People always referred to having to rush to complete this quest but that might b bc Drex would depop before u could turn in boxes. Also people discribed "skeletal hordes" of 6 ish around when they went out looking so it appears that either people were spawning several instances of the 4 skeletons at once or left over ones from previous attempts were still roaming.
this was just info from the comments on Alla under the quest "Tiny skeletons".
here is a quote of sorta what i described above from 2001
This is the first quest I've completed (other than newbie semi-quests). The biggest problem is that Watchman Dexlin is SO RARE. I actually gave up on the quest after waiting for an entire weekend for him to spawn. I was passing through the area and sent an ooc msg asking if Dexlin was at the stone bridge, and he was. So I began the quest, and my level 20 ranger tracked the skeletons, most of which were blue cons. Unfortunately, about 6-8 skeletons were running together. They were very fast (I had SOW up, too). And they swarmed me. I kited back to the teleport ring, where some tough chars helped me out and let me loot the skeletons, or I wouldn't have been able to complete the quest. For as tough a quest as this can be (waiting, and the swarm of skels), it would take a group of level 17-20 chars, or kind help, like I got. All in all, the boots really aren't worth the trouble for most people, but I enjoyed completing the quest nonetheless.
