After MANY hours, I have run into a troll three times. I beat him twice but I didn’t receive anything. My rewards were the standard key and a few gold. Is this normal? It kinda sucks that he doesn’t automatically drop a vault key when defeated. ---

Gnome not troll. I’ve seen a troll on average about once every 3-4 hours. That’s sucks but ok. What is worse is that even after you beat him there is only a small chance of him dropping a key? That’s crazy. ---

After reading the forums I believe there is no bug with Gnomes and rewards, however the Developers do need to work on the on screen notification and post battle rewards a bit more. As they are occasionally very unclear. 1. It could have been a player Gnome. Are you absolutely 100% sure you got the special bag animation when you killed him? 2. Your reward could have been a matching Minor Traitstone. Did check to confirm a triple Minor was awarded? ---

I got the graphic both times I beat him. However, there was nothing listed on the reward screen that showed any sort of loot bag. ---

100% sure it wasn’t a player gnome and saw the special bag animation when I killed him. ---

Yeah there wasn’t a bag at all. Frustrating. ---

As you are on console and it’s happening the **vast majority** of the time for you (66% of the time per your OP). Record a video!!! It ill help the Developers determine what is occurring. I’ve only found 14 so far so its too small of sample to say one way or another (thus far I’m 14/14) ---

Did you win the match? You won’t receive the treasure gnome rewards, even if you kill the gnome, if you ultimately lose the match (unsure if this is intended or a bug). ---

Found 4 so far. Last one was a spectacular 100 souls. Why even waste my time. Fwiw I’m rank 190 so I need souls badly but 100 instead of a gem/vault key or diamonds… is just a slap in the face ---

> [@Icarium81](#): > > Why even waste my time. I don’t understand this mindset. Is it “more worth your time” to wait around and let it run away on purpose? Is your time better spent if it’s a normal enemy worth 1 Soul instead of a gnome worth 100 Souls? Did you somehow lose something by killing that gnome? I understand that the rewards may not have been what you **wanted** , but…I mean, that’s how random drops work. ---

The 30k gold was fine. The 2 gems and then the 5 gems WITH a gem key was awesome. But 100 souls is just a waste. Their so rare its a slap in the face to get such a menial reward. ---

It won’t affect the special rewards from the gnomes. It will affect the souls and stuff you normally get in any battle. ---

@Ozball is it true the vault rewards been nerfed also at the same time then the gnome rewards? ---

A few days ago there were no such things as gnomes, and you’d get 1 Soul for killing something. Today, you randomly got 100 Souls instead. A lower bonus reward than you were hoping for is not a “SLAP IN THE FACE!”. Come on, dude. I get that you’re less excited by the common / lower rewards, but the snotty attitude isn’t helping your case. ---

For those who say they don’t receive rewards, did you scroll the bar? Cause if you don’t scroll you might not see the rewards ![IMG_8826](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/gemsofwar/original/3X/9/7/9764749fc8b81ac4d6631c2840cba429e3bebd94.JPG) ![IMG_8827](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/gemsofwar/original/3X/0/c/0caea12550288e1c2ac1046f638f131dfe05ae87.JPG) ---
