Named after Emory and Oglethorpe from Aqua Teen Hunger Force (their leader is a disco ball named "Obnoticus.")

This gnome can be found on the second level of Booty Bays docks. Just up the ramp next to the hanging shark. He will be on the first house after the small bridge.

Kommentar von cribby

from the boat: follow the pier. see how it splits up or down? go up the ramp...stop. see the little guy sleeping? turn around and go up the other ramp. stop. see the bridge on your right? almost there! keep going straight, first door on your right.

The flavor text on this NPC suggests that despite his affiliation to the art of Gnomish Engineering, he seems to despise anyone who may be from Gnomeragan. I wish there was more story to this.

Edit: Wowwiki.com had the info I wanted.

Oglethorpe makes a point of telling players who speak to him that if they represent Gnomeregan, he has nothing to say to them and that they should leave. The reason for this hostility is revealed to Horde players who visit him to learn Gnome Engineering. According to Oglethorpe, he was ostracized by the rulers of Gnomeregan because they considered him an "intellectual threat." Indignant, he left Gnomeregan for good, which likely led to his residence in Booty Bay. Oglethorpe tells the player that because of the way the ruling faction of Gnomeregan treated him, it lost one of the greatest gnome engineers alive.

The show wasn't out when the game launched, but it's kinda funny that someone named after an Aqua Teen character also gives players a Robot Chicken, which is a Cartoon Network show as well.

Kommentar von Rasztra

Quests cannot be turned in to this NPC if you are hated with Booty Bay. So, if you are trying to restore your Booty Bay reputation by doing the Mechanical Chicken Escort quest, you will not be able to turn it in (while Hated).

This guy may also be named after General James Oglethorpe from the revolutionary war in 1782

Is there a way to find out if you've completed all the robot chicken quests? I certainly did one, probably two, and maybe all three, but that was years ago, and now that pets are on tabs, I want my robot chicken pet. Do his comments to players change if you've turned specific quests? This is very frustrating.

Kommentar von Fritz363

So I found out that if u are hated with booty bay you cant talk to this guy, which is bad for me because i became a gnomish engineer so i could farm the Lil' Smokey recipe off of him a few days prior to actually becoming hated with them. Hopefully theres a way to get my reputation up after im done getting rep up with the bloodsails XD

Kommentar von 311202

may be a stupid question, but will he still give quests/training to gnomes?

Kommentar von 389883

Blizz shudve made this guy a dranei. oglethorp is ALSO a blue alien.

Kommentar von realta

Obnoticus sounds an awful lot like obnoxious- which he is after having you tramp through Light knows how many zones for his stupid chickens.

Kommentar von 368042

When I found out that Oglethorp was in BB, I died a little inside :(. You see, I'm about 1/8 of the way to Hostile. That's around 5-10k rep I'm at now (I don't know the exact number; I'm writing this as maintanence is up). I spent around 50-70g getting Ratchet from 21k/36k Hated to 0/3000 Neutral. And this one is Silk cloth, which costs quite a bit more. :*( And the Gnomish engineering is always the coolest too...Goblins don't teach jack that's ny good. WTB Rocket boots & X ray specs :x

cant renew here or the gnome in if have thay taken it out of game

Kommentar von Kilgora

I find Oglethorphe's alarm clock ingenious. In his hut, he has a device over his bed that periodically draws out a hammer out from the wall in order to whack at him while he's lying down. One of the greatest gnome engineers alive indeed!

Kommentar von 496464

After unlearning Goblin Engineering, I got the mats to complete his quest by looking it up ahead of time.

He still will not let me learn Gnomish Engineering, directing me back to Tanaris to unlearn Goblin Engineering, which I've already unlearned.

3.3.2

Edit: Unclear to me, you just have to click on the book again after you unlearn it.

Don't make my mistake.

Kommentar von 511950

And, to top it off, if you are hated with the goblins from doing the bloodsail grind, he will not talk to you. Awesome for the engineers that wanted to learn goblin engineering.

Kommentar von splunk

This guy took me forever to find for some reason...

From the entrance:

Take an immediate left after you go down the stairs from the entrance (you'll be running along a cliff side).
Keep following the path, passing Booty Bay Blacksmith.
You'll see Dizzy One-Eye, keep following the path. Take the 2nd door on the left of the house Dizzy is standing next to (the house right before the bridge, there is a barrel next to it).

Hope this helped.

