Howdy all <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wave.gif" alt="" /> ,

There are two ways to solve the Cattle Thief quest. One gives more experience, and one gives a +3 rep. Any thoughts on which solution gives the most advantage?

If you're good character, then don't turn him in and get +3 rep. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Reputation is better than exp.

He'll end up in the prison anyway.

Thanks Dragon. I have a hard time turning him in, considering just how much I've been stealing everything in sight <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />

You get a quest to find a cow rustler. Once you do, he explains his motivation for stealing and what he has been doing with the meat, and asks for your help. You can be un-sympathetic and turn him in (slightly more experience points) or agree not to (more reputation), in which case the guards catch him and he still ends up in jail. Oh, well; that'll teach him to get caught. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/badsmile2.gif" alt="" />

But I can't get this quest to work at all! I've hung around the cows and nobody bothers them, and I've accosted the thief (name begins with L) near BB Inn andall he does is give me back the money he nicked and runs off. What am I missing?

You need to talk farmer Tom (near Stormfist Castle) to get the quest. You will find the thief in the NW part of poor area (just across Blue Boar Inn).
