Champions Online: Crisis in Canada Survival Guide - Page 2

Posted Thu, Aug 06, 2009 by Sardu


A Crafty Contrivance

Upon reaching Canada, your first stop will be Justicar, an NPC centrally located in Force Station Steelhead that will serve as your primary contact throughout the mission arc. Along with the opening missions in the main quest chain, he will also offer you a quest that will set you on the path to selecting one of the three primary crafting professions. While full details on the crafting system are beyond the scope of this guide, the following information and quests will get you headed in the right direction.

[7] A Crafty Contrivance

CONTACT: Justicar
QUEST TYPE: Locate NPC
OBJECTIVES: Speak with the Arms, Science and Mysticism Crafters.
DETAILS: After speaking with each of the trainers located at Steelhead, select which of the available professions you want to learn. Each of the trainers will provide you with additional details on what sets each profession apart, so that you can select which one fits best for the stat focus or general theme you’ve selected for your character.

[5] Cure for the Uncommon Cold

CONTACT: The crafting trainer for your chosen profession
QUEST TYPE: Collection / Crafting
OBJECTIVES: Gather 3 components, based on your chosen profession; ARGENT Arms (Arms), Spirit Crystals (Mysticism) or Bio Serum (Science).
DETAILS: The requested components can be gathered fairly quickly by checking your map for a highlighted area where a small grouping of Skill Items is located. Once you’ve collected all 3, return to your trainer who will give you a Development recipe for a Coldshield device based on your profession, as well as the final component needed to create the device. Upon creation of the device the quest will update automatically and grant you a decent amount of XP and Resources for your efforts.

Optional Missions

Force Station Steelhead


While Justicar will act as your primary contact throughout the crisis, there are a couple of additional quests that can be discovered as you head out from Force Station Steelhead. While optional, these will add a nice boost to XP and can be completed fairly quickly in areas where you would already be questing.

[5] Torn from the Sky

CONTACT: Oceanica Pilot John Torn
QUEST TYPE: Escort
OBJECTIVES: Help get Oceanica pilot John Torn back to Steelhead safely
DETAILS: Just south of Steelhead you’ll see a new quest marker on your map at about the midway point to the quest marker for The Ordeal of Oceanica 408. Once you speak to the pilot, he’ll ask you to escort him back to Steelhead. Along the way you’ll encounter a few groups of ice demons which spawn in your path and will immediately begin attacking the pilot. Be sure to draw their agro quickly, otherwise the pilot can die, forcing you to attempt the quest again from the beginning. The quest will automatically update once you reach the Steelhead gates, at which point you can speak to Justicar for your reward.

[5] Free From Debris

CONTACT: Automatically offered near the Ordeal of Oceanica 408 quest objectives
QUEST TYPE: Rescue
OBJECTIVES: Free crash survivors trapped by debris (5)
DETAILS: Numerous passengers have been trapped under the wreckage from the downed Oceanica flight. To rescue them, you’ll first need to defeat any ice demons in the area before lifting or destroying the debris to free the passengers. Once you’ve freed all 5, head back to Steelhead and speak to Justicar for a sizable XP reward.
