Crafty Contact

 is a questline in Crashlands and is the very first questline given to the player. It is a series of important story-related quests, as they lead up to building a communications device to contact the Bureau of Shipping.

Floored

 * To do
 * Create 1 Set (which are 10) of Thatched Sawfloor.png Thatched Sawfloor. You will need to cut down Sawgrass.png Sawgrass to do so, which you can cut down without a tool.
 * Reward for getting the Quest
 * A BS SSSS SS5.png BS SSSS SS5 Crafting Station appears near to your escape pod.
 * Useful hints
 * At this point Flux will have no Tools, but besides of cutting Sawgrass.png Sawgrass you can pick up Stick.png Sticks, Kibweed.png Kibweed, Dirt.png Dirt without any tools. You can also pick up Baconweed.png Baconweed, which heals Flux for 81 HP. Just pick it up with you on the run.

Foundations

 * To do
 * Place some of the created floors with the Build mode.

Build the Saw

 * To do
 * Create a Sawgrassaw.png Sawgrassaw.
 * Reward for getting the Quest
 * Sawgrassaw.png Sawgrassaw Schematic
 * Useful hints
 * Besides Sawgrass Blade.png Sawgrass Blades you will need Stick.png Sticks to create the saw.

It's Milling Time

 * To do
 * Create a Sawmill.png Sawmill.
 * Reward for getting the Quest
 * Sawmill.png Sawmill Crafting Station Schematic
 * Useful hints
 * With the Sawgrassaw.png Sawgrassaw you can harvest Logtree.png Logtrees and Whistleroot.png Whistleroots now. For The Sawmill you'll only need Log.png Logs from Logtrees, but you can start to harvest Whistleroots also. If harvesting Whistleroots be aware of Glidopus matriarch.png Glidopi, because they get aggressive by harvesting them and they are overleveld, which means they'll deal massive damage to you at this point of the game. It may be useful to gather some more than the required Logs, because you'll need more of them in the follow up quests - at the beginning 70 logs are solid. Also don't stop to harvest the other stuff since you'll need many of them at this point of the game. If it gets darker, you will get the Nightlight Questline from Juicebox, to get your torch. If harvesting Sawgrass, there's a small chance the The Hydrablade.png Hydrablade drops - you will get the Wild Claws questline, which is finished if you crafted one pair of Hydrablade Woodshankers.

Saw Horse

 * To do
 * Place the Sawmill. You can only place it on a Floor, so use one of your 10 pre-built floors from Floored.

Wood Plated Steel

 * Reward for getting the Quest
 * Logchest Schematic


 * To do
 * Create a Logchest.png Logchest in the Sawmill.

Shank Prep

 * Reward for getting the Quest
 * Sawgrass Sword Schematic


 * To do
 * Craft the Sawgrass Sword.png Sawgrass Sword.


 * Useful hints
 * If you gathered enough Sawgrass seed.png Sawgrass Seeds, JuiceBox will give you the Furdle Durt.png Furdle Durt Schematic to plant them.

The best defense...

 * To do
 * Create a Skinnery.png Skinnery.
 * Reward for getting the Quest
 * Graxe.png Graxe and Deadwood.png Deadwood
 * Useful hints
 * You can attack creatures now. As in the whole game - be aware of the Creatures Level. Yellow named enemies you can attack easily, orange named enemies are harder and red enemies you should really avoid, especially on higher difficulties. The only yellow written enemies with a Sawgrass Sword equipped will be the small Wompit.png wompits - so prefer to kill them. The text colour changes every time you'll equip a higher weapon. Kill enough wompits to get the required materials for the skinnery and harvest some whistleroots - be aware of Glidopus matriarch.png Glidopus here, they'll get aggressive by harvesting whistleroots and even the smallest are overleveld. If fighting a while, you will get the Space wrench.png Space Wrench automatically after a short dialogue of Juicebox and Flux.

To Powaapol

 * To do
 * Go to the red point Powaapol on the map. A Dialogue will appear soon.
 * Useful hints
 * If you created the skinnery, you can start to build new armor and weapons - try another weapon than the sword now (just to see which you like most). Between Powaapol and your Landing Place should be an Outpost called Uugy's meadow. There are some quests for you, also an optional boss questline.

