In Brighter Shores, the Brannof family requires your assistance to recover a lost shipment of vital weapons. This guide details how to complete "The Lost Shipment" quest.
Quest Initiation:
Locate Brannof Hall's Dining Room, accessible from Brannof Boulevard near the Town Square. Speak with Cohen; he'll reveal the missing weapons and provide two leads. Crucially, speak to him a second time to receive both clues.
Quest Completion:
To solve the mystery, investigate both leads. Remember to remove any Town Guard gear before questioning individuals.
Lead 1: Captain Shirker:
Find Captain Shirker on his ship, The Vincible, in the southeast part of town. After a meal at The Delectable Dab (near the Town Square), he'll mention a man in a blue waistcoat.
Locate this man in the Town Square. He'll direct you to "The Illusion," a weapons dealer, suggesting you impersonate someone named Sam (who has a monobrow).
Visit the hairdresser on Old Street West (8 Silver and 280 Copper required for the monobrow).
Lead 2: The Hooked Hand:
Investigate The Hooked Hand restaurant near Eel Street. After speaking to several patrons, you'll be guided to…
…the Frequently Fresh Fish Stall beyond the Eel Street Bridge. The Fishmonger requires a Fetid Flounder (requires Level 25 Fishing Skill). Use a Quill, Ink, and Paper (found on Lord Brannof's desk if needed) to write a note and place it inside the fish.
Give the fish to the Fishmonger, then hide to observe who buys it.
Follow the Furtive Stranger to Monab Row. Remove your Guard gear, claim to be "Monobrow Sam," defeat the thief in combat (Level 30), and retrieve the Plumbatae. Return the weapons to Brannof Hall to complete the quest.
