Dive into the new adventure presented by the Crownfall update in Dota 2's Markets of Midgate without needing to purchase the Midgate Pathfinder pack. While two optional side quests are initially locked behind the paywall, fear not! We've got you covered with a recap of The Missing Smith side quest, ensuring you don't miss out on the action.
The Missing Smith Side Quest is a relatively short escapade, spanning just six chapters compared to Meepo's ten-chapter saga, Divided We Fall. Let's delve into all the dialogue from The Missing Smith Side Quest to unravel its tale.
All Dialogue from Riki's Crownfall Missing Smith Side Quest:
Chapter 1:
As Dragonous, Scree'Auk, and Shendelzare navigate the streets, they take a wrong turn, finding themselves lost. Shen senses an eerie feeling of being watched, although uncertain of its source.
Chapter 2:
Shen alerts Dragonous to the sensation of being watched, prompting them to employ the ever-dreaded Dust of Appearance, revealing none other than Riki, the invisible trickster, who has been shadowing them.
Chapter 3:
The trio confronts Riki, questioning his motives for following them. However, Riki clarifies that he's on a personal quest in search of his lost dagger.
Chapter 4:
Riki reveals his plight—he commissioned the renowned blacksmith, Shifty Busko, to craft him a new dagger, but the smith has vanished. This predicament frustrates Riki, akin to the frustration support players feel when dealing with him in-game. Shen offers her assistance in locating the missing blacksmith and, by extension, Riki's dagger.
Chapter 5:
Scree'Auk, devoid of powers, discovers Shifty Busko hiding from Riki in a barrel, fearing retribution due to a bounty on his head. Shifty explains his reluctance, fearing Riki would use the new dagger to claim the bounty.
Chapter 6:
After resolving the misunderstanding between Riki and Shifty, Riki finally obtains his prized dagger. However, questions linger regarding the bounty on Shifty's head. Despite the uncertainty, Riki departs with his dagger, and Shifty Busko escapes unharmed. As the group bids farewell, Shen extends an offer for Riki to assist her on her quest, but Riki vanishes in a puff of smoke before providing an answer.
While The Missing Smith's story concludes with a cliffhanger regarding Riki's involvement, completing it is still worthwhile. The reward for finishing Riki's Crownfall quest is an immortal item for the elusive trickster himself. And knowing Riki, this won't be the last we see of him.
