Temple of the Damned & Item Budgets

One of the early public quests (PQ) inside the Inevitable City is a great way to entertain yourself while crafting, browsing the auction house or similar. It takes place in the Lost Narrows and is on a 30min reset timer, just go there every now and then to check if its up. Once you participated you know when its on again. You can participate rank 11+ i would say. The thing with this quest is: Usually it's not that many people around and you can finish the two stages with approx. 3 people, while the quest offers a ton of loot bags. The rewards are rank 15 and if you're lucky you might snatch a purple/epic loot bag, i did. ;)
The first stage involves killing Enraged & Horrified Souls, the second is a boss inside the temple called Sovek the Merciless. As a sidenote: The loot chest spawning seems a bit bugged, sometimes it spawns not inside the temple. So if its not there run around quickly and try to find it - once i found it inside the Soul Vault (bank) close by. O.o

What's wrong with the warhammer item budgets for stats? Meanwhile i found a bunch of greens that are far better then blues the same level?!? So you better look closely and don't give that much just because of the color. There is also one PQ at the greenskin chapter 6 that yields a blue weapon for most classes, which is *insanely* good for that rank. This must be a glitch somehow, look at that axe i got from it.. that's better then many weapons i get as later rewards. Looks to me Mythic needs to adjust item budgets quite some...

Yeah, to clarify... it's an influence reward and not from a PQ loot bag. From what i hear most classes get a powerful-weird item from that chapter.
