I am suggesting the mobs inside of stronghold drop mesos and/or equipments. Currently, mobs inside stronghold only drop their etc. Not only are these mobs the highest level non-boss monsters in the game, they also hit the hardest. As a lv 2xx bishop, I get hit 6-7k. So not only do you burn through potions insanely fast, but you aren't even breaking even with mesos/equipment gains because nothing drops.
