    Default Proposed xp change

    In quests where you are required to kill an enemy you cannot acquire the "Insidious Cunning" bonus, even if you kill only the bare minimum. An example quest = Durk's. Even if you only kill the 2 brothers (both required) you only get the 7% bonus. I propose that the bonus be for killing the bare minimum rather than absolute 0.

    Wouldn't the problem with that idea be that they'd need to manually code that in to every quest to figure out the bare minimum? Instead of how it is now with the highest bonus being 0 killed?

    I mean it makes sense and I'd support it, if it were easy to implement...but if it took the devs more than 30 seconds to do, it seems like a waste of time...given how many other real, genuine issues exist within the game.

    That's all. Great idea if it's simple and fast...if not. Eh.

    I think all that s needed is enter a "2" instead of a "0", but yes someone would have to go through all the quest and do that.

    And that's exactly my point. Do you really want somebody going through and doing that for *every* quest instead of working on something else?

    That's all I was trying to say.

    Personally I think the benefits of not killing anything are usually so high already that they should completely eliminate that bonus. I would guess the spirit of this bonus was for the stealthy party of rogues and rangers sneaking past everything to get the objectives done. The reality is that this bonus is usually obtained from zerging a quest you know extremely well, or in laughable quests where there is nothing to kill anyway (baudry pt2). Neither of which need an extra bonus IMO.
