	'''Blood Money''' is a [[quest]] given by an NPC, or by a [[Wanted Poster]] in the [[Canyon Rim Mines]] area on the surface of [[Act II]]. Players must find [[Husam]], a wanted outlaw, slay him, and return his head to [[Captain Dagved]] in the [[Enclave of Khamsim]] to earn the full reward.

 ::The Blood Money quest was different, since the parts weren’t all there if I didn’t do it in the right order.  Here’s how it worked, as best I can remember.
 ::* The first time I got the quest from the Wanted Poster, but was never able to find the Outlaw Camp in my limited play time.
-::* The second time I found the camp and Husami was there. He gave me some lip and played like a tough guy, but he died very easily, his head rolling cleanly free. As best I recall, I received a reward immediately, even though I’d never seen the Wanted Poster in that game.

 ::* The third time I found the Outlaw Camp, but it was empty of any NPCs. I then tried to find the Enclave where I’d previously seen the poster, but couldn’t find it, or the Wanted Poster. I suspect it wasn’t to be found, as that random quest simply hadn’t spawned in that game, though it seemed odd that the Outlaw Camp had?
-One gruesome oddity that no one at Blizzcon thought to check: What did Husam's head look like once picked up? It, like all quest items, went directly into the quest items tab of the inventory. But it should have been visible there, before it was returned for the bounty. Would it have been gross and bloody with the tongue lolling out? Or just a round lump in a sack?

-The Outlaw Camp is fairly far from the Enclave, located (according to semi-conflicting player reports) in the next level over, [[Howling Plateau]]. It's underwhelming when reached. The camp appeared to spawn in every game, though the quest did not always appear with it. The camp always looked the same anyway; just a cluster of tents that could not be entered.

 The Outlaw Camp is definitely not to be confused with the [[Caldeum Bandit City]].

 ==Completing the Quest==
 Completing the quest seemed to vary, depending on whether the quest was given by the Wanted Poster or by Captain Dagved. The confliction confusion was described in Diii.net's Blizzcon 2009 Quest Report: [http://diablo.incgamers.com/blog/comments/diablo-3-quests-detailed/]
 ::I never actually finished this quest, since the one game I found Husam and got his head, I never returned to the Enclave of Khamsim to get the reward. I did note a bunch of oddities about this quest though, in terms of which parts of it were visible depending on which order I found them in. It showed clearly that the quests in Diablo 3 are not set up as they were in Diablo 2.
 ::In Diablo 2 the order of events seldom mattered; if you got to the Graveyard in Act 1, you’d find Blood Raven whether you’d already received the quest from Kashya or not. And if you killed Blood Raven, when you returned to town and talked to Kashya, she’d first recite the quest giving speech, then immediately go into the success speech, which began with those familiar words.  “I can hardly believe you’ve defeated Blood Raven!” which is as much of the speech as most furiously-clicking players ever heard.
