Go to the black van indicated on the map. Access the laptop. The password is Sally.
Note the sequence provided to you. Angle your camera down and grab the beacon. You can use it or go to coordinates 557, 843. You'll need to do it alone and as so; EKT transmitter antenna –> Manifest Agitator –> PK Pulse Unit (red button).
I have remade my characters at least 30 times now trying to find a mix I like. I am a big fan of the decks because they're a good way to learn how the point system works. I have of course ran into some issues and yanked my hair out more than a few times. WARNING! There are spoilers. If you don't like it leave. This blog will mostly have quest information. I do however expect any players coming here to be able to read their maps. I will always tell you to look at the damn map.

The Secret World (TSW) Kingsmouth: Digging Deeper (Investigation)
Tier 1: Find the hidden tunnels. Go to City Hall. Examine the sidewalk and street area. There is a clickable area near the entrance steps. Click it. Yup it needs a key.

Tier 4: I had 8 friends working this one. It took a religious studies major to figure this out. >< Examine the note. WALK carefully over the letters ABYS then jump up on the S to nab it again and walk forward to the U and back to S. If you don't you're in for a nasty surprise. Proceed into the next room.
Examine the note again. Theres also sheet music on the wall. Examine it. After a lot of trial and error click 2nd lever + A, the A to sound the note, 1st Lever + E then E to sound the note, 3rd Lever + E then E to sound the note, 3rd lever + G then G to sound the note, 3rd Lever + G then G to sound the note.

The Secret World (TSW) Kingsmouth: The Pick-Up (Investigation)
Tier 1: See Map
Tier 2: Meet up with Cassandra. Proceed forward and take the 1st right. Avoid the lights by hugging the right wall, then the left, then the right wall again, until you get to the end of the hall.
Tier 3: Click the control box 3 times. Proceed forward and click the next control box to deactivate the lasers. Enter the room on the left.
Tier 4: Just pick a door. One has an enemy, another an uneventful entry, and the third is a surprise. It's random, contrary to what anyone says. I've done it enough to know.
Tier 5: Navigate the tiles. Again I recommend angling your camera view down for a better view. Avoid the charged ones. Pretty easy.
Tier 6: Down, Up, Down, Up. After the cut scene, exit using common sense.

The Secret World (TSW) Kingsmouth: Horror Show (Investigation)
Tier 1:
After accepting the quest from the good sheriff examine the Phone Book across the room. There are three locations highlighted; the Gas Station, Savings & Loan, and Museum.
Go to the Gas Station. Use the Trash Bin behind it to jump to the roof. The camera is in the left corner facing the pumps. Click it. Next, Go to the Savings & Loan. The camera is right above the door. Click it. Finally, go to the Museum and climb the ladder behind the building. Cross the roof to the Museum's roof. Go to the front of the building. The camera is near the American Flag.
Tier 2-3: Yup. That dick. Jump down and enter the museum. Then enter the basement. Following the cut scene, you have to follow the crazy guy. Let me stress the importance of not touching lasers or letting spot lights detect you. Bad stuff will happen. On that note, proceed through the right entrance at the laser beam wall. This first room is simple. Hug the wall on your right and follow it to the switch. Click the switch to deactivate the alarms.
The next wall of lasers can carefully be navigated. Just angle your camera to look down. It'll be easier to see where you can creep through. Creep carefully.
Again there is a room to navigate on the right. This one requires a little timing. Just stay out of the spot lights. You'll know when you've been detected. It'd best to just flee the room if it happens. Wait for the all clear sign and try again. After deactivating the switch you'll be attacked by the crazy after exiting the room. Kill it! Grab the lore and click the crate of cameras. You're done here.
Tier 4: Self Explanatory. (See Your Map)
Tier 5: If you made it here and are reading this you know how to use Google. I shouldn't have to say anything. *sigh* Click the computer in the Sheriff's Office. Select the appropriate options. Yay. You're done.

Damnit to Hell
All right. I'm back. My roommate talked me into trying this again. Yup, right after I posted my I quit blurb. >< She and her fiancee started again to fill time until Wildstar comes out. I figured I could definitely give it another chance. I'm going to do a clean run with a new character for additional content. The game is awesome I'll give it that. There will probably be a crap ton of yelling again. I will do my best to add any new quests that weren't self-explanatory.

Egypt Killed Me...Killed Me Good
It's been awhile since I last posted. I decided to step back from the game after too many annoyances with a single story line quest. I was angry and irritated, and maybe on too much caffeine at the time. Basically, I didn't want to give a bad review or shout out against a game I absolutely love just because of a few "issues" that might be minor.
I don't want to spoil the actual story line so I'll keep in basic. I made it 3/4 through Egypt's story quests. I ended up at a boss battle that involved waves of mobs. It was a solo event. I thought "hey, I like a challenge."
Five days later I am pulling my hair out. I couldn't progress. I just couldn't. I thought it might be a bug. I made an inquiry to the in game support and was told that they couldn't do it for me. Seriously? After 5 days I don't want you to do it for me. I wanted a yes or no that the quest may be bugged. It irritated me so much I decided to give it another 3 days. I checked my equipment at least 20 times. I had lv 10 blue gear across the board in a lv 7/8ish area. My spec was solid for the survival spec it was. My roommates ran it on a different "player recommended" spec and breezed through it. That spec would have required me to learn a weapon I had no interest in learning.
I stopped playing for awhile and discovered Minecraft, but my roommates carried on. They loved Transylvania. Eventually they wanted to "raid". They wanted tougher dungeons. >< That's when I began to associate the game with foul language and nerd rage. They needed very specific specs to get anything done. This eventually caused them to lose interest and drop the game too.
I decided to log in again after it went F2P. I am still truly impressed with the game. I felt motivated and inspired to try my luck at the quest again. I failed. I failed again. I failed for two days. The Secret World is a game in which players were promised they could eventually use all specs and completely customize their characters. A specific build should never be required to progress in story line in such a game. I understand the need to have AOEs. Every bloody weapon spec has an AOE or two. The second you require specific skills from a specific build, all that character customization became pointless. I love you Secret World. I truly do. Unfortunately, you've lost me and you lost my roommates as of March.
Yes, this is farewell. The information in past posts is still useful and I hope it helps players out. It's still an amazing game. I'm just not into yelling and screaming at a video game for over a week. Note to any game developers out there. If you tell folks there are 5 classes available and have required content that can only be completed by a specific class...you're not meeting your obligation to the player. :D
