kerran tseq says 'Gnome toy! You bring. You good person.'

Nilt's Contraption

THe contraption is also part of a quest with the gnome Nilt in steamfont zone. Don't know what the end result is because I was 15 Bard when I ran accross the Contraption. Conned Yellow. was at half hp at the time and decided to kite it to the guards just to be safe. Have a feeling if you turn it's drop item into the Gnome he'll give you a reward of some type. Talking to him may also be a spawn trigger.
Hope I didn't blow it for someone else
# Dec 02 2002 at 7:27 PM Rating: Decent
Last night while assisting a ranger on the Trueshot bow quest, I ran across Nilit's Clockwork. I was just happy to see something that was worth killing (Yellow CON)! Got the drop and looked it up here. This was after 3 long RL days of play and the only time I've seen Nilit's Clockwork. So if you do indeed have to talk to the Kerra Tseqs to get this thing to spawn, I hope I didn't blow it for some other poor soul on the Zeb server. I will complete the quest tonight and initiate with the Kerra Tseqs again to respawn the thing. I'll test the spawn theory of talking to Kerra Tseqs and port back to see what I find. If it works, least I have something to gain exp from while helping this ranger. I'll update after I try it out.

These are slow days in Steamfont for a level 19 Druid. Everything is too easy or too hard in the zone. Nilit's clockwork on the other hand was pretty easy to solo.

I killed it 3 times
I wass killing every thing then I seen that it did not die in one hit and It was up. no faction hits. then turned around killed 2 other bobs and it was back up in less then 1 min, the 3rd time I killed it was about 3 hours later, still killing every thing. so it is just a random spawn I think.

Ported to Tox Forest and turned the doll in to get the toy. Asked about the toy before and after, ported back into Steamfont, no dice on Nilit's Clockwork spawning. Don't know what makes it spawn.

This is for all the people posting that they are going to get the Kerran toy and start a monk to twink with it or give it away to somebody. Its NO DROP which means whoever gets the gnomish toy off the clockwork corpse has to complete the quest and cannot give away the end result.

So unless you want the item for yourself you should not kill, loot, and quest this. Of course its a free Norrath and you can do whatever you want, but if your going to end up never using it or destroying it, theres little point.

I was collecting microservos in steamfront for about 2 hours, there were others killing the elementals and everything else around. I went to shoot it and noticed it didnt target as a rouge clockwork, i left it alone, wasnt sure if it would be a faction hit. about 10 minutes later it aggrod on me while i was looting, It conned lt blue to me at lvl 30. its startled me because the only thing in steamfront that had aggro'd me before was the missionary. ( i killed him once, he got me 2 times ). when i he was dead i still had 3 bubs left, looted the toy not knowing what it was, and came here to look it up. i think i'll do the quest, i have been thinking about starting a monk. thanks for all the great posts

ps. i got 14 microservos in that 2 hours.
pss. i finally made my 1st trueshot, fleetching skill at 144, 9 failed attempts

I camped this non stop for 12 hrs with my ranger so i could loot it with my monk. Then my corpse rotted. I went back again when i started my monk again, and the clockwork spawned in 10 mins. It spawns at 11:00 (direction) facing away from ent to mino caves. about where i always see the kibold missionary.
Gnomes, or Kobolds
# Nov 05 2001 at 8:02 PM Rating: Default
If you listen to what the kerran kid says, it's that a kobold stole it's toy. Has anyone tried finding it on a kobold instead of going going all the way across the world?

"Wolf Elemental"????
# Oct 28 2001 at 4:12 AM Rating: Default
A druid friend (lvl 52) was PLing my new shadowknight tonight when he came acrocc Nilit. He hailed him and got a very strange response... He was in wolf form and Nilit replied with something like "Don't talk to me you silly Wolf Elemental! I don't want to get any Wolf Elemental germs!..." He conned amiably too. A little while later, after a few hours of PLing, my then lvl 8 SK killed the contraption with nearly no difficulty. (Of course, nice 52 druid buffs played a HUGE part in that! ;) ) He dropped the toy right away ad we had no clue what it was about till we just looked it up.

