Awesome! When I do my next playthrough I'm going to loot it more thoroughly now that the fire goes out. Previously, even if I cleared out Waukeen's Rest, went to the underdark, came back up 3-4 longrests later, it STILL appeared to be on fire with the Flaming Fist girl praying outside.

My cousin is in Act 1, so I grabbed his character, unlinked him, made him toss back a fire resistance potion and ran straight to Benryn's room. Grabbed the chest, brought it out and made Astarion unlock it xD GOT THE HAMMER! Woo. Okay so I put the hammer on and made him jump around and I was expecting like thunderwaves from his feet, but it was more like a small transparent circle xD Underwhelming 8'D I'm going to grab a hireling and make him a Monk.
