Lucky Beggar Walkthrough
By: Keebo Date: September 4, 2022, 6:11 am
---------------------------------------------------------
Lucky the Beggar can be found just inside Highkeep, (the city
zone inside Highpass). If you have the druid or wizard ports to
Highkeep, you will be able to port to the top of the stairs at
the zone in. Be Aware that if you are an evil race or just have
bad faction with Highkeep, you will be attacked when you port in
unless you are invisible when you port in. There is a zone out
on both sides of you. I have helped several people with this
quest by just casting an illusion on them at this point.
[Mon Jul 25 15:12:11 2022] You say, 'Hail, Lucky the Beggar'
[Mon Jul 25 15:12:11 2022] Lucky the Beggar says 'Hello there,
traveler. You wouldn't, perhaps, be able to spare [a few
platinum] for a desperate entrepreneur, would you?'
[Mon Jul 25 15:12:14 2022] You say, 'a few platinum'
[Mon Jul 25 15:12:14 2022] Lucky the Beggar says 'With about
fifty platinum, I can double your investment, right now. I have
a few connections ready to buy [something] and a few suppliers
in exigent need of cash.'
[Mon Jul 25 15:16:44 2022] You say, 'something'
[Mon Jul 25 15:16:44 2022] Lucky the Beggar says 'I can't give
you too much information about it, as I'm under a non-disclosure
agreement, however, I will say that it is something that will
change that way that merchants connect with their customers in
the future. I understand, fully, if you are unable to [trust]
me, given my appearance, but it really takes capital to improve
one's conditions in this world.'
[Mon Jul 25 15:16:50 2022] You say, 'trust'
[Mon Jul 25 15:16:50 2022]] Lucky the Beggar says 'Will you
really? If you could hand me that fifty platinum, we could get
started straight away.'
After I gave Lucky the Beggar 50pp,
[Mon Jul 25 15:17:44 2022] Lucky the Beggar says 'Thank you!
I'll get started right now.'
[Mon Jul 25 15:17:44 2022] Lucky chants something in a foreign
tongue. With a flash of violet light, a man appears.
[Mon Jul 25 15:17:44 2022] Lucky the Beggar says 'Hello, Harold,
it's being a long time!'
[Mon Jul 25 15:17:49 2022] Lucky the Beggar says 'The gods have
smiled upon us today. We can finally complete our transaction.
The market will never be the same!'
[Mon Jul 25 15:17:49 2022] Harold Berkowits says 'I see.
Hopefully, this time your package will make it to the
manufacturer. This is my last unit. If this venture fails, our
business is done.'
[Mon Jul 25 15:17:54 2022] Lucky the Beggar says 'This time will
be different. I'll make sure of it.'
Harold depops and Lucky turns back to me and
[Mon Jul 25 15:17:59 2022] Lucky the Beggar says 'Please, take
this package to a friend of mine in Halas. His name is Leopok
Terrilon. He has a small shop near the entrance of the city.'
Lucky gave me Lucky's Mysterious Package
[attachimg=1]
This package he has just given me is also an "Illusion:
Barbarian" clickie. It should be sufficient to get you into
Halas and into the bank where you will find Leopok. He is the
merchant behind the counter inside the Halas Bank.
(SIDE NOTE: I have helped some people with this quest who have
done race changes from High Elf to Ogre and this illusion made
them "threateningly". As my enchanter, I was able to "pacify all
the mobs including Leopok allowing them to proceed with the
quest with the "Illusion: Barbarian" clickie.)
For those who are not familiar with Halas, I was able to use
"Find" to locate Leopok originally. Once I found Leopok,
[Mon Jul 25 20:06:24 2022] You say, 'Hail, Leopok Terrilon'
[Mon Jul 25 20:06:24 2022] Leopok Terrilon says 'Hello, I trust
that your day is going well.'
Once I gave Leopok the item from Lucky the Beggar,
[Mon Jul 25 16:45:46 2022] Leopok Terrilon says 'Oh, so Harold's
device has finally made its way here!' (This line is now said in
/shout)
[Mon Jul 25 16:45:46 2022] Leopok quickly opens the package.
[Mon Jul 25 16:45:46 2022] Leopok Terrilon shouts 'Damn it,
Harold!'
[Mon Jul 25 16:45:46 2022] Leopok Terrilon says 'Say, Tequilla,
you wouldn't mind making [another run] for me, would you?'
[Mon Jul 25 16:45:59 2022] You say, 'another run'
[Mon Jul 25 16:45:59 2022] Leopok Terrilon says 'My friend
Harold didn't package his [device] very well. It seems to have
been damaged during your trip to me -- not that I'm blaming you
for its current state.'
