Reporting that Dragon Scales Quest is not working
I am doing the Wurmslayer quest which is the Dragon Scale Quest {posts as recent as 2020 show it still functions}
P99 version wiki page for classic era reference
Checks
Observations and issue(s)
The trigger marked term, when spoken in game chat returns no results, no advancement (which should be a dialogue between her and Bronto beside her{I've omitted it here though it's on wikis if needed}).
Eventually you should be able to say "What Cabby Pale Ale?" (This would then start a spawn sequence of two NPCs Sir Hobble and Squire Fuzzmin, that you later give one of them the wurm scales)
Considerations/Summary
For the first point concerning her faction response, this is not a light race only quest, and in fact the earlier part requires you to goto Overthere and into the Outpost to talk to a gargoyle - which would be KoS to light race/class. One could argue the use of faction boosting buffs and/or having someone initiate it for you was the solution, though I don't believe that's the case as that would be odd where the first part is doable by dark race/class and the last part doable by light race/class. Usually in the types of scenarios where you have a quest for one race/class side only, it would be the entire quest line - not only parts of it. And that is when you would utilize faction/buff/sneak/feign death/charm tricks to act as a ballast
For the second part regarding dialogue -although the quest has changed some over time (most notably the npcs spawn together and in the same location//and are not attacked by mobs nearby), the dialogue should still be required to spawn them and at this time it seems to not work fully, hence this report.

- Wurmslayer is in the database alla clone
- NPCs involved are in the database alla clone
- No threads on forums about this[?]
Observations and issue(s)
- When you goto Lenka Stoutheart in Firiona Vie, she considers as scowling, as does Bronto beside her. To my recollection they were not scowling back in the day - however her Freeport version (she exists in two places intentionally), is inherently/meant to be scowling
- When hailed, she responds and states the expected dialogue : "We're just kidding with you, kid. Heh. Although they are making heroes kinda small these days. Hey , you [want to see something interesting]?"
