Keeping Pace

Have Zamek create a diversion, then steal Rizzle's plans for Pozzik on the Shimmering Flats.

Description

The Brassbolts brothers have discovered a new building material, that's the only explanation that makes sense. Their cars have been operating faster than before, but their designs, and all the other data we've gathered from their runs is identical.

What we do know, is that Rizzle Brassbolts has been focused on the plans for this new discovery almost constantly.

Zamek can create a diversion for you, so that you can steal those plans from them.

Folks this is the easiest quest you will ever do.
1650 x 2 exp.

1. Get quest.
2. Talk to Zamek - he's a goblin right nearby, should have a BLUE ? mark over his head.&nbsp Click ACCEPT. Then watch him run over and explode a bomb.&nbsp At this point Rizzle will run out of his hut.&nbsp Run in and loot the plans, looks like a scroll on the floor.&nbsp Click Complete then Accept the next quest (Rizzle's Schematics)
3. Return to Pozzik for completion.

Couldn't be easier.

The level 58 player must have already done it and forgot about it or something - other than that, I have no explaination.

I did this quest today.&nbsp It was very simple. Scout the Gnome's side of the pit.&nbsp You will find Rizzle standing atop of the schematics in question.&nbsp He is inside a hut.

Accept the quest from Pozzik, and then talk to Zamek. When Zamek heads off to plant his bomb DO NOT follow him - go straight to the schematic on the floor and wait.

When the bomb explodes, Rizzle will go investigate.&nbsp Right click on the plans, and complete the quest.

Talk to Zamek at 79,77 next to the goblin hut. He will run toward the gnome camp and create a small explosion. Rizzle will run out from the gnome hut. Enter it and the plans are right there at 77,77.

Have the guy go set the bomb and eventually Rizzle says what was that.&nbsp Walk into the house nearby and the plans are on the ground.&nbsp I had to do the distraction twice is all.

Looks like it's still broken as of this afternoon. Zamek runs over and creates his explosion, but nothing else happens.

Look in the little building where Brassbolts is inside... the plans are on the floor behind him. When he runs out to check on the noise, you just pick them up. Easy as pie!

The Bug people are hitting now is, if you have for some reason not finished reading the quest page, OR if your inventory is full (like mine was) you can't pick up the ore sample.
Then, you can't go back and do the quest over again. Which totally blows.
SO, MAKE SURE YOU GOT ROOM IN INV, AND BE IN THE GUY'S HUT WHEN THE BOMB GOES OFF.

Edit 3:&nbsp well hmph!&nbsp I'm lvl 43 and cannot get Pozzik to give me this quest.&nbsp Am sure I didn't do it before with this toon.&nbsp Sigh

You go talk to Zamek - he should have a blue ? above his head, he'll say lets go! and run across to the other house, go inside, and wait for the little gnome to run out, unlock the plans, make sure you have at least one space open in your inventory, complete quest, accept next one, go back across to the other guy and turn it in. Very Easy. Continuation is going back to Badlands to get more indurium.

Zamek is just to the right of the hut behind Pozzik. He'll cross over to other part of mirage raceway and you just go into hut on that side of the raceway and wait for Rizzle Brassbolts to leave and right click on plans under his feet and bring them back to Pozzik.&nbsp Simple, quick and easy exp points (30 - 45 secos to complete).

This quest is fixed.

Please note the requirement for the quest is the last part of the Indurium quest line (News for Fizzle) as this is the plan that you must steal after help the Brassbolts brothers to obtain it in the first place from martek the Exiled in Badlands.

Yeah, that's the problem.&nbsp I didn't get to read the plans in time either before Riggle came back so now I can't proceed with the quest.&nbsp I wish there was a way around this problem.&nbsp Can't go back to talk to Pozzik or Zamek.&nbsp The plans are gone.

So now what?

I think the problem some ppl might be having is they r looking at the wrong guy.&nbsp Rizzle is in the hut just north of the explosion.

Quest is NOT bugged as of this date.&nbsp Talk to Pozzik, then Zamick (he's nearby).&nbsp Zamick will hussle over and place a bomb.&nbsp You can see Rizzle hussle out of his hut.&nbsp Run in and click on the plans (they're lying on the floor in plain view).&nbsp Accept Rizzle's Schematics quest (1650 xp).&nbsp Then take the plans back to Pozzik (1650 xp).&nbsp Easiest 3300 xp in the game.

this worked for me... i talked to the guy who ran away, then over to the gnome house... the unguarded plans were right on the ground.... kinda odd to figure out, but i did it...

All you have to do is talk to Zamek and then run over to Rizzle in the building (Zamek will run in just about the right direction of Rizzle).&nbsp And just keep trying to (open) pick up the plans.&nbsp It will say that it is unguarded.&nbsp And that is all you have to do for it to work.&nbsp

Oh and if you don't get to the plans in time, just go back to Zamek to distract again (he will have a blue ? over his head) and do it again... this time making sure to get to Rizzle in time before he comes back. :)

speak with the goblin Zamek close to the house (had a blue question mark for me) and complete the quest to get him to make a distraction. follow him across the raceway to the gnome hut, he makes a distraction which makes the gnome boss run out of his house. run in, grab the plans, done.

I'm following this level guide, and it says I have to get this quest.
However, I jumped in a little late, so i'm 45 now. But I can't get this quest.
Anyone knows why? Did the entire Goblin Sponsorship quest-chain.

If you don't accept the next quest, Rizzle's Schematics, the quest seems broken. However, you can just go into the hut and click on the schematics to start the quest again, even if the guy is standing in there.

At least that's what happened to me. Once you've "opened" the schematics, they stay open and you can get the quest to lead to the ore quest.

Cheers.