I'm assuming he always drops it and I don't thing there actualy is a real trigger for it.
Yay for me

I was in Steamfont this morning at about 7am CST, killing clockworks for microservos, the hero for his bracer, and everything else for fun. When what do I see but this little guy? Very easy kill for a 45 paladin, not much tougher than a normal clockwork(Didnt hit me for more than 20hp total) and not a bad rangeslot item. Ac and Agi are always good.

was plvling a friend in SF today and mistakenly pulled Nilits Contraption, thinking it was a clockwork. Well, it bites, and even though it was green to a 31, I sure as hell wasn't ready for it, and it almost got me, hehehe. Funny part was I still got exp, so I'm kinda surprised a lvl 13 can pull this quest off. Anyway, not really impressed with the results, but Ill end up giving the Kerran Toy away anyway. if anyones looking for a freebie, send a tell on VZ =)

If it has a range listed on it, as in Range: 40, then you can end up throwing it. If it is just listed as going in the range slot, without having a value for the range, then clicking your ranged attack will do nothing. Daggers, hammers and spears frequently have a range, so they can be equiped there, but be careful -- I threw a titan bless tachi away once upon a time.

(with the exception that a bow has a range but doesn't get thrown at your enemy :)

The runed bone fork just had the range value removed from it, which is nice. It now just sits in your range slot like an idol. I hope verant picks this up for more items.

First of all, you are correct. Once you throw a non-stackable item, it's gone for good. So don't do it!

The range slot is used for bows (if your class can use them), stackable thrown weapons, or other items (such as this, Dragoon Dirk, etc.) that carry stat boosts. Just stick the item in the Range Slot, and GET RID OF your Ranged Weapon hotkey.

Hope this helps you. When I was young, I threw my Aulde Ball Peen Hammer.

You used to be able to get him to spawn just by asking Nilit "what contraption?". Someone decided to PL their n00b/alt on it, and Verant promptly "fixed" (nerfed) this "abuse" (tactic). I believe the same phrase will get it to spawn, but not for a half hour or so, and a limited number of times per day.

big deal?
# Jun 10 2001 at 4:38 AM Rating: Default
I don't understand what the big deal about this item is?

3 ac, 2 agi/range. Not all that exciting compared to other velious range slot items.

I have killed the contraption and have gotten a gnome tinkered toy, but is it worth tramping all the way out to Kerra Island for?

RE: big deal?
# Jun 15 2001 at 1:36 AM Rating: Default
It's a perfect item for monks Lutinna. The weight is only 0.1 and the AC and Agi (2 prime Monk stats) are great for something that doesnt take up any space or weight. The other item for a monk's ranged slot would be a Kelzendian Crystal which drops in Crystal Caverns. This weighs 0.0 and gives +10 HP, but I would rather have the Kerran toy. It's not like we can deal out massive damage with shurikens and throwing knives anyway, and if you still have your heart set on using them to pull you can just pop them into your ranged slot when you pull and drop in the toy when you fight. Well now that I know how, I'm going to go get one for myself ^_^

Was hanging out wacking clockworks for Trueshot quest..waiting for mino cave to open and what comes up on track..Milts Contraption. I didn't even know what it was..but conned blue to my 22 Ranger... Someone posted that it is as tough as Hero...whaaaaat. Took about all of 30 seconds to down it and only lost about 1 bub. Not too tough at all.

# Mar 28 2001 at 9:46 PM Rating: Default
I asked a guildmate of mine to hail the Kerran Tesqs and to follow the conversation thread about the toy. Meanwhile, I waited near the mino mines in Steamfont. After having the neccessary conversation, I began looking for Nilit's Contraption or Nilit's Clockwork. Killed several of each type of monster in the area. After 10 minutes or so, went to Nilit himself, Hailed him, asked "What Creation?" then resumed my search.
An hour passed, to no avail. Perhaps the spawn is timed, not triggered?

Recently, I've taken up Tinkering (quite expensive, but very fun!), and I'm always tempted to go harrass Minos and Meldrath. So, I close up my toolbox and head over to the cave for a little cow-man killing. After DMF'ing and buffing the lower lvls experience hunting in the area, I send my 49 pet on a killing spree on anything moving. I've seen Nilit's Contraption 4 times, and killed it 3 times. A 51 Monk got the other (YAY!). I doubt anyone was talking to the kitties all the way in Kerra Isle, or talking to Nilit either. The machine is quite tough, probably as many HP's as a Mino Lord. It takes about as long for my 49 pet to kill, so I doubt many un-grouped, un-twinked players below 20 will succeed. I'm wondering if Meldrath is somehow connected. Every time I've seen the Contraption, it's been AFTER I've killed Meldrath.....
I know he's scarry, but hey, he's also a little bitch, so please kill him =oD

Luck
# Feb 28 2001 at 3:30 PM Rating: Default
I believe that the spawning of this and many other nasty critters is all based on a hidden faction, that being the faction of LUCK. Mine is definately low. So far (while murdering several thousand inoccent greenies) I have completed the Hero Bracer quest 4 times and helped a young SK complete it too....No #$%^&@ing Spawn. Hurray for me on my luck with the Mino Hero, BUT - I didn't need HBs I just wanted the Kerran Toy!
I'm positive that your faction standing with LUCK has everything to do with this and many other spawns...

