I'm a foreign player, how can I do the missions Jokanur Diggings and Blacktide Den?
You must have completed either of the quests "Sunspears in Kryta" or "Sunspears in Cantha" before you can enter. Some players who did "Sunspears in Kryta" did not have their quests updated properly when their teammates spoke to Kormir in Lion's Gate; if you still have that quest in your log, go back to Lion's Gate and talk to Kormir to finish it.

I'm lost; the last mission I finished was Kodonur Crossroads, I don't have a primary quest, and I cannot get into the next mission, Moddok Crevice/Pogahn Passage.
You didn't get the next primary quest from the Master of Whispers (for Moddok Crevice) or Margrid the Sly (for Pogahn Passage). To find the Master of Whispers, enter Dejarin Estate from Kodonur Crossroads. For Margrid the Sly, enter Marga Coast from Yohlon Haven.

I picked the Master of Whispers over Margrid the Sly (or vice versa); how do I get into the other hero's missions?
Once you finish the mission associated with the hero you chose, you should be able to get into the opposite mission so long as someone in your party has the correct hero; for example, once you've completed Pogahn Passage you should be able to get into Rilohn Refuge if someone else in your party has the Master of Whispers. Just walk to the outpost and talk to the correct NPC to enter. To get to Dasha Vestibule, walk northwest of Honor Hill a ways and there will be a resurrection shrine in front of you. The wall to the right of the shrine will open up when you approach.

I didn't do "Heart or Mind: Garden in Danger" before beating the game; how do I get into the Nightfallen Garden and finish the quest? How do I enter the mission Jennur's Horde?
Currently you must team up with another player who has not finished the game yet in order to go back to the Nightfallen Garden. Once you finish that quest, you will be able to enter the mission in Jennur's Horde.

That mission progression just made it to a text file on my desktop. I've spent hours helping lost people figure out where to go next, and it'll be great not to have to depend on my patchy memory for quest NPCs and area names!

Can anyone tell me how to get ro Dasha Vestibule? I've got 19/20 missions completed, and want to get this one in order to complete my title, but I have no idea how to get there.

What quest do I need to take, and from who do I take that quesT?

It's NW of Honur Hill, to the right of the Res Shrine. (not the one directly outside Honur Hill, obviously)

You'll see some bright lights.

Thanks I was thinking I would be able to be telported there from the Grand Court or something, and needed a quest for that, wouldn't think you could zone to it.

Updated a few notes as it seems a lot of people miss getting To Kill a Demon and No Me, No Kormir. Those are two of the only three times you don't get a primary quest from the person you just turned in the primary quest to. (The third is after Mysterious Message, but who messes up that one?)

I was talking to someone with a foreign monk who couldnt get into Blacktide. I sent him to the Diggings, and he was able to get in there. From there, he was able to get into Blacktide through the back way (western exit from diggings)

You cannot get into Blacktide Den and Beknur Harbor from the Cliffs of Dohjok until you reach Blacktide Den from Fahranur, The First City. My assumption is that this is done so that the player follows the storyline for locations. This might be true for Elonan born characters as well, but I haven't checked on it.

not true

I did my own test today with my Canthan Ranger

She does not have the Diggings mission outpost or visited Fahranur

She ran from Champions of Dawn -> Cliffs -> Blacktide Den
and can enter Den mission

she does have The Time is Nigh quest if that makes any difference

I'm only up to Q7a, but I see only 17 missions listed with the "or" missions making up the final 3. Can you go back and do the missions you had missed along the way at some point?

Obviously there is some way since people have the titles...

when you finish the game
- you can get access to the heroes you missed
- you can do all the alternative missions you missed

I NEED HELP GUYS.. i am a tyrian character. i've beaten the game, and i got my last 3 heros. i am 16/20. i haven't done the quests yet for magrid the sly. once completed, i will be 18/20. i am left with Jokanur Diggings and blacktide den. i cannot do them. i have tried almost everything. there must be 1 thing left that i havn't tried. i've been told atleast 10 different ways to do the missions and no one in any of the cities in istani will talk to me. the most common things i have tried is different heros, zoning in thru different zone exits and joining groups already going to do the mission. if i join a group going on the mission, they get a msg saying i'm not a high enough level. i am level 20 with 7600 sunspear points. all my heros are level 20. so something is amiss in my game. what am i missing. do i really need to do magrids missions first before they let me do diggings and blacktide? was i suppose to do these missions before i even continued with the rest of the game? i myself wouldn't think so. you guys are smart. give me feed back.

