Wizardry 8 Hints
3. Steal the Mook's device
1 of 9: The Mook are located in Arnika. You can find their headquarters by looking for a green glowing alcove near the crashed spaceship.
2 of 9: Speak with the Mook hologram, then give it the letter to gain access to their headquarters.
3 of 9: Inside, speak with Screg, and he will allow you to inspect the device. The device is inside the room to the east.
4 of 9: Should you try to pick up the device, a wall panel will slide open, revealing several heavily armed Mook. They will attack you if you attempt to leave with the device. You will have to either fight them for it, or find a way to trick them.
5 of 9: The device is a large pink orb. Check your inventory -- you may have a similarly shaped item which can be swapped for the device.
6 of 9: The item you need can be found in the Swamp, in the possession of the Dark Savant. If you have not already met the Savant there, do a little exploring in the Swamp.
7 of 9: To locate the Dark Savant, enter the Swamp from Trynton, the follow the road south until you see a sign stuck in the mud just off the path. Circle around the sign until the Savant appears. When he leaves, he will drop an item, the Fake Astral Dominae. This is the item you need.
8 of 9: Pick up the device and place it in your inventory, then, without moving your party, place the Fake Astral Dominae in its place. The Mook will not be able to tell the difference between the two, and will allow you to leave their headquarters with the device (which turns out to be the Chaos Moliri, one of the 3 artifacts needed for Ascension) stashed in your inventory.
9 of 9: Note: if you are in a hurry to complete the quest, and have already obtained the *real* Astral Dominae, you can use that to fool the Mook instead. Just remember to come back later to retrieve it.
