I took a little trip from the sewers along the edge of the lake upto the Midway Observatory.
All posed a descent challenge, admitably, it could be tougher as the Bandit Leaders seem to have been removed.
For the overall threat of being swarmed by a horde of claws and teeth is met with little reward it seems.
And peculiar enough, the most northern chest in the Goverment District Sewers seems to only spawn gold and scrolls, i have yet to see a witch-wererat, perhaps there's another reason for it..but it seems a bit obscure to me.
Upon leaving the stench of the sewers, we made our way up along the lake. After duking it out with several Greater Wolfwere's, i felt i had accomplished more oocly than icly.
Its sad to see that the most common monsters pose such a threat followed by a minor reward.
