Another contest entry!

If you side with the Assassin Lord, a new zone will open up. This will be triggered the same way the Assassin Lord quest is, starting at player level 15.

Once you've cleared this area, you can come back for access to the merchant services you would've gotten if you had saved the merchant - at a substantial markup over normal cost.

(Note: The artifact I add inflicts the "Intimidated" status effect, which won't be working correctly until version 1.3. Intimidated literally does nothing against most monsters at the moment.)

I eventually want to add stuff like raiding caravans and such. Please give feedback/suggestions!

While trying to enter Shatur, game crashed:

Reason could be something in your "stores.lua" or it is a conflict with zomnibus.

Ah, I fixed this already. I was hoping nobody had downloaded it yet. Just get the newer version.

(It worked fine in master, but not 1.2.4, so I just copied some code over.)

Thanks!

Edit: The quest worked flawless. I didn't use the help of the shadowblades, but the idea is neat as is the design of the fortress. I liked it pretty much.

I really enjoyed this quest. The shadowblade escorts are really cool, although I didn't use them much for fear of killing them; I wasn't sure if it would matter in the long term. So far, it seems like it wouldn't have. It would be awesome if you got them as permanent-unti-they-die rewards for the quest.

The zone is big, and pretty empty once you finish it. At first, I went back inside, looked in a few rooms, didn't see anything and figured they must spawn later. It might be nice if the finished quest in your log said something about how the place has the merchant in it. I never would have even known to go back there if it wasn't part of an addon that said I should.

It is also awesome to be able to side with the Assassin Lord for the sake of the prodigy (and unlocking poisons, if you haven't yet) without giving up the services of the merchant.

In the assassin lord's room, I triggered a trap that summoned hostile bandits, and killing them made the assassin lord hostile before I could talk to him.

I know this isn't your fault, it's happened to me before without your addon, but since it kept me from taking this quest it might be something that you want to look at.
