my barbarian tog <circle 34, highest weapon LE at 164> and my dwarf cleric <circle 46, highest weapon MB at 154> received the IDENTICAL kill-boss task from Anthelorm in haven, to kill the unyn on aesry named Araele.

I completed the task with both characters <not at the same time, but one after the other, the barb killed it first, then my cleric went into the caves and fought.

However, when it was time for payout:

my cleric got this:

>ask ant about task
Anthelorm says, "Thank you very much, Kadoshgonif. I have a few things here for you, thank you so much for your help."
Anthelorm hands you 1512 Lirums.

my barb got this:

>ask ant about task
Anthelorm says, "Thank you very much, Barzella. I have a few things here for you, thank you so much for your help."
Anthelorm hands you 958 Lirums.

why such a big discrepancy? It was the exact same critter that I had to kill for both tasks?

Whats the Charisma difference between the two characters?

mundus vult decipi, ergo decipiatur

Discrepancy aside, is it really with it for 1.5 gold even?

>Personally Id lean towards the treasure/equipment side, that would make a much flavorful system then "Kill X for Y coin."

Agreed.

>It has already been stated that tasks will eventually lead to gaining items along with or rather then coins.

It has been suggested that this may happen. If it was promised please direct me to the post.

yeah, well, my barb really has no use for magical items, or even fluff as rewards. she'd rather make the cash.

Maybe your barb should just go hunt. I don't see the point in another moneymaking system like trading with no variety or excitement.
