## **S1**

#### **The Disappearance of Buchanan, the Book Dealer**

1. Log in to receive a quest from Aeira.
2. Talk to Aeira and receive Buchanan's Library Pass (1x2-sized).
3. Go to Dunbarton's library and look at the Humanities bookshelf to find a Dunbarton Library Card (1x2-sized, lose Buchanan's Library pass)
4. Talk to Aeira to give her the library card.
5. Talk to Arzhela and receive a special Monocle. It is not repairable or trade-able, and cannot be dropped. However, it can be destroyed.
	* The only reason you will need to destroy it is if the Monocle's durability runs out or if you do not need it anymore. If you destroy your monocle before completing the quest, you can get it back by talking to her again.
6. She requests that you find old books lost in the shadow realm. You may only see where the books are by wearing the Monocle (they appear at shiny spots on the floor in the shadow mission).
	* Applicable missions: The Other Alchemists, Fomor Attack, Ghost of Partholon.
	* When talking to Arzhela, choose the option "Donate Books" to give her the book. You only require a single unrestored piece of a book or page of the book.
7. Obtain the Royal Library Card (1x2-sized) and a solo shadow mission (Royal Library Investigation).
	* You will fight several bone monsters before the boss, which is a Blinker.
	* After the fighting, an inhostile Cichol will spawn. Talk to him to clear the mission.
8. Talk to Arzhela and she will take your library card. Wait for the next quest.

#### **The Royal Chef**

1. Talk to Glewyas. He will give you the Hotcake of Love Recipe, which is a Kitchen Dungeon pass.
2. Talk to the Iron Pot and choose this pass to enter the "Hotcakes of Love" solo dungeon. If you fail, talk to Glewyas to receive another pass.
3. Recipe is 5 to 9 fruits, 5 to 13 flour, 7 eggs and 7:15 to 10 minutes time to cook. However, it is not necessary to get the exact amounts of ingredients to successfully finish this quest. Make sure to hit the fork after 10 minutes time so that you don't accidentally burn the ingredients.
	* The player must kill the specified ingredients inside the "Red Zone" in order for them to count. Ingredients killed outside of this zone will result in not counting towards the ingredients needed for the recipe. Do not put the Tableware inside!
	* Hitting the enemies with the cooking utensil that the Tableware drops (the first Tableware you will see usually spawns in the first 1-3 "respawns" of the ingredients you, or Glewyas, first kill) lowers the protection of the ingredients, so you can attack them with any attack to kill them. When Glewyas dies, he drops his Ladle and Cooking Pot. It is easier to kill the Tableware by knocking it out of the red zone, and picking up a Cooking Knife from it. The Cooking Knife has high splash radius, so be aware of Tableware using Defense, as they hit for a lot of damage. After you have your Cooking Knife, you can use Tame or Control of Darkness on the Tableware to prevent it from attacking you. The Tableware will continue to respawn several times during the mission.
	* It is recommended to use a regular Transformation so that one can kill the ingredients earlier (when it has higher protection).
	* After finishing the recipe, open the treasure chest that appears near the giant fork for a Hotcake of Love.
	* Do not buy a Hotcake of Love as it will not fulfill the requirement before completing the recipe.
	* The number of stars needed varies by your total level
		+ 0 ~ 99: 3
		+ 100 ~ 299: 4
		+ 300+: 5
4. Complete the recipe book and give Glewyas the Hotcake by the "Show Food" option.
5. Talk to Glewyas to obtain the Glewyas's Mythril Chef Recipe Book. Read it in detail to obtain another library card item.
6. Complete the solo Shadow Mission, Buchanan's Secret.
	* The only monster is 11 Strange Books. You don't have to defeat all the books, just get the key from one of the 11 books and enter the library, in which a cutscene will play and clear the mission.
7. Complete the quest and wait for the next one

#### **Alchemist Medal**

1. Talk to Sinead and receive the Alchemist Medal Shadow Mission and the Alchemist Medal item (1x2).
	* You will go through many rooms before meeting Cai. Talk to him.
2. Once you've completed the Alchemist Medal Shadow Mission talk to Sinead again and receive another Shadow Mission, The Pain of Love.
	* Find Leymore who is behind the Alchemy building (Eabha's/Dorren's usual location). Talk to him.
	* There are two waves of monsters here; one when you enter; another after you speak with Leymore. You may run past the first wave and directly speak to him.
	* After you defeat the second wave, talk to Leymore and receive Jenna's Letter (2x2).
3. Right-click and use the letter to view a cutscene.
4. Complete the quest and wait for the next one.

#### **In Search of Jenna**

1. Talk to Collen and receive Neamhain's Talisman (2x2).
2. Complete the Jenna's Revenge RP mission at Tara's altar.
	* The difficulty is fixed on Basic; it does not depend on your total level.
	* You must defeat ten Corrupt Alchemists at basic difficulty.
	* It is suggested that you use Ranged Attack or Magnum Shot while keeping a distance, as you are given no HP/SP potions. However, Jenna is strong enough to resist the Alchemist's damage, so rushing in crazily is fine but risky.

