    Default Getting random monster on purpose?

    Random monster quests from Thrundarr have become much easier than they once were, as you will get a relatively common monster.

    I always found the second quest the hardest: getting past the AF is tedious as hell and the DH are deadly. So wouldn't it be a valid strategy now to "ruin" the second quest on purpose and replace it with a second random monster? Has anyone started doing this?
    You steal a scroll labelled HITME. The orc hits you.

    A big issue is that you miss out on the 12 charge wand of fireballs this way. You have another wand guaranteed eventually from the portal quest, but it's a really useful item to have early. Given that animated forest is a lot easier with the addition of the fungal caves stairs, I don't think giving up the reward for the second quest is a good idea.

    Of course, these days you can both skip the quest and get the reward, but I think the above argument will be valid even once that bug is fixed.
