I got a call in the Queue asking for some help in finding a treasure from the new treasure maps, I dont mind these calls now and then and most of them are fun to see the players get lots of stuff. This call was a bit different however. There were only two people. Most the time I see parties of ten or more. They asked me to help find the treasure spot I said "Sure no problem, what is your mining skill?" He replied "30" I said ok your search radius is three tiles. His friend had shown up a few minutes later saying that he found the spot. I asked him if he heard a mining sound when he tried to dig for it. His reply "I dont have a soundcard" No problem I tell him ill listen for it. I ask them what thier detect hidden and lockpicking skills are at they reply that they dont have any. I began to get a sinking feeling at this point, "ok what monster did you get this off of?" As I was asking this his friend had pulled the chest out of the ground and a Lich Lord, two Dread Spiders and a Ogre Lord showed up. Two seconds later both are dead and one of the ghosts replies "We pulled it off of someone that was killed at the bank."