A brief meeting with Burl

 * To do
 * Talk to Burl

The trust of a Tendraam

 * To do
 * Go to the yellow marked area Burl's Home and kill the wompits in it.
 * Useful hints
 * Try to pull not all of them. You can lure them better with the Space wrench.png Space wrench, but it all requires a little practice in the game. There is a Wompit Heifer already, which (in contrast to the small wompits) is able to drop an Wompit Egg.png egg and unlock the Mother Duck Questline, which is all about pets at the example of a wompit. If you don't get an egg here don't get mad, you will kill enough higher wompits later - maybe with better weapons.

Return to Burl

 * To do
 * Talk to Burl.

Get the Resonator

 * To do
 * Create a Pickaxe Pickaxe.png to take the Power crystal.png Resonator. After picking it up, Hewgodooko will come and kill Burl. You'll need to tell it to Burls Grandmammy now.
 * Reward for getting the Quest
 * Pickaxe.png Pickaxe Schematic

Bearing Burl's Roots

 * To do
 * Create a Potted Sunshroom.png Potted Sunshroom from a Stoneshaper.png Stoneshaper and go to the yellow marked area Grandmammy's . You will get the Stoneshaper.png Stoneshaper and the Potted Sunshroom.png Potted Sunshroom Schematic by accepting the quest.
 * Useful hints
 * With the Pickaxe.png Pickaxe you can harvest Flatboulder.png Flatboulders, Walkerroot.png Walkerroots, Bumpberry.png Bumpberrys and Juice Crystal Clusters now. You will need a ton of Flatstone.png Flatstones from Flatboulders now - they are more common on the grey ground, which is a little farer from your landing point. Just go a little and you'll find some fields of rocks. If you got the Stoneshaper.png Stoneshaper craft your next weapon and maybe some armor, if you already killed some glutterflies - if not do it on the run. If you like, you can mark the Juice Crystal Clusters with a Wooden Writable Sign.png Wooden Writable Sign. They will respawn every 6 hours and are very useful, if you got a Juiceforge in the Bawg (next biome).

If you have given the sunshroom to Grandmammy its advisable to talk to her again for the Proper Vittles Questline - for accepting it you will get the Hearth Workstation Schematic, in which you can create Savanna Potions. Potions are quite more effective than natural Healing Herbs like Baconweed or  Sunshrooms.

To Graam's Laboratory

 * To do
 * Go to the red Point Graam's Laboratory and talk to Graam here.

Graam's bug problem

 * To do
 * Kill the 4 spawned Glutterfly Workers (Lvl 3). By the way: this is easier with a Wompit.png Wompit Pet and a weapon crafted in the Stoneshaper.png Stoneshaper.

Graam's BIG BUG problem

 * To do
 * Kill the Queen o' the Glutters, a Glutterfly Drone (Level 5). Laanaa will appear out of her.
 * Reward for completing the Quest
 * Chemworks.png Chemworks & Pointy Pinwheel.png Pointy Pinwheel Schematic

To Ramerl's Smithy

 * To do
 * Create a Pointy Pinwheel.png Pointy Pinwheel with your fresh Chemworks.png Chemworks Workstation and show it to Ramerl. You will find her in the yellow marked area Ramerl's Smithery.
 * Useful hints
 * For the Chemworks.png Chemworks you'll need 2 Wompit Hearts, which are only dropped by Wompit Heifer (Lvl 3) or higher. So kill them. If you still got no Wompit Egg.png egg, at this point you will get it probably. Also you will need to kill Glutterflies: be aware - they only come out in the night. Juicebox will realize this, too - and give you the Stone Bed.png Stone Bed Schematic. With a Stone Bed.png Stone bed  you will be able to regenerate all your Health and sleep to the opposite Daytime (at night you'll sleep to day and vice versa).

Water logged

 * To do
 * Bring Ramerl 5 Water balloon.png Water Balloons from the Water Pump.png Water Pump. You will get the Water Pump.png Water Pump Schematic for accepting this Quest.
 * Useful hints
 * If you haven't crafted a Level 5 weapon in the Chemworks.png Chemworks till now, this is the moment. Water balloon.png Water Balloons are an essential Savanna Item and you'll need many of them. You need to kill Glidopus matriarch.png Glidopi to get Glidopus Siphon.png Glidopus Siphons, the base of Water Balloons. Track the Number of Siphons you have by tracking the Water Pump.png Water Pump: 20 for the pump and at least another 20 (so 40 in total) for the other stuff are advisable. At this point it is enough to kill the smallest (Glidopus Hatchlings Level 5) - but to continue with the main story later in the game you will need to have a domesticated Glidopus matriarch.png Glidopus for Glidopus larva.png Glidopus Larvas. So it can't be bad to fight the stronger ones, too - especially on lower difficulties it shouldn't be too hard.


