Find Initiate Favar and complete his analysis. Zone: The Clockwork City Quest Giver: Novice Holli Location(s): Slag Town The Shadow Cleft Reward: Crow-Touched Clockwork Coffer Very High Leveled Gold XP Gain: Very High XP ID: 6080 Repeatable: Daily

A Clockwork Apostle entered the Shadow Cleft and hasn't returned. What's worse, he forgot to take his perception tabulator with him.

Quick Walkthrough

1. Speak to Adjunct Daro for information about Novice Oscard (optional).
2. Use the Perception Tabulator to scan three locations in the Shadow Cleft.
3. Find Initiate Favar.
4. Return to Adjunct Daro.

Detailed Walkthrough

Novice Holli can be found near the wayshrine Brass Fortress. When speaking to her, she says:

Novice Holli: Adjunct Daro sent Initiate Favar into the Shadow Cleft to perform a thorough analysis with his perception tabulator. He had some sort of malfunction, though, and left the device behind. Worse, he failed to return at the appointed time.

Player: So what do you need me to do?

Novice Holli: Take this perception tabulator, return to the Shadow Cleft, and perform Favar's analysis. And while you're in there, try to find our poor initiate. If you require additional details, talk to Adjunct Daro. You can find him in the Grand Depository.

Player:I'll use the perception tabulator and try to find Initiate Favar.

You should then proceed to the Shadow Cleft. Use the perception tabulator at three locations:

• The gate
• The cottage
• The ruin

To locate Initiate Favar, walk down the river or the path alongside it, past the waterfall and skyshard. You will find his body in the last cavern.

After finding Initiate Favar, you should return to Adjunct Daro in the Brass Fortress.

Bugs

• When attempting to find Initiate Favar, his body can sometimes be inside the rock ceiling of the cavern, instead of on the ground where it's supposed to be. However, if you get directly below the quest marker and look up, you can still examine his body and obtain the quest item to complete the objective.

Notes

* Any text displayed in angle brackets (e.g., <Alias=LocationHold>) is dynamically set by the game and will be filled in with the appropriate word(s) when seen in game.

• 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.
