In Brighter Shores, the Brannof family requires your assistance in recovering 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:
Before proceeding, remove any Town Guard attire to avoid suspicion. You'll investigate two separate leads concurrently.
Lead 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 directs 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 for the monobrow).
Lead 2: The Hooked Hand:
Inquire at The Hooked Hand restaurant (near Eel Street). You'll be directed to The Frequently Fresh Fish Stall.
The Fishmonger needs a Fetid Flounder (requires Level 25 Fishing). Write a note (using Quill, Ink, and Paper from Lord Brannof's desk), place it in the fish, and give it to the Fishmonger. Hide nearby to observe the buyer.
Follow the Furtive Stranger to Monab Row. Ensure your monobrow is visible (remove Guard gear). Identify yourself as "Sam," defeat the thief (Level 30), and retrieve the plumbatae.
Return the recovered weapons to Brannof Hall to complete the quest.
