REWORKUnsecured souls claim period reworked.

There are a few examples below to show how they compare. Old was 165s (assuming bounty was at least 165s). New is: 1x Small Camp: 77s 2x Medium Camps: 163s 1x Hard Camp: 193s 4x Medium Camps: 230s 2x Hard Camps: 263s 1x Hard Camp + 3x Medium Camps: 270s 2x Hard Camp + 6x Medium Camps: 354s
