Repeating the quest only allows you to gather 4 complex gadgets. Even after selling one and redoing the quest, you cant get more than 4 of of it.

You could also just upgrade one of the pods then do the quest again, since you only need 3 per Pod...

You can use the Chapter Select to fully upgrade the pods. I could only complete one pod within the whole story. And the others up to lvl3.

There is a potential for a Complex Gadget to spawn there during Route C's introduction hacking phase as 9S, as well as presumably for the rest of Route C. It's a rare spawn, but it's the same spawn rate as the Cradle for the Forest Castle.

The most early you can get all the 6 complex gadgets is when you are in your 2nd playthrough with 9s. You need to have the dlc "3C3C1D119440927" and go to the arena of the forest. Cleared a first time the rank 3 of this arena and do it again. Among 3 items, you can randomely get a complex gadget (sometimes you will get an other rare item instead of this). In the same way, you can get meteorite on the rank 2 !

All I get from the underground colosseum is elaborate gadgets. I have not seen a single complex gadget reward.
