It seems that Raynor Vanos used the Dwarven power core I acquired for him in Zthenganaz to rebuild and modify a Dwarven Sphere. The construct went crazy and knocked out Kireth, and when she woke up both it and her brother were missing.
Quick Walkthrough[edit]
- Talk to Kireth Vanos.
- Use the lightning prod near the wreckage.
- Follow the image of the Dwarven sphere.
- Talk to Raynor Vanos.
- Use the lightning prod again.
- Follow the image of the Dwarven sphere.
- Use the lightning prod on the Overcharged Dwarven Sphere.
- Talk to Kireth.
- Use the lightning prod and track down the runaway sphere.
- Defeat the Reachmen.
- Follow the sphere one last time.
- Choose who to side with.
- Talk to Kireth.
Detailed Walkthrough[edit]
Notes[edit]
- While Raynor mentions to you to not damage the dwarven sphere, since the sphere itself isn't hostile when reaching the camp, it cannot be attacked anyway.
- At the Winterborn camp, a hint appears to again drain energy from the sphere. However, simply killing the raiders banging on the sphere will make it wake up and leave, completing this step.
Bugs[edit]
- Your character uses the dual-wield weapons stow animation when using the rod, even when not dual-wielding weapons. ?
- Unlike when the uses when tracking the sphere, your character uses their hand to siphon the energy from the sphere rather than the rod. ?
- The quest reward, Tinker's Staff of Trouble, is also listed in the Slottable Items in your inventory when it is an equippable weapon-only. When assigned to your quickslot, selecting it does nothing. ?

I should talk to Kireth and find out more about the construct that Raynor tinkered with.
Objective: Talk to Kireth Vanos

The nearby wreckage appears to be the result of Raynor's latest experiment—a reactivated Dwarven sphere. If I use the lightning prod that Kireth gave me, I might be able to track the sphere by its energy discharges.

The lightning prod revealed after-images of the sphere and showed me which direction it headed in. I should follow the trail and see if it leads me to Raynor.

Just as I drove off the runaway sphere, Kireth and Raynor arrived. I think Kireth wants to talk to me. I should speak with her.

|
After defeating the Reachmen, the Dwarven sphere took off again. I should follow it.
Objective: Follow the Overcharged Dwarven Sphere

Now that the Dwarven sphere has stopped rolling around, I should talk to Kireth and Raynor. Kireth wants to destroy it, but Raynor wants to repair it. I should see what they both have to say before we decide what to do with the construct.
Complete one: Talk to Raynor Vanos or Talk to Kireth Vanos

I agreed with Raynor and let him fix the Dwarven sphere. It look like he fixed it all right, but then it rolled off into the wilderness and Raynor went after it. I should talk to Kireth and see what she wants to do now.
Objective: Talk to Kireth Vanos
|
|
I agreed with Kireth that the Dwarven sphere needed to be destroyed. I should talk to her to make sure the task was accomplished.

- Not all Journal Entries may appear in your journal; which entries appear and which entries do not depends on the manner in which the quest is done.
- Stages are not always in order of progress. This is usually the case with quests that have multiple possible outcomes or quests where certain tasks may be done in any order. Some stages may therefore repeat objectives seen in other stages.
