in that area, and it dropped very fast.

    I’ve done it 3 times so far. No problem with drop rate.

    Same result on 3 different days?

    Are you going to the barbarian camp?

    I’m heading home now. I bet I find one easily again....

    I just ran right here, killed the first BANDIT I saw and got the bag.

    Obviously the Barbarians should have the bag but........ ;)

    @jiirc, do you have the quest, or did you decide to get a rune bag first?

    I was in the barbarian camp when I was looking for the rune bag.

    Alley, yeah I had the quest when I was looking for the bag.

    I went all around the camp and over the breidge (where the map pins told me I could find bags over there as well) and back into the camp a second time. I still ran around the camp another three or gfour times (mostly looking for stuff to kill) before I got the bag. :(

    So I went back in and got one on the first kill. It happened to be outside the camp (killed that group of three that is on the trial). But I killed them the first time as well. But they didn't drop anything. Killed a half dozen more without a drop (the respawn rate is terrible). Actually I don't think they might not respawn (10 mintues or so later and no sign of the barbarians.)

    Then I went into the camp and killed the couple of barbarians near the entrance (the stone wall with the oil). Nothing there, and the spawn rate sucks big time.

    I probably spent a bunch of time killing the archer, ruffians and what not the first time. Maybe that was why I couldn't get the drop as fast. Maybe their is a drop rate that is different between the barbarians and the brigands there. Hopefully the brigands turn into barbarians when live hits, and the drop rate is good and the respawn rate is quite a bit shorter.

    I can't tell, but it sounds like you're trying to collect multiple rune bags. In other words, trying to have more than one rune bag in your inventory at the same time. Is this correct? If so, it's important to know that the rune bags have a limitation on them, that you can only have one rune bag in your inventory at a time.
