No problem, we're here to Classicquest right?

More confirmation for the long-ass UGuk ground spawn:

You haven't seen the cleric quests then, 8 hours waiting for a bag to
appear on the floor of a cabin, on a tree stump, in a waterfall and
underwater.


Want to know the real kicker ?

Clerics have to kill your glacier bear ASWELL (he drops both your
quest item, and a quest item WE need)


You got it easy compared to us (with the possible exception of
Grizzleknot)

That second bolded bit means that I think the Everfrost icon ground spawn was actually originally a drop from the Glacier Bear. I will dig a bit more on that one.

Edit: Bingo

Actually the bear dropped the glacier bear pelt and an icon last night
for me. At least the shaman armor is not no-drop.

Lastly, it looks like Cleric armor was no-drop for a month or so after temple of sol ro release. I'll leave it to devs to decide whether or not that's worth an era rule.
