All the quests seem very well put together.
Running a lvl25 Monk in GMoF (no twists). Running all quests solo w/Andaro in Epic Normal (lvl26) which means it is realativly easy to kill everything and finish quest. Though, when it came to Casko... Andaro died twice and I once. he is a beast being CR30 and his abilities. The damage from the acid combined with his other attacks/stickyness makes him seem like an EH foe compared to an EN foe. of all the monsters thus far, he is the most challenging, But with a well rounded party, he too should fall with relative easy.

Quest is easy to follow and the layout awesome much like all of the Prison City. The two at the start should also become targetable once the recruiter is dead.
The end boss, at 25% health went into a (non-combative) spell stance that left me confused for a bit. He summoned shadow creatures but none came. I stood next to him for a few waiting to see if enemies would come or if I could attack him again...nothing. It wasn't until I decided to venture back to center of room that creature came. This could be confsing to others in melee attack mode. Some sort of sign/noise/attack should draw attention back to center of room so as not to be left wondering if bugged.
All in all, great quest chain thus far.

Casko is a beast. A Very well done encounter.

Nice quest, asymmetric in layout with stairs, corridors, rooms and plenty of secret areas. There's no specific flow to it, which is good and bad. Good because it doesn't lead you through a set amount of encounters 'bad' because I have to learn where to go

Agreed that this was an enjoyable and well-built quest. Definitely my favorite along with the last one, and I dont have any complaints. I think this one is in the best condition to go live at the present time.

One addition.

The Nightcrawler that spawns has really low saves. My alchem handwraps turned him to stone twice, and he was killed by the nightmare guard on my cloak of night, which seems somewhat ironic and not fitting. You might want to fix this aspect.