P.S. if someone knows exactly what a tyrian and canthan character has to do from the beginning to the consulate docks. please post something so it can be added to this post. this post is very good, but missing any details on how the other 2 can progress up to the consulate docks. thank you

Hi thanks this was a big help got stuck and had no where to go. Found out I needed No more, no Kormir. lol
very good list and very helpful.

PS any tips on how to get through Moddock Crevice. I get to the part where you have to kill the two runners and there is not enough time before they alert the rest. That is the 4th thing you have to do for dunkoro to get bonus I think.

After you pick Master or Margrid, you don't need to beat the game to do the other path's mission. I haven't beaten it yet, and Pogahn Passage shows up as a mission for me (I chose Master of Whispers). I'm not sure at what point it becomes available to you, though. You do have to team up with someone who has the appropriate hero if you want to do the mission.

Well, somehow I did not secure either the Master of Whispers or Margrid and neither of them will speak to me now except to tell me to get lost. (Yes, I did Mysterious Message, got the reward, tracked down these two jokers even away from the original spot.)

What does anyone suggest? If the quests aren't activated, my ranger is finished mission/game-wise and that will piss me off no end!

Edit: Got it. Now I face the Big Bad Guy (yeah, right )

That is the 4th thing you have to do for dunkoro to get bonus I think. Do it with another human and both bring a crippling attack or water hex, both of you go after one runner. You can also do it by yourself and have a hero bring the snare skill, but it's tricker to coordinate the killing of both at once by yourself.

I can do it solo easily, every time, by target-locking 2 snare carrying heroes on 1 runner and disabling most of their skills except the snare and a decent spammable damage skill. I snare the other runner myself. Call the rest of your crew on the runner most likely to finish first, to make sure that one dies fast.

Hi,

I have a character created in the first version of GW (forgot what its called). I'm now trying to get that char through nightfall. After Venta I get to Kamadan and get stuck...don't see another mission. I've been reading that you're supposed to get "Council is called" from dockmaster whats-his-name...but he doesn't give it to me. He puts me on a boat and sends me somewhere...I have verified that I did complete Venta. I'm a sunspear general and all that...What do i do?

Thanks in advance.

You should go to the Consulate and check if there's a quest there.

Ok how about this.

I have a Tyrian-born character. I've done a couple missions in Elona (Diggings and Time is Nigh). There is nothing showing any progress for the completed Elona missions in my title tracking page although I do have the completed symbol, incluing the crossed daggers showing that the bonus requirements were met on the Elona map. I have the nagging feeling that I've missed something somewhere, but a forum search turned up no results for my situation.

Any ideas?

BTW: My character is a Sunspear General, so sunspear points shouldn't be an issue.

Ya broken game I have for characters coming over. Venta Cemetery -> Kamadan, Jewel of Istan, ya got there but didnt say anthing about a meeting, now I did all of the pogahn passage mission all the way thru and nothing no more quests great. I dont have magrid the sly or the ele horse, so do i hit the reset button or am I just out of luck? The game for people coming over, seems to be very very very buggy and glitchy, my koss was lvl 5 and most of the other characters were below 15 ugh. I think if mabey the cleaned it, but now this character is out of luck. Not happy am I.

They have added two new quest before the time is nigh, at least for foreign-born characters. One was securing champion's dawn, the other the mini-mission a land of heroes.

Clare You need to do the bonus on them to register in the completion track.

The symbol for having completed bonus is two crossed daggers/scimitars and a vertical spear. No spear=you haven't completed the bonus on the mission.

Thank you Narayanese. It is a subtle difference between crossed swords over the shield and crossed swords AND a spear over the shield. That explains a lot. Now, I have to try to complete the messions again. Thanks again.

I got a question about how this guide is set up. When the guide says something like "Q. Signs and Portents -> Jokanur Diggings", is Jokanur Diggings where you find the quest?

Palawa should be just outside of the entrance to Remains of Sahlahja.

I am stuck in two missions: Ghost Reconnaissance and The Lone Raider. In Ghost Reconnaissance I cant seem to knell down to complete the mission. and in The Lone Raider I cant seem to get close enough to kill the Cosair. Any help will be thankful.