1. * Make sure your arrows are equipped by switching to your bow and looking for them on your back. If they are not, drop them and pick them up to auto equip.
2. Complete the quest and wait for the next one

#### **Evolution of Caliburn**

1. Talk to Sinead and receive the Shadow Mission, Investigating Traces of the Caliburn.
2. Complete the solo mission. A Royal Alchemist may assist you.
	* Eliminate two waves with 3 orbs each, and then the Boss which is a Shadow Commander.
	* You are aided by Cai and Leymore. If one of the duo dies, the mission fails.
		+ Both Alchemists tend to spam Water Cannon and Frozen Blast (which misses a lot) on the offensive, but will never use multiple charges of Water Cannon. If they are hit but not knocked back, they will attempt to melee. If knocked back, they will use Wind Blast. If their HP gets too low, there is a chance their Life Drain will kick in.
			- Both Alchemists have all their Alchemy abilities at Rank 1, but the AI is sloppy. You still have to defend/heal them at all costs.
	* After the waves are defeated, Morrighan will appear. Talk to her to complete the mission

#### **The Song of Parthalon**

1. Talk to Briana and receive a Parthalonian Artifact (1x1) and a Red Wings of the Goddess to Ciar Dungeon.
2. Drop the Partholonian Artifact onto the normal Ciar altar to enter the dungeon. If you try to use the item at the Ciar Hardmode altar, it will just create a non-quest Ciar Normal Hardmode. The dungeon has no boss.
	* Difficulty depends on your total level.
		+ Basic = Ciar Intermediate for One, fewer rooms and spawns, 2 floors
		+ Intermediate = 2 floors, Ciar Intermediate
		+ Advanced = 2 floors, Ciar Intermediate
		+ Hard = 2 floors, Ciar Advanced
	* Talk to Buchanan at the boss room. You will then be instantly removed from the dungeon.
		+ Before talking to Buchanan, you may want to open your chest before doing so. Do not leave by the Statue or you will have to restart.
	* Talk to Briana for another relic if you fail the dungeon or fail to complete the quest objectives in any way.
3. Talk to Briana again. Listen to the music she composed. She will ask if you enjoyed it or not afterwards, and if you answer yes then she will give you a score scroll titled "Parthalonian Prince" that is Grade A difficulty. You can also listen to it again by talking to Briana.
4. Complete the quest and wait for the next one

#### **Buchanan in the Shadow Realm**

1. Talk to Sinead and receive the Shadow Mission, Buchanan Inside the Castle.
2. Enter the solo mission.
	* If Cai or Leymore die, the mission fails.

4. Enter the solo mission.
	* If Cai or Leymore die, the mission fails.
	* Hit the switches in the Dining Room in the order on the map below. Face your camera to the north or use the doorways in the image below to orient the camera in the proper direction to figure out which switch is which.
		+ **Note:** Dual Wielding may cause you to hit switches multiple times.

* When you get to the Armory, you will see a cutscene. You'll earn the keyword "Uroboros" upon completion. You will also be given the Book of Partholon

5. Complete the quest and wait for the next one

#### **The Book of Partholon**

1. Talk to Sinead.
2. Talk to Arzhela.
3. Talk to Sinead and receive the solo Shadow Mission, Seven Pages.
	* You need to insert pages 1-7 into the collection book. The book cannot be traded or stored in the bank or on pets.
	* The pages come from the reward chest of the mission and can be 'harvested' from the Leprechaun after it is *knocked down*, not simply knocked back. Nothing must be equipped in either hand in order to gather from the Leprechaun. The best ways to knock down a Leprechaun are Firebolt, Wind Blast and Windmill or have a weak pet Smash it.
	* The reward chest does not always have a page that has not yet been inserted in to the book.
	* Be careful, the Leprechaun doesn't have much HP. A common, helpful tactic is to use Wind Blast, as it's damage is incredibly low even at high ranks. Using any others may obliterate the Leprechaun.
	* A total of three pages can be harvested from the Leprechaun.
	* You will have to run the mission a minimum of twice to complete the book, as the Leprechaun can only be harvested three times, totaling four pages per run.
	* If you're getting help from a Royal Alchemist, two treasure chests will spawn at the end. Both Chests will ALWAYS have the same page in them.
	* One way to do this instead of running through the entire mission, is to leave after the first room that spawns the Leprachaun and to re-do the process until you get all pages.
4. After completing the book, read the book and press "Collect Reward" to receive the Partholon Stone (2x2).
5. Complete the quest and wait for the next one

#### **Partholon Stone**

1. Talk to Sinead.
2. Talk to Belita to receive Belita's Letter (2x2). You will lose the stone.
3. Talk to Lucas and give him the letter. He will give you a Red Wing of the Goddess to Peaca Dungeon.
4. Buy an Underwear Set and drop it on Peaca Dungeon's altar.
	* You may bring up to eight people.
	* It's a short, single floor Peaca Normal with only one monster (sometimes two) per room at a time and Lucas as a boss. The spawns are not weakened, however.
5. Once you have given Lucas a good pounding, talk to Belita to receive the Partholon Crystal (1x1).
6. Complete the quest and wait for the next one

#### **Shock**

1. Talk to Sinead to receive the Shadow Mission, Ancient Alchemy.
2. Enter the solo shadow mission at Tailteann's Altar.
	* This mission is much like Dorren's Request, but without the need to synthesize an item. Unfortunately, you have to solo it.
	* Head to the center of town to find the switches.
		+ The monsters do not always drop the items.
	* Speak to Leymore after collecting Dark Oil, Unstable Darkness Crystal, Magic Crystal, and Stone Crystal to view a cutscene and complete the mission.

