{{BASEPAGENAME}} is one of the very first quests that the player can receive, and is recommended to finish its objectives ahead of time even before the player gets the quest if they did not spawn with two artifacts already to give to Argyve.

This guide assumes that the player has NOT fully completed the [[Early Game Checklist]], but hopefully have at the very least some witchwood bark from {{favilink|Elder Irudad}}. You can actually complete this quest while filling out the checklist at the same time for Maximum Efficiency. | ||

Even if you haven't, the {{favilink|rust wells}} are still a relatively safe place to visit. This way you can gather wire as well as look for possible artifacts to turn in. | ||

Actually getting to the Rust Wells can be difficult, especially for beginners traversing the world map. If they happen to be unfortunate enough to get lost in the hills, they can easily meet their end to a [[salthopper]]. One way of mitigating this is going down (<code>></code>) on every {{Parasang}}, and then moving back up to the world map. When the player gets lost, it drops them down in the middle screen of the parasang. If you've already seen the center of the parasang, you'll immediately recognize it and get not lost. | Actually getting to the Rust Wells can be difficult, especially for beginners traversing the world map.

The wildlife is similar to | The wildlife is similar to {{favilink|Red Rock}}, but it will always be covered in vines like {{favilink|jilted lover|plural}} or {{favilink|qudzu}}. They are weak and cannot move. They're a great way to boost exp (and much better than hitting glowpads and glowfish) if you haven't done Argyve's previous quests yet. However, qudzu can [[rusted|rust]] your metal equipment. This is less of an issue early on when most of your armor still isn't metal yet. If you picked up a lot of daggers like I told you, the chances that they'll rust an important weapon is much less likely because it will rust the daggers instead. Anyway, onto doing the actual quest. | ||

{{cleanup| is this still accurate as of updated rust wells?}} | |||
The reason why this quest is surprisingly easy to complete is because there are three rust wells on the map. Each center zone of the rust wells will spawn one of each type of [[wire strand]]s: 1', 3', 10', 20', and 50'. You don't actually need to care about any of them other than the 50' wire. Luckily, this is easy because it's the only one that's {{qud shader|R|bright red}} in color. | The reason why this quest is surprisingly easy to complete is because there are three rust wells on the map.