I hope you have better luck than I

Okay, after finding out about the item, I decided to give this quest a try, since I have a 12 monk right now and could get a guild member to help me out on the quest, and she was level 25. We didn't go to Kerra Island, but straight to the mino cave entrance. We talked to Nilit multiple times, killed a lot of rogue contraptions. Ran from the Lord and I got killed by the Hero. Oh yeah, we got away from the Lord because we ran before he saw us. The hero got me 'cuz I got stunned with every hit. So I don't know 'bout the SoW can/can't outrun thing. My guess is that the contraption is a forced spawn, requiring you to talk to the Kerra Tseqs to activate the spawn. Those of you that didn't do that and came across the contraption anyways might've just had good timing. Someone talked to the Kerra Tseqs on the other half of the world and that forced the thing to spawn while you were there. As it is, I am going to go all the way to Kerra Island and talk to the Kerra Tseqs, then get a port back to GFay or something to get the thing as soon as I can. I'll reply to this post if that works.
RE: Confused
# Mar 24 2001 at 9:50 AM Rating: Default
I kid you not. After camping this thing for 3 hours with my monk, I read this and tried giving the starting quest mob a try in kerra. Log off my monk and log on my druid and head to kerra, hailed the quest mob and as about what toy. Then log off and log on my monk. What do i see? Nilit's Contraption! Looks like it may very well be triggered or it was just luck. Either way, happy I got the friggin thing. Killing low greenies for 3 hours is a real pain.
THIS is the real way to do it
# Feb 10 2001 at 9:29 PM Rating: Default
OK, today I tried making the Nilit's Contraption spawn by killing EVERYTHING over and over near the Minotaur caves. This did not work and in 2 hours, I did not see him. However, I ran to Nilit and talked to him about the contraption (hail him to start the conversation), and ran back to it's spawn area and sure enough, there it was. I killed it with my level 22 Monk (who is a little twinked), with 2 bubbles of health leftover (without mend). Get the toy and take it to the Kerran Tseq kitties near the beach behind a little fence. And viola, you have yourself an awesome Monk range slot item.
No, it isn't
# Feb 12 2001 at 5:28 AM Rating: Default
I tried this, didn't work. Waited 2 hours and killed the Hero. Killed everything in sight for another 2 hours. Talked to Nilit again. He begged me to kill his creation (again) because it was running loose but no contraption spawned at all and I have tracking so I'd see all the new spawns.

Somebody suggested that Nilit's clockwork spawns when somebody talked to the Kerran kittens but without being able to teleport I can't confirm or deny this since it's a zillion miles away.

Actually, it is placed in the range slot. So if you don't normally have something there, such as if you are a cleric or druid (or someone else who doesn't fire a bow), its a nice little add to your statistic.
Nilit's Contramption Spawn Time
# Jan 28 2001 at 6:44 AM Rating: Good
To my opinion and maybe it's a fact, Nilit's Contraption is spawned at night around 8PM and up. I camped there all day and didn't see it anywhere, but at night, it spawned at 1130.65, -1443.11, -108.16.

I decided to try this quest after reading up on it here. Went to Steamfont, and found Nillit's contraption between the windmills and the minotaur caves. How you can say the minimum level for this quest is 13 is beyond me, the contraption conned red to me at 17. Needless to say, I did not do the quest.

As I chanced upon Nilt's contraption by pure chance in Steamfront, I had to take the gnome toy back...

Here's the spoilers, The Kerran Tseq's are at 220, n145 near the dock area in Kerra Ridge. For you trackers (like me) they do not show up on tracking.

The Kerran toy you get is AC3, +2 agi, and fits in the range slot. I have a screen shot I will attempt to get to alakhazam as soon as possible.

Ack. I read about this quest one sleep derived night and cannot remember the details. The Clockwork supposedly spawns about 5 min after you have a conversation with its creator in akanon I think. Thats all I can remember...maybe something about docks?? $@#*!!...I need to do this quest. If anyone finds out the missing info please come and reply to this post.

