The problems of this quest are multiple, not sure how this made through even basic playtesting.
My suggestions to improve this quest:
Thanks for reading.
- The amount of brigand parties you got to hunt down quickly spirals out of control, starting at 2 then 4 then 7 and so on. It's literally impossible to find that many bandit parties on the map, especially in highly patrolled areas.
- When you chasing brigands for the quest, they happily waltz away out of quest range and are no longer eligible to fulfill the quest. Happens all the time.
My suggestions to improve this quest:
- Instead of having player chase gazillion small bandit parties, spawn a quest stack army of brigands not far from he questgiver, and scale its size to player's army.
- Can mix the brigand army up with all types of brigands to make the fight cooler - e.g. heavy frontline with sea raiders, looters with rocks ofc, ranged covered by forest bandits, alsosome mountain bandits etc.