	* Speak to Leymore first and then head left of the map to the waterfall where a cutscene is presented.
	* After the cut-scene, quickly use Shock on yourself and grab the Brionac.
		+ You can load Shock before the cutscene to save time, but do not use it.
	* If you're not fast enough, Neamhain may defeat Leymore and force you to start over.
	* Receive Brionac as your reward (1 x 5). This is not the weapon; just an item.
3. Complete the quest and receive the next quest immediately. You will also get the Goddess Needle (2x2)

#### **Goddess Needle**

1. Enter the Location of Destiny Shadow Mission at Tara's shadow mission altar.
	* If you give up or lose the Location of Destiny shadow mission, use the goddess needle in you inventory to receive it again.
	* Fight your way down the road and up to the bridge/ramp.
	* You will encounter Python Knight at the Palace gates.
		+ It is best to lure him away from his mobs to avoid multi-aggro.
		+ Use the Shadow Stone to fend off his Shadow Death.
			- Allow the attack to strike you (it will turn you tinted black) and then use the Shadow Stone. You must use it exactly when it touches you.
				* If you fail to use the Stone on time, Shadow Death will not put you into deadly, but rather, defeat you instantly.
			- Repeat this three times for a sequence of cut-scenes to start.
	* In the second encounter, you are automatically given Awakening of Light transformation, which is infinite.
		+ You will be able to use Awakening of Light and Shadow Spirit without EXP penalty. **However Spear of Light and Fury of Light will still use EXP when used.**
		+ You will also be given the skill Shadow Spirit.
		+ The Shadow Stone will be removed from your possession unless you repeat the mission.
		+ In this phase, you cannot defend yourself from the Shadow Death; you must dodge it or face your doom. He can also use it while he is stunned. Use the speed boost from Awakening of Light to your advantage in order to run away from the attack.
		+ Defeat his minions so that you may use the new skill to absorb their shadows and attack him with it.
		+ All attacks on him will only do 1 damage until you've done this. Using Shadow Spirit once is enough to lower his Protection and allow you to do full damage to him with any other attack.
2. Complete the mission, you will lose the Goddess Needle.
3. Wait for the next quest

#### **Caliburn Pass**

1. Talk to Padan and receive the Shadow Mission, To the Altar of Caliburn.

	* Eliminate the spawn of four Python Shamans.
	* A scene will play, spawning Uroboros.
		+ Uroboros is split into four different entities. You must defeat all of them.
		+ Since Uroboros takes up most of the battlefield, the camera becomes "fixed". This can be toggled by clicking the "camera" button on the top right hand corner of the screen.
		+ Uroboros attacks by spitting energy bursts at it's target, and depending on the color, has a special effect. At some point, all 4 beings will simultaneously spew flames directly on the center or turn 90 degrees to the right and flame.
			- To effectively avoid the attacks, you must constantly run around the battlefield while attacking. To avoid the flames, either stay away from the center and the other heads (when they fire in the middle) or go to the center (when they fire to the side).
		+ Each head has two different parts: the head and the body. The body must be eliminated in order to attack the head. Killing the head is the key to defeating Uroboros.
			- You cannot delay; the head doesn't stay down very long, and thus, the body must be killed again.
		+ As time passes, a Uroboros will put up an energy barrier, preventing the body from being targeted. Thus, you must target another Uroboros.
		+ When a Uroboros head is killed, it will turn black.
		+ **Warning:** Even if a head is killed, it will still be "alive" and attack.
	* When Uroboros dies, Generation 11 is over.
2. You will receive the Brionac as a reward upon completing the mission.
3. Complete the quest to receive the Caliburn enchant scroll.
	* **Note:** If you do not complete the quest for whatever reason, the Brionac will not be able to absorb Shock and you will not be able to use any of the Brionac's special abilities

	* Proceed along the waterway and fight through three more rooms and you will come across the boss room, where a cutscene plays as you enter.
	* Afterward you will fight Claimh Solas. Unlike in G9, it will be in its second form initially.
		+ You should do all preparations before entering the boss room. Claimh Solas has a very wide detection range and can detect you from the middle of the room while you are still standing at the door. If you prepare while Claimh Solas is active, it may just overwhelm you.
		+ If you had kept your Shock Crystals and still have enough points for Awakening of Light, Spear of Light, and Brionac, use them to form Spear of God.
		+ Finish Claimh Solas quickly! Cai will succumb to a few Light Sword attacks, not to mention they can hit him even if he is outside of the boss room.
