The Only Cure is More Green Glow

Travel to Gnomeregan and bring back High Potency Radioactive Fallout. Be warned, the fallout is unstable and will collapse rather quickly.

Ozzie will also require your Heavy Leaden Collection Phial when the task is complete.

	High Potency Radioactive Fallout
	Heavy Leaden Collection Phial

Provided Item:

	Heavy Leaden Collection Phial

Description

Not only was your sample insufficient in quantity, it was also impure.

What we require is more green glow. The troggs are obviously not irradiated sufficiently to fulfill our needs. You will have to go into Gnomeregan and bring back some radioactive fallout, straight from the tap. I am speaking of the irradiated slimes, lurkers and horrors. Be warned, the containment of this type of fallout is difficult. You may need to make several attempts with the phial until a suitable sampling is recovered.

I also had to use the phial to collect green glow on a LIVE monster. Killing them, and trying it on a corpse that was giving off the green glow, always failed with a "I am out of range" error.

When I tried it on a live monster - a slime - it worked after a few tries. Just keep using it when close up to the monster and you should get it within a few tries.

Fill the phial at one of the green slimes, you have to do it while it is still alive, not dead.&nbsp Oh, and I too am having the issue where he will not allow me to return the 2nd part of the quest.

The joke is from one of the greatest skits in Saturday Night Live history, Christopher Walken playing the record producer for '70's gray-beard metal band Blue Oyster Cult, as they are recording the song, "Don't Fear The Reaper". Will Ferrell plays the member of the band whose sole purpose is to hit the cowbell, in 4/4 time. He starts playing quietly while every fifteen seconds or so, Walken charges into the studio and states how there needs to be EVEN MORE cowbell, eventually stating the funniest thing I, personally, have ever heard on television: "I've...I've got a... a fever, a fever for cowbell, and the only, the only cure... Is more cowbell." Easily one of the funniest skits in the show's history, Ferrell eventually banging on the cowbell so hard he drowns out the rest of the band, FYI, "Don't Fear The Reaper" is considered one of the finest examples of what NOT to do when recording a song, as the cowbell drowns out the guitar, singer and even the DRUMS occasionally. Go to Wal-Mart, pay five bucks (it's in the budget bin) and get the Christopher Walken SNL disc. It has this skit and shows why, as well as Alec Baldwin, he can say at any time that he wants to host, and he gets to.

The quest name is a reference to a Saturday Night Live skit where they repeat the line "The only prescription is more cowbell."

For those who didn't noticed, the Hall of Gears is a number 1 room in Atlas mod (Viscous Fallout), just right after A entrance (front) not the back one. I''ve stealth all way (level 30 rogue), jumped down, vanished and wait for refulling my hp and then I've soloed irridiated slime (gouge+first aid and used one healing potion). Then hs, so it's soloable for level30 rogue. I've filled up the bottle when slime was gouged.

Ahh, yes, and for me there was no bug (patch 1.12) you just must did https://classicdb.ch/quest=2926 before.

Has anyone figured out how to get the High Potency Radioactive Fallout? I've tried right and left clicking both living and dead slimes, lurkers and horrors with the Phial to no avail. I've killed a ton of them just hoping the fallout would drop off of one of them, but no luck there either. Help!

Just solo'd with lvl 30 paladin.&nbsp Jumped into center of large bolt from walkway just outside of entrance to clockwerk run. Healed, waited for slime to slither away, ran to horror, filled vial, divine protection, and stoned back to IF.&nbsp Only had to kill the few elites up on top of walkway on the way in, and they where easy to iso.

If you're having trouble collecting the fallout, make sure you have an empty spot in your inventory. That one confused me for a while and then made me feel dumb.
Also, it's got a shelf life of 2 hours, so turn it in as soon as you get out.

It is true. Ozzie is bugged. I had some trouble completing the first part of this quest. I contacted Blizzard and they said that they were aware of Ozzie's buginess and that they were looking into the issues. The next time I logged into game (a day or so later) i was able to finish the quest. So...(as annoying as it may be) maybe all we can do at this time is just check in with Ozzie and hope for the best. Gonna attempt to finish "more green...." tonight. Hope Ozzie is cooperative.&nbsp be well folks

You have to fill the vial from a irridated horror while you're real close to it, most likely get a high level to pull it and tank until you get it filled.

Well I thought I could take matters in my own hands. I logged in as my level 60 Horde warrior, traveled all the way there, hoping I could kill him, thus doing a "manual" reset.&nbsp Well first of all, he's tagged as "civilian" (so you would get dishonor for killing him), and second he can't even be attacked (no sword icon on hover).

So don't waste time having a Horde character travel all the way there to kill him - no worky.

I'm going to check back the next day, immediately after the daily morning server reboot.

I think they might have fixed the NPC recently.

A few points:

-I think you have to get the stuff from a living creature.

-Once you collect the radioactive fallout, I think it disappears after a certain time.&nbsp It mysteriously disappeared from my inventory, so it makes sense.

Okay - I had the same problem, where Ozzie didn't let me turn in the quest.&nbsp I had given up (after trying the logout-login thing, which didn't work), and was heading back to IF - when I decided to abandon the quest and go back to see if I could pick it back up from him, since I still had the 2 items.
When I came back to the hut, he wasn't even there.&nbsp I waited for about a minute... and he reappeared with the yellow question mark.
I picked up the quest and turned it right in to him with no problem.
I assume it's an animation problem, where he maybe doesn't reset correctly after someone turns it in.&nbsp Glad it worked though...

Big problem with asking GM for help is that the high potency radioactive fallout you collect only lasts for two hours.&nbsp If GM doesn't fix it by then and the stuff is no longer in your inventory, you are told that there's nothing they can do.&nbsp You just have to go back in and re-collect the stuff.

Big pain!&nbsp Since the reward is pretty low (for a low 30s level character), I'm thinking it's not really worth the time.

Wish I had thought to log out, but when you ask a GM for help, logging out voids it.
