Description

Targeting device, eh? <Mux eyes you warily for a moment.> Yeah, I sold one. Never saw the guy's face, though. Real private fella. A punch card fell out of his pocket as he was leavin', though. I had one of my lackeys tail him out of town in one of my rocket cars to return it. Customer service, y'know? Louse never came back! But hey, if you're lookin' for trouble, they were headed west. That's all I can tell ya.

Where to go

Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.

    <Whoever this buyer is, they seem to have left in a hurry. Acrid fumes sit heavy in the air around you, and a campfire in the center of the area smolders.> <Perhaps something here can point you in the right direction?>
