The Reticent Tinkerer - Quest

December 3, 2024 -- Census is back after a 3 day outage and characters are once again exporting. Please note if your EQ2 character used the new Petamorph Key Ring feature, it will FAIL to export to Census or EQ2U. Avoid using this feature until a fix is available!!

As a drastic measure, if you are willing to irrevocably destroy any petamorph wands you have stored in the Petamorph Key Ring, you can type /delete_keyring_item 0 1234567890 where 1234567890 is the ItemID of the stored petamorph.

Developers are aware of this issue, but you can always post your respectful feedback in the

Census isn't updating for some toons

thread.

If YOU want to help add Scars of Destruction Quests to EQ2U, please visit your Active Quest Journal and find further instructions there!

I spoke with a resident of The Gnomeland Security Headquarters in Steamfont named Redd, whose house appears to be on fire, or something, I don't really know. He didn't seem perturbed by that fact, and invited me in to help him, or something. Again, I really don't know...

Scales with Level

Well, I've been invited into Redd's abode, so I might as well help myself in, after I put on this gas mask.

Pick up Redd's gas mask outside his house and put it on (in Steamfont Mountains)

Enter Redd's abode with his gas mask equipped (in Steamfont Mountains)

I should speak with Redd and see what he has in store for me, if anything...

Speak to Redd near the entrance (in Redd's Abode)

See what Redd's about (in Redd's Abode)

Find out exactly what Redd wants (in Redd's Abode)

Speak to Redd again (in Redd's Abode)

Redd needs some parts off some newly destroyed clockworks. I am to load up a cannonball into the cannon, pull the gate lever to open the gates, wait for the clockworks to arrive then fire the cannon. I'll need to keep loading and firing the cannon until I've destroyed enough clockworks for parts, then close the gates. Should I fail at any point, I'll need to close then reopen the gates to attract more clockworks.

Open the gates (in Redd's Abode)

Destroy the invading clockworks (in Redd's Abode)

Close the gates (in Redd's Abode)

Gather parts from the clockworks you just destroyed (in Redd's Abode)

Return to Redd (in Redd's Abode)

Wait for Redd (in Redd's Abode)

Now Redd needs upgraded parts, this time from Klak'Anon. I need to take the hoverlift and fly there over the gates.

Take the hoverlift to Klak'Anon (in Redd's Abode)

Now that I've reached Klak'Anon: Redd's Request using the hoverlift from Redd's Abode, I need a bunch of mechanized capacitor plugs from advanced clockwork drones and a couple binary fluctuator gears. I'll need to use this Tik-Tok algorithmic decodicon to help me decode and shut off the panels holding the gears, wherever those are.

Obtain mechanized capacitor plugs (in Klak'Anon: Redd's Request)

0/6

Safely extract a couple binary fluctuator gears (in Klak'Anon: Redd's Request)

A drone stole my Tik-Tok algorithmic decodicon! I need to get it back!

Obtain the decodicon from the clockwork orderly (in Klak'Anon: Redd's Request)

Once again, I need a bunch of mechanized capacitor plugs from advanced clockwork drones and a couple binary fluctuator gears. I'll need to use this Tik-Tok algorithmic decodicon to help me decode and shut off the panels holding the gears, wherever those are.

Obtain mechanized capacitor plugs (in Klak'Anon: Redd's Request)

0/6

Safely extract a couple binary fluctuator gears (in Klak'Anon: Redd's Request)

Time to get back to Redd with his upgrades.

Return to Redd (in Redd's Abode)

Redd appears to be installing the parts I obtained for him into a couple clockworks. Those weren't here before...

Wait for Redd's signal (in Redd's Abode)

Press the big red button (in Redd's Abode)