[Mon Jul 25 16:46:14 2022] You say, 'device'
[Mon Jul 25 16:46:14 2022] Leopok Terrilon says 'Just between
you and I, this device will revolutionize shopping. It allows
one to call forth a merchant on demand thanks to Harolds
magically imbued tinkering. Would you be [willing] to bring me
some supplies?'
[Mon Jul 25 16:52:02 2022] You say, 'i am willing'
[Mon Jul 25 16:52:02 2022] Leopok Terrilon says 'That's great!
Please, meet with Gluku in Grobb and exchange this item for an
extemporaneously tempered wormhole.'
[attachimg=2]
The item I just received from Leopok is a cookie which is also
an "Illusion: Dark Elf" clickie. This illusion should hopefully
be sufficient to get you into Grobb safely.
Once you get to Grobb, you can find Gluku in the very back room
in the Shadowknight guild. She shares the room with a
Shadowknight GM who will aggro if you do not have good enough
faction there.
Unfortunately, Gluku is in the floor everytime that I have been
there. While on my enchanter, I attack Gluku and use /pet back
then "pet hold" to get Gluku out of the floor. Just be careful
not to kill Gluku. I mem wipe Gluku once she is out of the
floor. On my druid, I attack with my pet and then kill my pet
once I have aggro on Gluku. I root her then log out and back in
real quick to clear aggro. I log out of sight of the SK GM in
the room then use the "Illusion: Dark Elf" clickie from Leopok
before I proceed.
[Sun Sep 04 02:13:34 2022] You say, 'Hail, Gluku'
[Sun Sep 04 02:13:34 2022] Gluku's stomach growls, loudly.
After giving Gluku "a high elf face cookie",
[Sun Sep 04 02:13:44 2022] Gluku says 'Leopok has really outdone
himself this time!'
[Sun Sep 04 02:13:44 2022] Gluku scarfs the treat in one
gluttonous bite.
[Sun Sep 04 02:13:44 2022] Gluku says 'Unfortunately, I have
only half of what Leo needs. You'll need to visit Kwein in
Kelethin to get the other piece.'
Gluku gave me "an incomplete spacial vortex generator" and a
"Guise of the Forest Elf"
[attachimg=3]
[attachimg=4]
Merchant Kwein can be found in Kelethin at the top of the pod
lift.
[Mon Jul 25 19:44:57 2022] You say, 'Hail, Merchant Kwein'
[Mon Jul 25 19:44:57 2022] Merchant Kwein says 'Gluku told me
that you were coming. Please, take this to Leopok.'
Merchant Kwein gave me the "second half of a spatial vortex
generator".
[attachimg=5]
At this point, you have the Guise of the Forest Elf to keep. It
can be used as the Illusion clickie for the rest of this quest
if one is needed.
Open "an incomplete spacial vortex generator", place the
"second half of a spatial vortex generator" inside and hit
Combine. This gives you an "extemporaneously tempered wormhole"
[Mon Jul 25 20:12:20 2022] You have fashioned the items together
to create something new: extemporaneously tempered wormhole
recipe.
[Mon Jul 25 20:12:20 2022] You have learned the recipe
extemporaneously tempered wormhole recipe!
[attachimg=6]
Now it is time to go back to Halas and see Leopok!
[Mon Jul 25 20:13:14 2022] You say, 'Hail, Leopok Terrilon'
[Mon Jul 25 20:13:14 2022] Leopok Terrilon says 'Hello, I trust
that your day is going well.'
[Mon Jul 25 20:13:25 2022] Leopok Terrilon says 'Thank you!
Please, send Lucky my regards. He should have some inventory by
the time the two of you meet, again.'
Now go back to Lucky the Beggar and
[Mon Jul 25 20:36:53 2022] You say, 'Hail, Lucky the Beggar'
[Mon Jul 25 20:36:54 2022] Lucky the Beggar says 'Here you go,
as promised, double your investment. I can reward you with
something much more valuable, if you could help me with [another
task].'
[Mon Jul 25 20:36:54 2022] You receive 100 Platinum.
[Mon Jul 25 20:36:54 2022] You gain experience!!
[Mon Jul 25 20:37:03 2022] You say, 'another task'
[Mon Jul 25 20:37:03 2022] Lucky the Beggar says 'A friend of
mine -- an old business partner -- went to run an errand for me,
much as you've just done. Unlike you, however, [she] has not
returned. If you could look for her, and report on her status,
I'd be willing to give you the very first of our [prototypes].'
[Mon Jul 25 20:54:15 2022] You say, 'prototypes'
[Mon Jul 25 20:54:15 2022] Lucky the Beggar says 'Color me
surprised! Typically, Leopok bloviates about our products before
they're released. This is largely why I'm in the situation that
am. Essentially, what you've helped us deliver (and reassemble)
is a device that allows for a customer to call forth a merchant
to do business. The merchants are busy however, so you'll have
but a short time to do your business with them, before they tire
of you and leave. As I'll only be able to lend you a prototype,
it will take a bit longer to recharge its transportative
properties. I'd offer you more, if these things weren't still in
testing as it is.'
