Tergon Brenclog is at location 1076, -1032.

You say, 'Hail, Tergon Brenclog'

Tergon Brenclog says 'Eh!? What do I see before me? A young upstart? Some child pretending to be a great mind? If you wish to test your mettle, you will assist Tergon. Will you [help Tergon] or are you far [too superior] to deal with such things?'

You say, 'I am far too superior.'

Tergon Brenclog says 'Well, excuse me, your majesty. Please forgive my arrogance. Now get out of here, before you stink this place up with that rotting grape you call a brain!'

You say, 'I will help Tergon.'

Tergon Brenclog says 'No! You will help yourself. Your task shall find your skills tested. Succeed, and knowledge is yours. Fail, and death shall embrace you. Go to the Steamfont Mountains and seek out a troll named Bugglegupp. As a youngster, I once tried to attack the beast with a device of mine. It sent an iron pellet deep into the beast's head. Kill Bugglegupp and return the iron pellet. I hope the pellet does not get lost in the battle.'

You have slain Bugglegupp!
Bugglegupp's corpse says 'My Crakneks will make you bleed...'

[Sun Dec 18 18:30:51 2022] Tergon Brenclog says, 'There is much more you must do for the Library of Mechanimagica before such things can be revealed to you. Perhaps fetching minotaur horns and returning them to Professor Theardor will earn you membership to the Library of Mechanimagica.'

No, she is not rare, she's actually fairly common to see. If you ever play a young gnome hunting kobolds in steamfont you will meet her for sure. It is generally while you are trying to med that she will sneak up behind you and begin pounding on you =)

Spawn path
# Dec 16 2003 at 9:03 PM Rating: Decent
I have seen Bubblegup 3 times over my 4 1/2 years of EQ, granting that I have only levelled a few chars in Steamfont. DID see her drop from the sky very close to Druid ring and proceed roughly in a straight line to just past the zone tunnel to LFay. Twice she has jumped me unawares while camping the first Kobold camp (The original one prior to their proliferation to feed the newbie armor quests) She is a rogue I have only seen her walking toward the LFay zone area, guessing she poofs somewhere around there.
Easy

Killin grikbar kobolds for quick cash. when she spawned and attcked me I killed her in 3 hits with my 22 pally. Brought me down 3%
too easy. Of course I'm not a mage so I left the pellet rot.
kill kobolds to get her to spawn
# May 30 2003 at 5:04 AM Rating: Default
killing grikbar kobolds makes her spawn.
RE: kill kobolds to get her to spawn
# Feb 03 2004 at 3:25 PM Rating: Decent
I have killed thousands of the kobolds over the year or so since they added them for the newbie armor quest and I know for a fact that they have nothing to do witht he spawning of Bugglegupp. Besides Bugglegupp has been in steamfont far longer than the kobolds have been called "grikbar kobolds"

I've also killed bugglegupp a couple hundred times in the last 5 years and many times no one is killing the kobolds at all.
#REDACTED, Posted: Mar 02 2003 at 11:12 PM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) I did this quest and got a lvl 60 pet scroll...guess i got lucky...was really easy
lvl 4 spell
# Jan 30 2003 at 7:02 PM Rating: Decent
At lvl 2 a kind person called Tiff let me loot the pellet. I handed it in and recieved about 2 blue exp, which took me to lvl 3 and got lvl 4 water pet spell.
Quest aftermath
# Jan 01 2003 at 5:57 PM Rating: Decent
I looted this iron pellet, and turned it in to complete the quest. I received the level 8 water pet spell, as well as some decent exp at level 9.

The weird thing was that after handing in the pellet, I saw the message "The citizens begin to panic as the thunderous sounds of flapping wings begin to flood the fields near the entrance of the city."

I thought maybe I had triggered the spawn of some other mob, so I quickly gated back out to the newbie bind spot, just outside of Ak'anon. Everything seemed normal.

Does anyone have any info on what this message means? I am not sure if it is even connected with the iron pellet quest, or if the timing was just coincidental.. I will be looking for Bugglegupp again, to see if I receive the same message each time.

I too have received this message after turning in the pellet, but what it is referring to is still unclear to me.

killed my gnome, so I got my alt char a wiz to zap her with lightning lvl12 spell. root n nuke worked good but my poor gnome didn't have a chance to see her coming. Usually runs around newbie zone until a higher level shows up to zap her green revolting bag o skin.

I killed her for fun and revenge... she is hateful and likes the taste of Newb meat. Her demise is fitting.

#REDACTED, Posted: Oct 24 2001 at 12:32 AM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) i saw this ugly thing at the lfay zone and decided to whipe her out. 1 nuke and bye bye. i guess since im a 44 druid i should have left her alone, but she was so damn ugly. let some newbi loot it. p. s. she still not as ugly as those smelly gnomes.
Her level

Id say she ranges from 8-12 ?? When I was 7 she conned yellow at one point. Shes a shaman, shes a real *****. I have no idea if killing kobalds SPAWNS her, but if you beat on that camp on the zone wall, shes more then happy to show up and slaughter you. Probably another lame thing where you need to be at LEAST 10 to really clean her clock and she drops stuff for a lvl 8 or below... ugh. Im an enchanter, a low lvl enchanter has trouble with whites often even, and it looks like mostly a mage thing.

way easy

i hadn't even heard of her before i entered SF, i took her out in no time and even with her poison i lost just a bub of hp. the reward was mediocre but since it wasn't much of a fight i guess the reward was appropriate.

my 23 warrior was here recently and saw the troll, it conned blue to me. I attacked it and even though i killed it (quite fast) its poison almost killed me. I was unconsious

# Aug 16 2001 at 2:44 AM Rating: Default
Its funny, It'd beat the crap outta me as a newbie so very often...and now that i seek my revenge i never see the spawn...does anyone have the spawn loc or area?
RE: Irony...
# Oct 19 2001 at 11:00 AM Rating: Default
She spawned close to the path that leads into Steamfont from LF. She attack me before the first fork, just before the ravine.
Spawn Rate????
# Aug 12 2001 at 8:48 AM Rating: Default
Does anyone know her spawn rate? I was camping her yesterday and it seems to be hours between spawns. I am hoping this is not the case. Or does she spawn when you ask Tergon about her?
RE: Spawn Rate????
# Apr 23 2002 at 2:39 PM Rating: Default
she spawns every hour at the :50's like 1:50 2:50 etc. (EST)
