After completing the "Series C Black Boxes" quest, you received a Daily Log ("Log Sheet of Clockwork 27c1"). Take this to Drekon Vebnebber (General Supplies) in Ak'Anon at location +875, -475 (he's on Find).
You say, 'Hail, Drekon Vebnebber' Drekon Vebnebber says 'Hello, _____. It is grand to make your acquaintance. I am the in-house merchant-slash-file clerk. I have goods to offer and I handle all the Gemchopper paperwork. Thrilling, don't you think?' Hand in the Daily Log. Drekon Vebnebber says 'Why, thank you. Hey!! This log indicates some messy business is going on at the scrapyard. Something happened to a group of gnomes. They never came out!! Go check out the scrapyard! I believe the rumors of [Red 5] are true.' Your faction standing with Gem Choppers has been adjusted by 5. Your faction standing with Merchants of AkAnon has been adjusted by 1. Your faction standing with King AkAnon has been adjusted by 1. Your faction standing with Dark Reflection has been adjusted by -1. Your faction standing with Clan Grikbar has been adjusted by -1. You gain experience!! You say, 'Who is Red 5?' Drekon Vebnebber says 'Red 5 is rumored to be a haywire clockwork. They say he pieced himself back together and lives in the scrapyard. If he IS there, you must hunt him down and take his blackbox to Manik Compolten. Be careful, if Red 5 rebuilt himself, he may have rebuilt minions as well.' From here, you need to obtain Red V's blackbox and give it to Manik. Red V is usually about level 4-6 and spawns in the southeastern-most room of the Mines of Malfunction (around location 2025, -625). The corridors leading to and the room in which Red 5 spawns are short, so only small and medium sized people can actually fight or cast in there, since you have to be standing to cast or attack. The spawn point for Red 5 alternates between "obsolete model" and "Red 5". "Red 5" is the one who drops the item you need. Note that it runs when low in health and is KOS to guards in the area, so you could get KOS'd. Red V says 'Click... Inferior being. Red 5 shall exterminate.' You have slain Red V! Red V's corpse says 'Unit will cease to function. All remaining parts of Red 5 blackbox live on. Red 5 blackbox incomplete.' Your faction standing with Defective Clockwork has been adjusted by -50. Loot the Incomplete Blackbox from its corpse. In order to fix this blackbox, you have to put four blackbox fragments inside it and hit 'combine'. Blackbox fragments drop from the obsolete models that also inhabit the mines. obsolete model says 'Click... Inferior being. Red 5 shall exterminate.' You have slain obsolete model! obsolete model's corpse says 'This unit is disabled. Red 5 fragment forfeited.' Your faction standing with Defective Clockwork has been adjusted by -1. Combine 4 Blackbox Fragment in the Incomplete Blackbox to produce a Rusted Blackbox. Hand this item in to Manik Compolten (Warrior Guildmaster). Note that this quest lowers faction with the Dark Reflection, who happen to be the NPCs in the Mines. The item received is often a piece of low level armor, but sometimes you'll get a potion or a Bull Smasher or Iony's Absorber. Upon turn-in: Manik Compolten says 'This is fabulous news!! You have done well, young one. Once you are ready for [further instruction] please let me know, I will guide you through your early most dangerous days. When you have become more experienced in our art, I wil be able to further instruct you on how to progress through your early ranks, as well as in some various [trades] you will have available to you.' Your faction standing with Gem Choppers has been adjusted by 10. Your faction standing with Merchants of Ak`Anon has been adjusted by 2. Your faction standing with King AkAnon has been adjusted by 2. Your faction standing with Dark Reflection has been adjusted by -2. Your faction standing with Clan Grikbar has been adjusted by -1. You gain experience!! You say, 'what Bull Smasher' Manik Compolten says 'The war hammer, Bull Smasher was crafted by our great blacksmiths and tinkers. It is not magical, but it is weighted to perform for only the short of stature. Certainly an item like Bull Smasher could only be crafted by gnomes.' You say, 'Who is Meldrath' Manik Compolten says 'Meldrath is the mad gnome. He used to be a member of the Eldritch Collective. Some say he lost his mind while he was working on a formula he obtained from other worlds. He used to lead the cult called the Asylum of the Mad.' You say, 'what Asylum of the Mad' Manik Compolten says 'The Asylum of the Mad was formed by the mad gnome, Meldrath. Under his direction, they were trying to build some giant mechanical titan. We recently sent all of our clockworks into the Steamfont Mountains to destroy their evil cult.' You say, 'what clockworks' Manik Compolten says 'The clockworks were developed by the Eldritch Collective. They are used as our policing force in Ak'Anon. They come in many series. The letter following their number is the series model.'

If you are a small race, even a warrior or rogue you should definately do this, to put it in perspective this weapon is better than both the dragoon's dirk and the silvery 1her 75 and 150p weapons respectively and its a fairly easy if time consuming quest. Hell this'd be a good weapon into your 20s I'd think

It's a very nice weapon. It allows a cleric to do respectable damage. Red V has a range of around 3-6. Anything below 6 is pretty easy. The lvl 6 variety is quite hard, and you'd best be at least lvl 7 or have some twinked gear. As a lvl 6 dwarven cleric in full PW, I couldn't get him down half.
Faction is of no consequence. I camped with a gnome warrior for around 10 hours or so total before getting my smasher. That 10 hours equated to about 16 boxes turned in. Bullsmasher allows you to melee mobs at a full level higher than you are, until around lvl 12 or so. Whites become downright easy. The speed at which I gained xp after smasher definitely redeemed the time lost trying to get it.
Red V/PH spawns about every 5-6 minutes. Red spawns roughly half the time (meaning you can go a half hour without seeing him, or you can hit him 3 straight times).
Armor given is now raw hide/PW. So it makes it a little more worthwhile. But getting a smasher for a small cleric is a very good investment of camp time. A pair or 3 lvl 4's could make very good use of time here, because they can kill the regular obsoletes for xp here too.
