TOB - Aureate Covert Merc & Part tasks

[GaaGaa]

Mercenary Tasks
All are from Sergeant Crog - /loc

Ground Them – say “Up”

1. Kill 6 Skyguard, Skyguardian, or Skydefender

Pound Them – say “Ground”

1. Killl 9 Terrastriker, Striker or Sentinel

Them is Round – say “eyes”

1. Kill 3 Observer, inspector or Curator

Push Them Around – say “hands”

1. Kill 3 Artificer, Maker, or Craftsman

Partisan Tasks
All are from Researcher Rosinda Wrannstad - /loc -25, -1515
#1 Another Kind of Magic – say “physically” – THIS IS A GROUP TASK!

1. Steal one of their dodecahedron shaped magic storage devices and deliver it to Researcher Rosinda.
   Go up to the 2^nd floor of building (there are elevators on either side of the hall at 0, 100…click the dodecahedron to activate the elevator).
   the item you’re after (Empty Dodecahedron) is a ground spawn that looks like a bag… I found at at /loc -30, 160, /loc 215, -450 & /loc 120, 85 – there may be more
   Hand it to Rosinda. She makes no reply, but you get step 2.
2. Find something that might be useful to help the researcher access the magic in the storage device.
   Task notes say, “maybe you can find some documentation or notes”. Although that sounds like you’re looking for a ground spawn item, it’s actually a drop called Outworld Dragon Prism. I got it from a scalewrought artificer on the 2^nd floor, but from what I’ve seen in forums, it is a semi-rare zone-wide drop (It’s rare enough that I had all the merc tasks completed prior to getting the drop – probably could have managed at least three or four times through the merc tasks while waiting for it to drop)
   
   Give the Outworld Dragon Prism to Researcher Rosinda Wrannstad to finish task.

#2 Translations – say “information” (This is a group task) – partisan #1 is a pre-req
NOTE: If you say “came from” she’ll give you Translation Prism Text Part 1 – not sure what this is for yet

1. Somewhere in that building someone must have a device for reading the prism
   After about 3 kills, I got Incomprehensible Device from a scalewrought terrastriker on the 1^st floor.
2. Deliver the Incomprehensible Device to Researcher Wrannstad
   Turn it in
3. Find a source of magic the Rosinda might be able to use to activate the device.
   Up on the 2^nd floor: partially empowered Dodecahedron @ /loc 90, -450, /loc 30, -450 & /loc -105, -450 (as with the empty, it looks like a bag)
   Turn it in to finish task.

#3 Evolution or Revolution – say “Specialized magic” (This is a group task) – partisan # 1 & 2 are pre-req

Note – the items needed don’t seem very rare, but they don’t always drop (I got from 1^st Artificer – it took 5 terrastrikers to get that drop) – you can wait and turn all in at once, or do after each drop

1. Deliver a sample from one of the observers
   a scalewrought observer drops Observer Wing
   Turn it in (can wait and turn in all at once)
2. Deliver a sample from one of the terrastrikers
   a scalewrought terrastriker drops Terrastriker Arm
3. Deliver a sample from one of the artificers
   a scalewrought artificer drops Artificer Arm
4. Deliver a sample from one of the skyguards
   a scalewrought skyguard drops Skyguard Wing
   
   Once steps 1 – 4 are done, you get step 5.
5. Find something that will help determine where these things came from
   I looted Outworld Skychart from a scalewrought curator – don’t know if it drops off other mobs or not, but it seemed to me that a curator would be a likely mob to have some info so I went after it after I’d killed a few random zone trash and got the drop. When I redid on live, went straight to the curator and got on first drop, so I'm now relatively sure it is a drop from the curator only, and always drops if you're at this step.
   Turn it in to finish task

As of now, I still don’t know what Translated Prism Text Part 1 is for; perhaps another zone’s tasks
