I am not saying not to do them at all. but I am saying that I dont think you
should pursue them directly do them as you obtain the item thru regular
questing and adventureing. Some people veiw the challenge of obtaining the
better equipment on their own without buying it a quest in itself. I have
done the quests as I get the items and I have the black wand and saphirre in
the bank right now. but i dont go out of my way to get them.
