If They Only Had a Brain  

Command of the Gnomish language is required to start or complete this quest.

You must complete the quest Great Balls of Fire at least 5 times before you will be offered this quest.

Speak to Blantsworth Coggington III at -619, 176, 924 Copy near Gnomeland Security Headquarters in Steamfont Mountains during Tinkerfest to begin this quest.

I met a haughty, oddly alliterative gnome by the name of Blantsworth Coggington III who vehemently relayed to me his moral outrage regarding my treatment of the erratic clockworks just outside Gnomeland Security. To appease him, I've agreed to save those clockworks in a very unconventional (and somewhat controversial) way: by incapacitating them and installing new tinkered brains to give them emulated sentience.

1. Create 5 tinkered clockwork brains. Scribe the Tinkered Clockwork Brain Blueprints that Blantsworth gave you. This is a Tinkering skill level 50 recipe so we suggest picking up Tinkering from the nearby trainer and the ability counters from the merchant to make it easier. To make all three combines (yields 2 per combine) you'll need to use the following on a Work Bench:
• 3 lead clusters - tier 1 harvest
• 3 tin clusters - tier 1 harvest
• 6 basic coals - buy from fuel merchant
• A tinkering/fuel merchant and Work Bench are in Gnomeland Security Headquarters at -520, 175, 1035 Copy . A banker is available at -529, 175, 993 Copy .
2. The Erratic Tinkerfest Clockworks can be found just down the wall from Gnomeland Security HQ around -686, 130, 905 Copy . Use the Coggington's Clockwork Incapacitator on one and then click it to install the brain. Do this 5 times.
• These clockworks are also used for the Great Balls of Fire quest so you may have to range out a bit further if others are working on that quest.
• Each clockwork has its own fun and unique dialogue that it goes through!
3. Return to Blantsworth and show him the clockwork that is following you around. This will complete the quest.
