    I saw a post some weeks back about firewine ruins. Someone was asking whether the loot was worth the pain of going through the dugeon and a few ppl said the there was a treasure pile in the middle of the ruins.

    The first time I started BG I skipped firewine. This time I decided to get the loot. I went through every inch of the place - a very irritating experience - and there is no loot to pick. I checked the walkthrough(from Sorcerer's Walkthru section) of BG and there was no mention of any loot there either.

    Is there loot there or not. If someone has actually found anything could they please give me the exact location? And what items do you get? Thanks.

    If you don't count the ghosts' quest and that mage near the entrace to the halfling's village there really isn't anything there. (Except for a huuuge amount of fire arrows :p)

    yeah, there is the quest to get the tome from the ghost at the entrance, the quest for the ghosts INSIDE the dungeon, and the mage in the lower bridge area (outdoors). You get some useful loot - don't remember what, long time ago, and lots of nice exp points and, as already mentioned, lots of fire arrows.It is a good idea to do the quest for the ghosts INSIDE as soon as possible as completion seems to cut down on the amount and power of respawning critters. Talk to the Bard and listen to his song before you go in if you want handy info.

    That 'tome quest' you're referring to is in Ulcaster, not Firewine...

    I only found a cracked armor and a scroll of cloudkill, guess a cloudkill is ok, except I can't memorize it due to the XP cap

    I guess that settles it then! Firewine, IMHO, is not really worth it. I managed to get tons of fire arrows and did finish all the quests.

    I don't find the experience gained all that much though. And the only worthwhile loot from the orge mage and the other mage is the Cloudkill scroll. The rest of the loot are just some semi-valuable gems. On the other hand, Firewine has to be the most irritating dungeon I have ever visited. Kobolds pop out of thin air! All the time! I think I'll stay away from it from now on.
