Starting the miniquest

• Select an option
  • Can we talk about assignments?
    • (Non-miniquest dialogue.)
  • Kerapac
    • (Non-miniquest dialogue.)
  • Let's talk about you.
    • Select an option
      • Tell me more about your background.
        • (Non-miniquest dialogue.)
      • How did you become a slayer master?
        • (Non-miniquest dialogue.)
      • What is this temple?
        • (Non-miniquest dialogue.)
      • Tell me about your poisons.
        • Laniakea: Poison... Where to begin? How such a tiny drop of liquid may kill a man in either the most peaceful manner or cause them the most painful death you can imagine. As you can see, as someone from the Order of Slayer Masters, I remain unmarked and lack the scars you see in my companions. I tend to fight a little cleaner you could say. Whilst I can handle myself in the thick of combat, I prefer to inflict poisons upon my enemy and let that do the fighting.
        • Player: That sounds like fighting dirty to me.
        • Laniakea: It only takes a cut. Once the wound is inflicted I can vanish into the shadows and let the poison do its work.
        • Player: How have you not accidentally cut yourself?
        • Laniakea: Over my years of studying different poisons, I saw fit to drink doses of each daily to build up an immunity. Now I could drink a vial of the most deadly poisons and not feel a thing.
        • Player: Could you teach me how to make these poisons?
        • Laniakea: I will not.
        • (Before accepting the miniquest:)
          • Laniakea: Don't suppose you want to help me out with a little something?
          • Player: Depends on what it happens to be.
          • Help Laniakea?
            • I'll help you out.
              • Laniakea: I always travel light you see. Mobility is crucial and it always helps to not be weighed down. Because of this, I only brought a small assortment of poisons with me. I never anticipated creatures this large... I fear my current poisons won't be potent enough to have an effect on them. I need a Fugu, one of the most poisonous fish that has ever existed. If I could get hold of one, I can extract the poison and bottle it in case it's needed in the future. Would you still help me?
              • (Quest Overview interface opens.)
                • Not Right Now
                  • Laniakea: Oh, okay then. Hopefully we don't get attacked here before I get hold of that poison or I'll be worried for everyone.
                • Accept Quest
                  • Laniakea: Thank you!
                  • Laniakea: Fugu are not easy to find, I've seen only a few in my life. I do believe that this island has the correct climate for them to thrive. I recall hearing that they tend to be found in warmer waters. One last thing before you head off. Fugu are smart fish. You won't be able to catch one with a regular fishing rod and bait; you will need to make some custom equipment. You'll need a fishing rod that will blend in with your environment and a custom fishing lure that shines bright and has a strong odour. If you do this, you may stand a chance at catching one. The island should be able to provide everything you need. Thank you again for agreeing to help.
                  • Player: Well, I wasn't expecting it to be so complicated.
                  • Laniakea: It will be worth it! Once I have the poison, I will be able to comfortably say that I can protect this camp.
                  • (Continues above.)
            • I've got things to do.
              • (Shows the previous-to-previous options.)
        • (After already starting the miniquest:)
          • (If the miniquest isn't yet completed:)
            • Helping Laniakea
              • Remind me what to do.

Gathering items

Old spring

Without the spring

• Player receives old spring.
• Player: Perfect, a spring. It looks strong enough that I can use this as the base for the fishing lure.

With the spring

• Player: I already have one of these springs sitting around somewhere, I don't need another.

Shimmering feather

Without the feather

• Player receives shimmering feather.
• Player: I bet I could use this to make my fishing lure more attractive for the fish Laniakea has asked me to catch.

With the feather

• Player: I already have one of these feathers sitting around somewhere, I don't need another.

Block of stone

Investigating rocks

Without the block

• Player receives block of stone.
• Player: There's a strange looking rock here. I wonder if the Archaeologists back at camp can tell me anything about it?

With the block

• Player: I already have one of these sitting around somewhere, I don't think I need another.

Talking to Alpheus or Eliza with the block of stone in your inventory

• [Alpheus/Eliza]: Ooo, what have you got there?
• Player: I'm not too sure, it was a rock I found whilst looking for a Fugu.
• [Alpheus/Eliza]: A what?
• Player: Just an awkward to find fish... It doesn't really matter, can you tell me anything about the rock?
• [Alpheus/Eliza]: Well, it's just a rock. But it does look like there is something inside. I'll see if I can get it out for you.
• Player has block of stone removed from them. Player receives dirty stick.
• [Alpheus/Eliza]: It looks like an old piece of jungle wood, you could do with cleaning it up a little. I have a bucket sitting around which would be suitable.
• Player: Thanks, I probably could have smashed that up myself though.
• [Alpheus/Eliza]: It's not as easy as it looks. Maybe one day I could teach you.

Talking to Alpheus or Eliza with the dirty stick

• [Alpheus/Eliza]: You really should clean up that dirty stick, it may be of use when clean. I have a bucket sitting around which you're welcome to use, it's a bit mucky but will do the job.

Washing at the mucky water

With the dirty stick in the backpack

• Player has dirty stick removed from them. Player receives immaculate jungle stick.
• Player: Wow, thats one clean stick!

After washing the dirty stick

• Player: I don't have anything I can clean in here.

Herby meat

Finding ancient arbuck

• Player receives ancient arbuck.
• Player: This is one old looking herb, it really smells. I wonder if I could use this with some meat to make the fishing lure Laniakea said I needed.

Investigating the strange foliage again

• Player: I already have one of these herbs sitting around somewhere, I don't need another.

Combining the ancient arbuck with the raw arcane apoterrasaur meat

• Player has ancient arbuck and raw arcane apoterrasaur meat removed from them. Player receives herby meat.
• Player: Wow, that meat smells, I'm not sure if it's a vile or pleasant smell. Regardless, this should work as bait for the fishing lure.
• Nothing interesting happens.

Jungle vine

Without the item

• Player receives jungle vine.
• Player: This vine is pretty strong. I bet I could use this as a fishing line.

With the item

• Player: I already have one of these vines sitting around somewhere, I don't need another.

Using the immaculate jungle stick on the jungle vine

• Player has immaculate jungle stick and jungle vine removed from them. Player receives custom jungle fishing rod.
• Player: Perfect, this rod is just what I need to catch the fish for Laniakea.

Custom fishing lure

Without all the items

• Player: I think I'm missing something to make this fishing lure.

Combining herby meat, shimmering feather and the old spring

• Player has herby meat, shimmering feather and old spring removed from them. Player receives custom fishing lure.
• Player: That is one good looking fishing lure! I think?

Strange fishing spot

Without the correct equipment

• Player: Something very odd is swimming down there, I don't think I should take a look.

With the correct equipment

• The player fishes for Fugu.
• Player receives Fugu.
• Player: Wow, I caught that quick. It's not a very pretty looking fish.

Afterwards, before completing the miniquest

• Player: I've already caught a Fugu, I don't think I need another.

After completing the miniquest

• Player: I've already caught a Fugu for Laniakea, I don't think I need another.

Finishing up

• Laniakea: Wow, a Fugu, you actually managed to find one. Thank you!
• Player: Well, it wasn't easy.
• Laniakea: Well I appreciate the help, I'll get started on the poison right away. Before I forget, take this as a reward for your help. I found it close to our camp. I'm not really sure what it is, maybe you can find a use for it?
• Player has Fugu removed from them. Player receives Totem of Intimidation middle.
• Player: Oh wow, it's a totem piece. This will be really useful, thanks!
• Congratulations! You have completed: 'Helping Laniakea (miniquest)' - Complete this Novice miniquest.
