Description

Upon further analysis of the Gnomeregan situation, it would appear as though we not only failed to eradicate the troggs but we also happened to turn most of the gnomish race into horrific, mindless, evil-doing leper gnomes.

Ozzie and I plan to reverse the horrible leper effect with our latest invention: The Recombobulator. The machine is almost complete but we are in dire need of some Restabilization Cogs and Gyromechanic Gears. Retrieve some from the leper gnomes out front of Gnomeregan for us.

Reward

You can choose one of these awards:
Driving Gloves
Oil-stained Cloak

Progress

The Recombobulator will be up and running as soon as we have sufficient Restabilization Cogs and Gyromechanic Gears.

Completion

These Gyromechanic Gears and Restabilization Cogs are in perfect accordance with Ozzie's schematics for the Recombobulation Device. Once I add some hyrdolubricant to the inner combustion pistons, adjust the crank-o-ratchet and increase of the viscosity of the electrogum gel, the gnomish race will be as good as new.

Gains

Upon completion of quests, get:

Green Gnomes located in Gnomeregan, follow the path north. Their around level 8-10 If you go inside the real Gnomeregan, their level 20+. You can't miss them.

From Brewnall Village, you'll find them just a hint North West from there. Almost due West of the lake.

The Leper Gnomes like to run, which will typically mean that they come back with a friend, so do what you can to kill them before they get too far. Also, they like to hit you with ""Decayed Strength"", which reduces your strength by 2.

For those with Cosmos, or Titan Panel and like coordinates, I started finding Leper Gnomes around 26,43 approaching from the South.

After you complete the quest, be sure to stand back and watch Razzle Sprysprocket's invention kick into action. It's pretty funny.

Every time i draft a new gnome or dwarf I do this quest and zomfg i must say without a doubt after several lvl 70s with full t6 gear it is by far the most annoying quest i have ever done in my life along side aswell any of the achindoun quests b/ the spirit healer is ALWAYS on the complete opposite end of the zone. Normally im not one to wish harm onto anyone but If by some fluke of luck the blizzard designer for these zone's sprite placement should befall a heart attack and fall to the ground in silent agony to be only a fraction of an inch out of reach of altering someone to his duress I'd probably lean in and say ""poetic justice is a beautiful thing"".

There was some question about any quests related to Gnomeregan and whether or not they count toward the Loremaster achievements. This does not require entering the instance. This quest counts toward Loremaster of Eastern Kingdoms.

Blizzard really didn't think this out all the way.

You can still get this quest as of 10/14/2010, but there are no leper gnomes in the area anymore.

Razzle is now in Kharanos just southwest of the inn. This quest does not become available until after you complete the quest ""Forced to Watch From Afar"" given by Captain Tharran who is right across the road

For a lvl 7 rogue dwarf this was a difficult quest. Every time I would start to kill one another one or two would come. I must have died like 5 times to complete this. You would think Wow would not allow the others to agro for such a low lvl quest.
