HOUSEKEEPING
- ERRAND
- CULL
- THE CONCIERGE
- THE BUNKER
HOUSEKEEPING is an errand THE CONCIERGE hands out on THE BUNKER, and it wants 10 kills of VACUUM BOT.
The housekeeping units have stopped cleaning and begun patrolling, on a route the concierge did not authorise and does not recognise as a cleaning route. Ten of them off it, recorded in the nightly report as scheduled maintenance. The floors are, admittedly, no cleaner afterwards.
What it asks
| SHAPE | WHAT | HOW MANY |
|---|---|---|
| CULL | VACUUM BOT | 10 |
- ANY KILL COUNTSyours, a companion's, a powerup's — the errand is thinning them out, not proving it was you.
What it pays
Handing it in pays experience, 180 coins and 1 rolled piece.
The experience is authored as a SHARE of your own level bar — 0.55 of one — rather than as a figure, so the same errand is worth the same fraction of a level on the first map and the last. The table below is what that comes to for a hero at the level this venue is tuned for; take it later and it pays more.
The rolled piece goes through the ordinary drop pipeline at your own level, with 1 tier of skew on the rarity roll — the same skew the merchant's stall takes. A quest is a second CALLER of the loot system, never a second loot system, so what it hands over is the same kind of thing a monster drops.
| WHAT | HOW MUCH |
|---|---|
| COINS | 180 |
| ROLLED LOOT | 1 (+1 tier skew) |
| DIFFICULTY | HERO LEVEL | XP |
|---|---|---|
| EASY | 28 | 19924 |
| MEDIUM | 28 | 19924 |
| HARD | 31 | 29321 |
| NIGHTMARE | 55 | 1407005 |
The chain
Opens THE GUEST LIST.
A chain never crosses a map or a run: the quest log belongs to the run you are in rather than to the hero, so every link of one is taken, done and handed in on a single visit, from the same person.
What is said
The errand in the giver's own words, covered until you ask for it.
The ask
THE CONCIERGETHE UNITS HAVE STOPPED CLEANING AND BEGUN PATROLLING. I DID NOT AUTHORISE THIS.
THE CONCIERGETEN, SIR. I WILL RECORD IT AS SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE.
Coming back short
THE CONCIERGETHEY ARE STILL PATROLLING. IT IS NOT A CLEANING ROUTE.
The handover
THE CONCIERGEMAINTENANCE COMPLETE. THE FLOORS ARE, ADMITTEDLY, NO CLEANER.
THE CONCIERGETHE LOST PROPERTY CUPBOARD HAS NOT BEEN CLAIMED IN FOUR YEARS.
