Walkthrough[edit | edit source]
Manip Falcäo can be found at the South Span Checkpoint. The quest is triggered on approaching the checkpoint, answering the Flaming Fists' questions and being scanned by the Steel Watcher. As the party is about to be arrested as enemies of the Absolute, a group of rebel gnomes pop up and use a Sunflash grenade to disable the machine. The Flaming Fists at the checkpoint give chase, including Manip Falcäo. Immediately after the attack, he can be found on the side of the checkpoint, unable to chase after the gnomes. Otherwise, if the party wait too long, he moves inside one of the buildings near the checkpoint at X: (-11 Y: 53.
Falcäo states that the gnomes have been a scourge upon his checkpoint, causing panic, and request that a brave adventurer cut them down. The Fists are unavailable to do the task, as they are busy guarding the gates for Enver Gortash's coronation. Thus, he seeks out the party to do the deed.
The gnome hideout can be accessed by climbing down a set of vines at X: (38 Y: 26. Climbing down starts a survival check which, if passed, shows a set of footprints leading to a cave.
After the hideout is found, the party can speak to the gnome leader, Wulbren, before cutting him down. If "The Fists sent me to crush your resistence. Time to die." is chosen, then the entire hideout becomes hostile. Or, the party can attack Wulbren without any talking. Killing him and looting his body grants the item

Notes[edit | edit source]
- If this quest is completed,
also autocompletes, as Wulbren's desire for revenge dies with him.

- If Wulbren is killed or exiled by Barcus Wroot outside the Steel Watch Foundry as part of quest, his head cannot be looted making this quest impossible to complete.
