Quests » Minor Quests

The following are not Quests as listed in the quest log, but are minor things you can investigate in Metroplexity, leading to additional skills, items, techniques or other rewards. Spoilers are hidden below. If you want to poke around but not sure where to start, these may give you some hints at things that are more than they seem at first glance.

Poetry on the Quad

On the quad, there is a horrible poet whose life goal seems to be to annoy the bejesus out of everyone.

Equipping the Survey of Modern Poetry will prevent this encounter from showing up (only while equipped).
Killing the poet or doing the Punk Uprising quest will permanently remove this encounter, but doing either adds additional combat encounters to the quad.

Bad poetry: obtained if you ignore him (or kill him).

"Respond with worse" with bad poetry equipped, to transforms it to satirical poetry.

Satirical poetry:

Equip it and use Survey of Modern Poetry to transform it to programmatic poetry.
Or, equip it while hacking the Post Archive (University Net) on some sites to "jot down some notes".
- Once you have jotted notes down (5-8 times?), "Respond with worse" to transform it vicious poetry (has no known further use - needs investigating).

Programmatic poetry:

"Respond with worse" with programmatic poetry equipped (twice? or maybe a stat check?), to transforms it to programmatic satire.

Programmatic satire:

Take an Orange Juice sample the previous day, equip programmatic satire and use Survey of Modern Poetry.
- This destroys the programmatic satire but unlocks the ability to "Psychoanalyze him". Doing so removes the poet from the quad for the day.