Kommentar von Nekrotik

He's an engineering trainer. Set your tracking for profession trainers and go toward the red bridge on the second level, the one you cross to get to the flight master. He's in the building to the left of the red bridge.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Interesting tidbit, this NPC is named after some Aqua Teen Hunger Force things. Oglethorpe is one of the Plutonians, his sidekick being Emory. Obnosticus is the discoball/higher power that the Plutonians had installed in the ship by the same guy that installed their laser forcefield.

Kommentar von Thottbot

He is on the top level, in the second unmarked shop SE of the Booty Bay Blacksmith, if that helps.

Kommentar von Thottbot

28,76 in Booty Bay, Stranglethorn Vale

Kommentar von Thottbot

To the person who said He is on the top level, in the second unmarked shop SE of the Booty Bay Blacksmith, if that helps., THANK YOU! I was running around looking for him for 15 minutes before I gave up and searched on here for directions. Your directions were perfect.

Kommentar von Thottbot

I've been searching for someone who can train me to 300. I'm stuck on 225. Do you have to be a certain lvl to go higher? I'm lvl 47. Any advice would be much appreciated.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Gnomes can't train here?
Won't let me

Kommentar von Thottbot

We were two in group, i triggered the escorte for the
chicken homing robot. We got to the pier without getting away from the chicken, but alas - i havent finished the q...? Why? The chicken told me it would go to Booty Bay...

Kommentar von Thottbot

lol im allmost 300master engineer and i cant talk to him :( so i have to start from the begginging?

Kommentar von Thottbot

Im engineering 300 and i cant talk to him either

Kommentar von Thottbot

James Oglethorpe founded Georgia as a debtors colony. Its hard to forget a name as fun to say as oglethorpe ^^

Kommentar von Thottbot

Ok guys read the quest log you dont need to talk to oglethorpe Obnoticus you gotta talk to his robot!

Kommentar von Thottbot

Ok, for all that desire to take Gnomish Engineering (specialization path) you NEED to speak with Tinkerwiz in the Barrens first, before making your trip to Booty Bay. Tink will give you a book to take to Oglethorpe. Once this is done Ogle will talk to you. Hope this helps =)

Kommentar von Thottbot

He is actually name after a college. Funny, huh? I actually think it's 2, I'm not sure. Like you sayed, he is also named after little action toys.

Kommentar von Thottbot

He's at 28,76. That'll save a lot of wandering around.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

What the &*!@ ? i've been looking for him for like 10 minutes, i couldn't find him. I'm precisely at 28,76 where he's supposed to be, there's a yellow spot on the map right where i am, but he's just not there (did the whole house).

So WTF ?

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Nice Aqua Teen Hunger Force reference.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I have been looking all over BB for about 30 minutes and can't find him... Argh

Matey.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

So what exactly does this do besides cost me another membership fee for wonderful WoW? Its jus gives me options from Oglethorp and thas it?

Ima make a reference to ATHF On the Scarlet Crusade Server me and my brother control the "Aqua teen Hunger Force" guild. Jus thought id mention lol

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Not the first time I waste several minutes trying to find this guy. When you enter Booty Bay follow the boardwalk towards the buildings, go up the first ramp, turn do a 180 go up again... you pass a red bridge walkway and the first house on your right is his home.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

he´s on upper floor.. and if you want be gnome eng. you have to go to ratchet and take Q from one goblin near gryphon master

Kommentar von Allakhazam

28,76 on cosmos, in an unmarked building

Kommentar von Allakhazam

from the boat.. go up the ramp.. and continue to go straight, you'll pass 2 places.. keep going.. the ramp ends and you have to turn right.. then you see 2 other places.. its the second one and hes right inside there.. hope this helps :P yes the cords are correct! 28, 76

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Found him, nevermind ... :) He's at 28,76 as said above.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

he will not train me. he tells me to walk the other way? im lv 38 and 254 eng? why cant i train

Kommentar von fiberi

Fair warning for other fellow Dummies playing Classic WoW:

Completing one of the The Pledge of Secrecy quests and then not completing one of the Show Your Work quests locks the player out from switching their Engineering specialisation. Even if you unlearn Engineering and then re-level it, you will still be offered the same Show Your Work quest as before.

Book "Soothsaying for Dummies" will not offer to switch your specialisation because the game doesn't consider you to have one in the first place.
The Game Masters will not help you with this problem. Believe me, I've tried.

Kommentar von Dablackness

Does anyone know if this is the dude to teach us more stuff in TBC.

Kommentar von EinZeitgeist

Easy location reference point: find First Mate Crazz on the first level docks (very center of the U-shape of the dock, 42.6 72.0 coords). Facing the buildings, Oglethorpe is in the building directly above him. Cheers!
