Welcome to NGB and our Sand Land guide for the AWOL Tinkerer quest. In this guide, we’ll cover everything you need to know about the AWOL Tinkerer quest.

How to Start the AWOL Tinkerer Quest

To start the quest, you’ll need to complete several side quests to grow Spino in addition to progressing the main story to the Aquanium Recovery main quest. Once you’ve done that, travel to the Workshop in Spino and talk with Stan behind the counter. He’ll tell Belz that he’s manning the store while Ves visits Merrick Junker’s Market to stock up on materials. Since he needs to get back to his shop, Stan we’ll request that we go bring Ves back.

We chose to send Ves to Spino over Stan. If you chose Stan, then this quest will probably be slightly different.

Set out for Junker Market: Merrick which can be found in the northeastern corner of Sand Land in the Chapa Region under the Merrick Battleship. Once you arrive, enter the market, for some dialog amongst the group.

Speak to the Peddler

Follow the street in the market north and speak with the Peddler standing next to the blue raptor. He’ll say that he might have seen Ves and that she mentioned going to the big scrapyard to the north. Time to head out once more!

Find Ves and Talk to Her
