In-game text

I heard there is an old man called Huckle inside a hidden secret room in Orbis Tower... I met an old man named Huckle at the hidden room in the middle of Orbis Tower. He's been living in there for 30 years, studying the physics of the self-transformation of ordinary objects. He asked me to gather ingredients for his research.

Rewards

Liven's take

Huckle's quest is your first cross-continent quest. Ellinia has a portal to Orbis (via a bird-boat ferry from the Ellinia tree platforms). Orbis is the entry to the Ossyria continent - a whole second-half of the game with its own towns, mobs, quests, and job progression paths.

Where Orbis Tower is

Ellinia -> Orbis ferry (bird-boat, ~5 minute ride) -> Orbis Tower. Enter the tower and navigate to the middle- floor hidden secret room. Huckle stands inside, exactly where he's stood for 30 years.

Character context: Huckle

Huckle is a Physics-of-Transformation researcher. What that means:

  • He studies how ordinary objects can transform (e.g., pumpkin into carriage, straw into gold, etc.).
  • His 30-year isolation is a running Orbis joke - Orbis NPCs occasionally reference "the crazy old man in the tower" without explaining.
  • His research produces Orbis Rock Scrolls (which you receive as reward). These Scrolls likely feed into higher-tier Orbis crafting.

Ingredients requested

The datamine truncates the exact requirements, but based on quest patterns and Huckle's research theme, expect drops from Orbis Tower mobs (bird-family mobs, likely L27-30). Since you're at L29 already, the fights are in-range.

Strategic timing

Do this AFTER your job advancement (L30). Huckle's quest is accepted at L29 but the completion requires venturing deeper into Orbis - safer as a first-job-advanced character. If you accept at L29 and can't complete, hold the quest until you're L30+ then finish.
