Walkthrough
After accepting the quest you start from Fort Ranik and talk directly to Gelsan the Outfitter who is standing in front of the portal. After that you walk straight ahead until you can see some bandits. One of them is carrying the stolen goods of Gelsan. By killing him he will drop the stolen goods. You can pick up the item and carry it back to Gelsan. Therefore you will receive the Vanguard Equipment (needs an item slot in your inventory). Carrying it back to Captain Arne will complete the quest.

Initial dialogue

 * Captain Arne
 * "There are no more stalwart people than the people of Ascalon. They see the good work that Prince Rurik and his Vanguard are doing, and each day their will to take the fight to the Charr grows.  I have more volunteers to join the Vanguard than I can equip."


 * "I've ordered equipment and supplies for several new recruits from a merchant named Gelsan in Regent Valley, and I'd be greatly appreciative if you could go pick up the equipment and return it here to me. If you're willing to help, just travel south out of Fort Ranik into Regent Valley.  He'll be along the road somewhere."

Intermediate dialogue

 * Gelsan the Outfitter
 * "So good ole Captain Arne wants that gear, eh? Well, I'm all for that, but some bandits ran off with it.  If you can find those fellows and bring me back the stolen goods, I'll be more than happy to give you what you came for.  Just be sure to bring 'em back to me directly.  Not everything in there is what was paid for by your Captain Arne."


 * Gelsan the Outfitter
 * "Well then, that seems to be everything. Funny, isn't it?  Nothing like any military gear in here, but you're in luck: Turns out that it was just mislaid out back.  So here you go, no harm done to anyone what didn't deserve it, eh?"

Reward dialogue

 * Captain Arne
 * "Is that chest what I hope it is? Ah, yes, good...  Looks like the supplies we ordered are all here.  Thank you for attending to this matter.  I do not doubt Gelsan made it far more difficult than it needed to be.  He is a greedy cur, that one, but he usually comes through in the end, and now is not the time to turn our backs on anyone who might help our cause."
