The Fabulous Five quest in Divinity: Original Sin offers players an engaging side adventure early in their journey through Cyseal. Joining this suspicious guild introduces unique narrative encounters and provides a valuable boost in experience points. Understanding the necessary steps ensures you maximize your rewards while navigating the quest smoothly.
Starting the Quest in Cyseal
To initiate the quest, head toward the King Crab Inn located within the city of Cyseal. You will encounter a recruiter named Mendius standing outside who invites you to join the Fabulous Five. Accepting his offer grants your characters various trait adjustments and unlocks your first major assignment.
Defeating the Arhu SparkMaster 5000
Your primary objective leads you into a northern cave to confront a rogue mechanical creation known as the SparkMaster 5000. Before heading out, speak with Arhu at the Legionnaire Headquarters to obtain the Universal Controller and its manual. Using the controller during combat allows you to weaken or disable the machine, making the encounter much easier to handle.
Keeping the Allies Alive
Upon entering the cave, you will encounter three members of the Fabulous Five who offer to assist you in battle. Protecting these allies throughout the fight ensures you earn maximum experience points. Keeping them alive requires careful positioning and strategic use of control abilities.
Claiming Your Quest Rewards
After destroying the SparkMaster 5000, return to Cyseal and speak with Mayor Cecil to report your victory. You will discover that Mendius and his companions have fled with the promised gold reward. Despite the betrayal, you will still receive a substantial 4500 XP bonus upon completing the storyline.