I hear that one needs to say a certain phrase to Nilit to get the clockwork to spawn. I still have not been able to verify anything. I will reply when I find out more, which should be soon.

I was wandering by the mino caves hoping to get a glimpse of the Hero when this Nilit's thing attacked me. Killed it, got the toy. Then 5 minutes later there it was again on tracking! Some newbie got it, I think. 15 minutes later a level 52 monk came looking for it. He was still there when I came back to check on the Hero again 8 hours later...

Afraid it isn't broken at least getting the Gnomish Toy from the Nilit Contraption. I haven't finished it in Kerra though. I went to the area outside the Mino Caves and cleared absolutely everything including skeletons, rogue clockworks, harpies, elementals, and drakes. I kept that up and was about to quit from boredom when it spawned near the Mino Cave mouth. Took me about 2 to 3 hours I think. Good Luck.
Not bad item
# Aug 30 2000 at 2:32 PM Rating: Default
I'm a dwarf paladin, and since I only rarely use bows, and then only to pull, this is a nice addition to my equipment.

My theory is to fill every available position with as much bonus as possible. I haven't see any other ranged items that I can use like this, so every time I'm not using my bow, this doll is sitting in the ranged spot.
RE: Not bad item

# Aug 17 2000 at 6:21 PM Rating: Decent
I went to steamfont and killed clockworks till it spawned. Probably 2-3 hours of it, quite boring except when mino lord aggroed me. Fortunately he's not as fast as SOW and I merely asked where the high levels went that were hunting him and led him to the slaughter.

I was level 25 and managed to take down nihlits despite being at 3 1/2 bubs of mana when it spawned and while fighting another clockwork. Root, dot, med. I think this item is worth it for my druid as I don't have anything else to put in ranged slot. Melee class? Forget it.
don't forget that melee
# Dec 26 2000 at 8:09 PM Rating: Default
Melee classes this really is good if you don't have something better is the ranged slot. If you are not pulling with a bow, have something in that slot. This "TOY" is 3ac +2agi.. which makes you just a little harder for you hit, and when you are you take less damage, per the higher AC, and the 2agi may give you another 1pt. of ac that is 4ac, and if you are like my warrior, 4ac will actually give you like 5 or 6ac. You may just get the bonus of the true AC making it 3ac+1= 4ac plus the 1point from the agility for a total of 5ac or it could be 3ac+2ac=5ac +1 from agility to equal 6ac. It may change depending on if your agi seems to be "max'd". At some point the ac bonus seems to stop, or the amount of agi bonus to change into a point of ac greatly increase. Any tank want to share what you get of this thing? Being a Tank in the truest sense, AC is the ultimate stat. And every little point counts. If I had a Thorned Idol, sure this would suck. The question should be not if but when a melee class should get this, or something in the ranged slot. I will put this in the ranged slot and that Velious ..Gem of rage in the ammo slot.
When I quest for my Hero Bracer I will definitely keep an eye out for this Clockwork.
Like the monk said this blows the split paw eye up. What is that 2sv vs. poison?, I will take a little AC flavored ice cream, even if it is only a single cone this time. AC, HP, and STR. I solo'd into levels that warriors are "supposed" to this way. Don't listen to a caster for advise on how to tank,(unless of course he is your enchanter, or really nows what he is talking about.

Melee class? hell yes!

I'm a 40 monk. I don't use shurikens to pull, as they're too heavy and run out too fast. I'll use them in planes, but not on frogs and kobolds.

I currently have a Preserved Splitpaw Eye in range slot. This blows my eye out of the water.

I found the contraption while hunting Frebin Tinderhue, a gnome in the area. I just walked over after every battle to check and see if it spawned, and the second time I checked, I found it. So indeed, the quest is not broken. If your in the low 30's, you may want to pass the time hunting Mino's, but my advice is to not kill ANY clockworks, as last time I did that I got nowhere.

After camping the contraption for over 35 hours (in sessions over 8 hours) ... I have had only I report of him (I missed him by 2 hours).

And that was killing everything that moved outside the mino caves.

True, yesterday (2-6-01) arround 11:00 PM a friend and I were getting some exp across the hills close to the mills in st, when Nilit's contraption appeared and started killing everything around it. What was worse is that it is a clockwork so the guy that kills the mobs outside the mills did not do anything even when I went inside the mill and as a result died and lost 1 ora bub of exp. Also the rogues spiders joined in the chase. If you see it fade or gate out of there. wiz lvl 11 thanks to that thing.
