Caravans – QUESTION EDITED
-
Me and a group did the caravan and lost all but one of our oxen to a random spawn right over our group (one of our group members crashed right as this happened so it was pretty chaotic) but that's not the problem considering it's 1000 gold and still ballin pay even if a few die.
But that's not the problem, random spawns right over the caravan can be easily defeated without much problem with good organization.
The problem isn't commanding your oxen to stay back either, since spawns come from both sides and all you have to do is one simple "V" command.
THE PROBLEM is that once you get back to the caravan girl, she doesn't have an option for you to unload your oxen and you can't tell the oxen to unload so it's a no-go for pay. Last time I did it a DM had to get rid of my oxen and pay me (not to mention my whole group left before a DM could help because they were having trouble)

You're supposed to manually open up the oxen's inventory and take the packages on them and give them to your party leader. Also, don't do that in the middle of the quest, lest the ox become bugged and heavily encumbered.

Too bad there was nothing in the oxes inventory. :\
