    • Quest BM: Fixed a dialogue loop in "apprentice's murder"
    • Quest BM03/BM04: Fixed checks in "components for a ritual" entry that failed if player had more than one ingredient
    • Quest DSE02: Increased reward's charge from 0 to 20
    • Quest DSE03: Modified dialogue choice filters in "accuse poisoner" entries; removed the script commands that added negative quantities of beer after finishing quest since they broke the dialogue results; gave Ildgar restocking beer by default

    • Quest DSTG02: Doors with a lock level of 0 will appear as unlocked, but are actually locked and impossible to unlock. Fixed this issue ("Dragonstar West, Warehouse" doors) by adding new unlocked door reference and script, disabling it when quest starts, and enabling existing DSTG02 doors with updated lock level (0 to 60) and modified script
    • Quest DSTG02: There's a chance that the player won't enter the DSW Warehouse and thus won't load Drazar so he'd unable to be moved to the Dragon Fountain Inn; fixed this by creating unique, disabled copies of Drazar and J'Rizar in the Inn

    • Quest KWTG: Overhauled trespass crime mechanics in KW TG quests and added some voice lines