 * If you brought Ramerl 5 Balloons, talk to her again for the Firespitter Questline, which brings you the Flamethrower.png Flamethrower Schematic (which is a great Device) and is very easy to end. You'll just need to bring 1 Nitro.png Nitro to Ramerl. For Nitro you will need to have a wompit pet, because Wompit Milk.png Wompit Milk is required for it.

Talk to Grandmammy 'bout Fishin'

 * To do
 * Talk to Grandmammy. She'll give you the Basic fishing pole.png Basic Fishing Pole Schematic. Now start to fish. After some tries you'll find the Battery.png Battery.
 * Useful hints
 * For bringing Ramerl 5 Water balloon.png Water Balloons she will give you the Squathe.png Squathe Schematic. But to craft it you will need a Blastique Saw.png Blastique Saw first. With the Blastique Saw you'll be able to cut down Gassak.png Gassaks, Straddlebark.png Straddlebarks, Squee.png Squees and Bulbi.png Bulbis.
 * If you get the Basic fishing pole.png Basic Fishing Pole from the Squathe.png Squathe you can fish Savanna fishing.png Savanna Fishing holes - also you'll be able to create the next Crafting station now: the Fishiminea.png Fishiminea, which isn't required for the next 5 main quests. Build it up asap nevertheless and upgrade your gear, it's worth it.

Bring the Battery to Grandmammy

 * To do
 * Talk to Grandmammy.
 * Useful hints
 * Grandmammy builds up her base now. You can start many Questlines from the Quadropi now, which will bring you Potion and bomb recipes. You'll also face the Quadropi in the other biomes.

Out of Retirement

 * To do
 * Go to the yellow Marked Area Hewgo's Supply Cache and look for a Hewgo Base here. There will be a Wompit Bull (Level 5), a Glutterfly Queen (Level 7) and a Glidopus Matriarch (Level 9) in this area. Take up the 3 Supply crate.png Supply Crates here and bring them to Grandmammy.

The Great Tartil infestation

 * To do
 * Go to the red Point Baarnapol and take out some tartils near the 2 Tendraam in the base there. At some point one of them (Baarnabus) will talk to you - talk to him now.

 * Create 20 Squee flooring.png Squee Floors and bring them to Gaaby, which stands next to Baarnabus.

Glartalar

 * To do
 * Go to the red Point Glatarlar's Den and kill Glatalar, a Level 11 Tartil Pappy. It may be useful if you already got gear from the Fishiminea.png Fishiminea.

Prepping the Kiln

 * To do
 * Craft and place the Crystal kiln.png Crystal Kiln.
 * Useful hints
 * Baarnabus gives you the Shellfinger Pick.png Shellfinger Pick Schematic, Juicebox will give you the Crystal kiln.png Crystal Kiln Schematic. Craft them now - to craft the Kiln, you'll need to craft the Shellfinger Pick first, which means to kill Zug mug.png Zugs and Mam wat.png Wats, which are the toughest savanna creatures - Wats will only appear at night.
 * With the Shellfinger Pick.png Shellfinger Pick you can harvest Dusk crystal.png Dusk Crystals.

Crafting the Comm

 * To do
 * Create the Comm relay.png Comm Relay in your new Crystal kiln.png Crystal Kiln - you'll have all the ingredients naturally, since they are quest relevant items. If you like you can upgrade your gear now to the Lvl 11 stuff from the Kiln. If you still got no Glidopus matriarch.png Glidopus Pet, slay the stronger Glidopus now: it shouldn't be too hard, since you got much better gear - as always just avoid red written enemies. Note that they got 80 % Fire resistance - so your Flamethrower.png Flamethrower or Volatile Sack.png Volatile Sacks won't deal many damage - take other weapons if possible.

To the High Ground

 * To do
 * Go to the yellow marked area High Ground - You'll find Hewgos base there. To enter it you'll need to fight

After the dialogues you will be able to swap your gadget/trinket set by pushing the button next to the potions.

The Crafty Contact Questline is done now and the first Quest of the Petty Theft Questline starts yet.
