TWO TANKS is an errand BENNY KOVACS hands out on THE MOON, and it wants 4 SPARE AIR BOTTLEs brought back.
The garrison units are carrying air bottles taken off a wreck that was not theirs. Four back is what a salvage hand will not walk the far grid without — he carries two because once he did not — and he is going out there looking for people rather than for salvage.
What it asks
| SHAPE | WHAT | HOW MANY |
|---|---|---|
| FETCH | 4 |
| PIECE | CARRIED BY | PER KILL |

| SPARE AIR BOTTLE | SUCCESSOR | 34% |
- SPARE AIR BOTTLE2 pieces of it are already lying on the floor, found rather than fought for. A long dry run off the horde is not a dead end: after 6 kills of a carrier with nothing to show for it, the next one drops for certain.
- ONLY WHILE IT IS LIVEthe pieces exist for the errand and nothing else — they drop once it has been accepted and the tally is still short, and they are handed over at the turn-in.
What it pays
Handing it in pays experience, 90 coins and 1 rolled piece.
The experience is authored as a SHARE of your own level bar — 0.4 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 |

The chain
Opens THE LITTLE ONE.
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.
