GnoMAD's Gnomes | Small quests Darksiders 2 Guide

Last update: 11 May 2016

Unlocking the quest

This quest will appear in your log automatically upon finding one of four GnoMAD Gnomes. The remaining ones can be collected in any order, although the reward will be given to you only when have all four of them.

Below are their locations. Here's when it's best to start looking for them:

  • The City of the Dead - during the main quest [The City of the Dead].
  • The Ivory Citadel - during the main quest [Stains of Heresy].
  • The Black Stone - during the main quest [The Lord of the Black Stone].
  • Weeping Crag - while exploring the world freely, but not before unlocking Voidwalker.

GnoMAD Gnome - The City of the Dead

The Gnome can be found soon upon reaching the upper levels of the City of the Dead, right after dealing with the burning lift with spikes - GnoMAD's Gnomes - Small quests - Darksiders II - Game Guide and Walkthrough

The Gnome can be found soon upon reaching the upper levels of the City of the Dead, right after dealing with the burning lift with spikes. Get to the pressure plate pictured above.

Make sure you're not standing on the plate yourself, but somewhere around it - GnoMAD's Gnomes - Small quests - Darksiders II - Game Guide and Walkthrough

Make sure you're not standing on the plate yourself, but somewhere around it. Use Soul Splitter and have the first half stand on the plate (the above screen).

Switch to the other soul and send it left, using Death Grip to latch on to the interactive handhold - GnoMAD's Gnomes - Small quests - Darksiders II - Game Guide and Walkthrough

Switch to the other soul and send it left, using Death Grip to latch on to the interactive handhold. Grab onto the following ones, BUT stop at the one which has been uncovered due to the pressure put on the plate (the above screen).

Switch back to the first half of the soul and step off the pressure plate - GnoMAD's Gnomes - Small quests - Darksiders II - Game Guide and Walkthrough

Switch back to the first half of the soul and step off the pressure plate. If you did everything according to plan, the wall with the edge the second half is still holding onto should turn. Switch back to it again and you'll be free to explore the hidden part on the map (the above screen).

There are many treasures in the newly unlocked area, but the most important one is of course the GnoMAD Gnome (the above screen) - GnoMAD's Gnomes - Small quests - Darksiders II - Game Guide and Walkthrough

There are many treasures in the newly unlocked area, but the most important one is of course the GnoMAD Gnome (the above screen).

[TIP: If the Soul Splitter has been deactivated prematurely, try to stand closer to the pressure plate next time.]

GnoMAD Gnome - The Ivory Citadel

You can find the Gnome while exploring the western part of the Citadel - GnoMAD's Gnomes - Small quests - Darksiders II - Game Guide and Walkthrough

You can find the Gnome while exploring the western part of the Citadel. There is a flooded area, pictured above, which you can't access at first due to the presence of a black goo.

That area becomes available after charging the yellow ball in the highest tower and turning the goo into water over the whole western part of the Citadel - GnoMAD's Gnomes - Small quests - Darksiders II - Game Guide and Walkthrough

That area becomes available after charging the yellow ball in the highest tower and turning the goo into water over the whole western part of the Citadel. You're free to go through the hole in the wall shown on the screen.

GnoMAD Gnome - The Black Stone

The Gnome can be found during the last stage of exploring the Black Stone, right before going through the north gate which leads to Samael - GnoMAD's Gnomes - Small quests - Darksiders II - Game Guide and Walkthrough

The Gnome can be found during the last stage of exploring the Black Stone, right before going through the north gate which leads to Samael. I suggest starting off at the small lower corridor with a time portal (the above screen). Make sure, though, you're in the present.

Locate the interactive ledges and handholds and make your way up - GnoMAD's Gnomes - Small quests - Darksiders II - Game Guide and Walkthrough

Locate the interactive ledges and handholds and make your way up.

You should find yourself at the west balcony; there, go through the passageway leading to the closed door you've unlocked earlier while exploring the fortress in the other time zone (the above screen) - GnoMAD's Gnomes - Small quests - Darksiders II - Game Guide and Walkthrough

GnoMAD Gnome - Weeping Crag

Find a Serpent Tome

You'll receive this objective only after collecting all four GnoMAD Gnomes - GnoMAD's Gnomes - Small quests - Darksiders II - Game Guide and Walkthrough

You'll receive this objective only after collecting all four GnoMAD Gnomes. The game doesn't give you any specified location of a Serpent Tome, but these objects can be found in every area with an NPC. My recommendation is going to [Tri-Stone] in Forge Lands. Interact with the Tome (the above screen) and read the contents of the message entitled A Gift From: GnoMAD to receive a gift in the form of a legendary weapon (GnoMAD Scythes). What distinguishes this scythe from the others is that it deals additional random elementary or magic damage. Apart from the weapon, you'll also get 329 XP and 1500 gold.
