In Brighter Shores, the Brannof family requires your assistance in recovering a lost shipment of crucial weapons. This guide details how to complete "The Lost Shipment" quest.
Starting the Quest:
Locate Brannof Hall's Dining Room (accessible from Brannof Boulevard, near the Town Square). Speak with Cohen; he'll reveal the missing weapons. Crucially, speak to him again to receive two vital leads.
Completing the Quest:
Before proceeding, remove any Town Guard attire. This ensures cooperation from NPCs.
Lead 1: Captain Shirker:
Find Captain Shirker on his ship, The Vincible (southeast area of town). After a meal at The Delectable Dab (near Town Square), he'll mention a man in a blue waistcoat.
Locate the Man in a Blue Waistcoat in the Town Square. He'll lead you to "The Illusion," a weapons dealer, suggesting you impersonate "Sam" (who has a monobrow).
Obtain a monobrow from the hairdresser on Old Street West (costs 8 Silver and 280 Copper).
Lead 2: The Hooked Hand:
Investigate The Hooked Hand restaurant (near Eel Street). Inquire with patrons until directed to the Frequently Fresh Fish Stall.
The Fishmonger at the stall (past Eel Street Bridge) requires a Fetid Flounder (requires Level 25 Fishing). Catch it, write a note (using Quill, Ink, and Paper from Lord Brannof's desk), place it inside the fish, and give it to the Fishmonger.
Hide nearby; observe the "Furtive Stranger" who purchases the fish.
Follow the Stranger to Monab Row. Ensure your monobrow is visible (remove Guard armor). Identify yourself as "Sam" to gain entry. Defeat the Level 30 guard in combat, retrieve the Plumbatae, and return them to Brannof Hall to complete the quest.
