The quest was probably changed the same time that Kerra Ridge was revamped in April of 2000 (Around the time of Kunark's release) to a higher level dungeon to attract more players. At the time, Kerra Ridge was meant to be a low level dungeon similar to Crushbone for Erudites. But since most Erudites preferred to just travel to Blackburrow to hunt, it went underused. It was changed to a higher level dungeon with better loot to try to attract more players.
