M.E.R.C.: Finding Biff is a quest in Jagged Alliance 3.
Acquisition[]
Talk to Basil in Ernie Village (H2).
Walkthrough[]
The quest can be taken on the starting location, Ernie Island, by talking to Basil. He will mention that mercenaries already visited Ernie Island and left. The leader of the squad was Biff Apscott.
Subsequent information about Biff's whereabouts can be acquired in different ways. One way is to talk to Biff's squad members Smiley or Larry Roachburn. By talking to them the player can find out that they got separated in Pantagruel and Diamond Red (A2) respectively and futher information can be found there.
If the player visits Pantagruel and helps Chimurenga in the fight against the legion he will tell the player that Biff received the Green Diamond from the dying Marquis at Diamond Red and asks to retrieve it. He also advises to look for Biff in the mountains.
If the player moves towards the sector A8 Biff will call though the radio for help in repellling the attack of the legion.
In the Hill Station sector Biff will shine a light on the history of legion creation and the identity of The Major. During the conversation the enemy forces will arrive and the battle will start with multiple enemy waves attacking. Depending on the player's relationship with Chimurenga he may be among the attackers in order to retrieve the Green Diamond. In this case Chemurenga's fate will determine the outcome of Pantagruel Drama quest.
After the fight the player can ask about the Green Diamond and if the player has Larry (after rehab) or Smiley in the squad then Biff will leave the diamond to the player.
Green Diamond can be given to Chimurenga as he requested or Emma Lafontaine as part of the Museum of the Adjani quest.