[Mon Jul 25 20:37:27 2022] You say, 'she'
[Mon Jul 25 20:37:27 2022] Lucky the Beggar says 'Her name is
Romella. She should be in one of the camps of the North Karanas.
I've asked her to compare prices with the other merchants in the
area and to confirm some rumors that I'd heard about a monster
targeting merchants. We were thinking that, if this rumor were
to be true, there would be a market in mercenaries and in weapon
and armor supply so as to defend shops in the area. Please,
check to see that she's okay and report back to me with any of
her findings.'
Go to the North Karana gypsy camp and find Romella.
[Tue Jul 26 22:09:03 2022] You say, 'Hail, Romella'
[Tue Jul 26 22:09:03 2022] Romella says 'Are you a friend of
Lucky's?'
[Tue Jul 26 22:09:09 2022] You say, 'yes i am'
[Tue Jul 26 22:09:09 2022] Romella says 'Tell him that he was
right. People in this area need help and are willing to pay for
it, handsomely. There is [a zombie] that has some baggage with
these vendors in this encampment.'
[Tue Jul 26 22:09:13 2022] You say, 'a zombie'
[Tue Jul 26 22:09:13 2022] Romella says 'Yes, he seems to have
unfinished business in this world -- quite literally. He claims
to be owed money by most of the nearby merchants. He'll take
what's owed to him -- in blood, if he must.'
[Tue Jul 26 22:09:13 2022] You get a sudden chill down your
spine.
[Tue Jul 26 22:09:23 2022] an undead vendor shouts 'I'm running
out of patience. Romi, that'll be 2,852 platinum; Roule, 200 --
plus 1, in interest; Mrysila, I've eaten your escrow agent; and
Ezmirella.... I didn't raise you like this. What would your
mother think?!'

END OF THIS QUEST!! IF YOU DO NOT WANT THE INFO, DO NOT SCROLL
TO THE END OF THE FIGHT UNTIL AFTER YOU KILL HIM!!
THE FIGHT
[Sun Aug 28 14:36:10 2022] Tequilla says, 'Hail, an undead
vendor'
[Sun Aug 28 14:37:12 2022] an undead vendor shouts 'That will be
201 platinum, Roule. No, I'll offer no more extensions on your
payments!'
[Sun Aug 28 14:37:42 2022] an undead vendor says 'Please, take
this package to a friend of mine in Halas. His name is Leopok
Terrilon. He has a small shop near the entrance of the city.'
[Sun Aug 28 14:37:46 2022] an undead vendor has been slain.
At this point, I had three characters working through the quest.
All three were in this fight and they all received credit for
this fight.
Go back to Romella and hail her with each character that was in
the fight and ready for this fight.
[Sun Aug 28 14:53:58 2022] Keebo says, 'Hail, Romella'
[Sun Aug 28 14:53:58 2022] Romella rolls her eyes and sighs,
briefly.
[Sun Aug 28 14:53:58 2022] Romella says 'I'm both elated to see
the threat dispatched and sad to see the potential yield of
weapon sales and mercenary conscription ruined by your aide.
Please, meet Lucky in Highkeep, again. I'll let him know of your
help.'
[Sun Aug 28 14:54:22 2022] Joojoo says, 'Hail, Romella'
[Sun Aug 28 14:54:22 2022] Romella rolls her eyes and sighs,
briefly.
[Sun Aug 28 14:54:22 2022] Romella says 'I'm both elated to see
the threat dispatched and sad to see the potential yield of
weapon sales and mercenary conscription ruined by your aide.
Please, meet Lucky in Highkeep, again. I'll let him know of your
help.'
[Sun Aug 28 14:54:29 2022] You say, 'Hail, Romella'
[Sun Aug 28 14:54:29 2022] Romella rolls her eyes and sighs,
briefly.
[Sun Aug 28 14:54:29 2022] Romella says 'I'm both elated to see
the threat dispatched and sad to see the potential yield of
weapon sales and mercenary conscription ruined by your aide.
Please, meet Lucky in Highkeep, again. I'll let him know of your
help.'
Now, go back up to Highkeep and speak to Lucky the Beggar.
[Sun Aug 28 15:06:01 2022] You say, 'Hail, Lucky the Beggar'
[Sun Aug 28 15:06:02 2022] Lucky the Beggar says 'I've just
spoken with Romella. I can't thank you enough. Please, take this
as a token of my appreciation.'
[Sun Aug 28 15:06:02 2022] You gain party experience!!
You receive "a prototype vending portal". This is an
insta-clickie vendor item. Be sure not to drop the vendor in the
middle of your fighting area as it has been known to get caught
in AE damage and can cause problems.
