Monsters and similar respawn in about 1 hr...
I think this answers a question I just had as I was reading this
LPC document about how often the reset() and init() functions are called.
...in some cases, the quitting/reentering/wearing eq back/continue killing can be a solution...
Wow, I hadn't thought of that... that's very interesting. Thanks!
last time I got to that chest I actually CAME from Randalar's area
I found Drow City 'accidently' via the Ogre cave because of the Driders (they wouldn't let me go back in the direction I came from). I just found Randalar's area last night (4w,3n,nw) but haven't explored it yet
Thanks to everyone for the excellent tips
