9 Video Game Rewards You Shouldn't Accept
5. Prowler's Profit - Skyrim
Skyrim is littered with weapons, spells, new breath attacks, and passive boosts to your character to act as prizes and incentives to complete side-quests since exp in Skyrim doesn't work as it does in other RPGs.
However, this means that some rewards are leagues better than others, and one of the most useless is Prowler's Profit. This passive is the reward you get for collecting all of the Stones of Barenziah. The stones are scattered all over the world, so depending on when you take this quest, this one can be sitting in your quest log for quite some time.
When you do get it, though, you'll find that Prowler's Profit all but guarantees that you will find gemstones when you open up treasure chests. And since gemstones go for big prices at merchants, this can be a big help when you're low on cash.
Except being low on cash in Skyrim is VERY hard, especially after traveling all over the map to get this perk. Skyrim fans have long since cracked the code on how to become obscenely wealthy without consequence, and this quest is so long, that by the time you get around to completing it, odds are you're already rolling in dough anyway.
What results is a lot of storage crates filled with useless, economy-breaking gemstones.
