Outcomes

Added gear requires a successful quest payment and a qualifying outcome. Quest mail alone does not count as payment.

You broke the faithful's rite before the breach opened, and Ysolde Marnhel paid for it.	100%	Yes
Ysolde Marnhel stopped waiting for word of a broken rite.	No added payment	No

With Questlines enabled, these outcomes control the added rewards. Gold multipliers apply only to gold the quest actually pays. A gear choice offers a weapon, armour and jewellery; keep one. See Quest rewards and loot for rarity, payment and online reward rules.

Previous step: The Faithful.

Next step: Through the Burning Door.

Scripted gold

Payment	Base amount (gold)
Gold payment	300–600

These are the script’s unscaled payment ranges, before the outcome multiplier and any party split. A payment still requires its quest objective or branch; the listed payments are not automatically awarded together.
