In Brighter Shores, assist the Brannof family in recovering their stolen 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 leads.
Completing the Quest:
Before proceeding, remove any Town Guard attire.
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 direct you to "The Illusion," requiring you to 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:
Inquire at The Hooked Hand (near Eel Street). You'll be directed to the Frequently Fresh Fish Stall.
The Fishmonger at the stall (past Eel Street Bridge) requires a Fetid Flounder (requires Level 25 Fishing Skill). Catch one, write a note (using Quill, Ink, and Paper from Lord Brannof's desk), and hide it inside.
Give the fish to the Fishmonger, hide, and observe the "Furtive Stranger."
Follow the Stranger to Monab Row. Remove your Guard armor, identify yourself as "Sam," defeat the thief (Level 30), and retrieve the Plumbatae.
Return the Plumbatae to Brannof Hall to complete the quest.
