I see another player on my way back to this one.<\/p>\n<p>Heading back and forth from this quest I find a pair of Pants free for the taking and grab them. I see another new player, this time a light elf.<\/p>\n<p>Back at the original cave that same new player is still wacking away at the same mobs.\u00a0 Either they are really dumb or someone is botting early.<\/p>\n<p>In town I see a tagged person hanging out, someone in devotion. This quest is pissing me off with all it&#8217;s back and forth running already. I see a high level player run past as I head back to town for the millionth time. Kekropus tells me to go to the Hills of Gold, which I&#8217;ve already been to like 20 times to get some claws. Ugh.
