A named reward uses its listed base only if your class can equip it; otherwise the fitted reward has a different base and no special name.

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: A Wagon’s Load.

Scripted gold

Payment	Base amount (gold)
Gold payment	100–200

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.
