In Brighter Shores, the Brannof family needs your help recovering a lost shipment of vital weapons. This guide details how to complete "The Lost Shipment" quest.
Quest Start:
Find Brannof Hall's dining room (off Brannof Boulevard, near the Town Square). Speak with Cohen; he'll reveal the missing weapons and provide two leads. Crucially, speak to him again to get both leads before leaving.
Quest Completion:
To solve the mystery, you must investigate two separate avenues. Remember to remove any Town Guard gear before questioning anyone.
1. Captain Shirker:
Find Captain Shirker on his ship, The Vincible (southeast area of town). After a meal at The Delectable Dab (near the Town Square), he'll mention a man in a blue waistcoat.
Locate the Man in a Blue Waistcoat in the Town Square. He'll point you to "The Illusion," but suggests impersonating "Sam" (who has a monobrow).
Visit the hairdresser on Old Street West (8 Silver and 280 Copper for the monobrow).
2. The Hooked Hand:
Investigate The Hooked Hand restaurant (near Eel Street). You'll need to speak with several patrons before learning about the Frequently Fresh Fish Stall.
Find the Frequently Fresh Fish Stall (past the Eel Street Bridge). The Fishmonger requires a Fetid Flounder (requires Level 25 Fishing Skill). Write a note (using Quill, Ink, and Paper – found on Lord Brannof's desk), place it in the flounder, and give it to the Fishmonger.
Hide nearby to observe the buyer.
Following the Stranger:
Follow the Furtive Stranger to Monab Row. Remove any Guard gear to reveal your monobrow, identify yourself as "Sam," and defeat the thief (Level 30) to retrieve the plumbatae. Return the weapons to Brannof Hall to complete the quest.
