Objectives
Collect 8 Purified Metal by collecting Tainted Centurion Components from centurion units and smelting them down at the Eternal Forge.
[Purified Metal] (8)
Description
I will locate Phaestus. In the meantime, task for you!
The Forsworn use my forge to make their centurion army. Their vile intentions warp the metals we use!
Destroy their centurions, take their parts. Smelt them down in the forge to purify the metals, then return to me.
I need much metal for my plan.
Rewards
You will receive:
- 25 74
- 9,450 XP
Progress
I keep my resources here. The Forsworn stole from me! I cannot let this stand.
Completion
We shall use this metal for many purposes. For the Crest, and for my goliath!
Notes
On accept:
- Mikanikos says: I will locate Phaestus. You collect metals! No scratches, no imperfections!
Pick up the other two quests before heading out.
Kill mechanical units, not humanoids, for the metal. They drop a 
[Tainted Centurion Component] on occasion. Once enough has been gathered, head to the forge in the center of the area and use the quest items to turn them into [Purified Metal].
On return:
- Mikanikos says: And another thing! Have you seen what they have done to my forge? The surrounding stairs are covered in soot, and the flame is precisely 3.5 degrees too hot!
