This guide was a part of Dniem's Requiem : Bloodmyre Walkthrough and FAQ from official forum.All credit to him.
Now begin:
As you enter the game with your new caractere, you start up into the "Temperion Training Camp".
"Temperion" is the name of the first job everyone starts on. Therefore, when you reach Lv. 9 at 100% and complete all the appropriated quests, you will be able to choose your 1st job (depending of your race), but we will take a look at that later.
At the beginning, you will have a small walkthrough of the movement keys and such. It's pretty basic information most of you must be familiar with. When I start a new game, I always check the "Options" to see what I can configure to my preference. I suggest you do the same, an example, would be that you don't like "clicking movement", most of the time I do that by mistake and move somewhere I don't want to, so I usually disable that.
To specify one thing, I'm very thorough in what I tell you to do in my guide. If you come to a crossroad and I tell you to go left, be reassured that I did check what was right and in front for anything important.
Alright, start walking down the path, in the first room take a left. This place is like a small instance for new players, so you won't see any players with different jobs or abilities. Since the mobs respawn fast here and there are only a few players, we are going to spend a few levels in here. In the next room, you will find Dummy Goblins and Toadtaurus. Practice your fighting skills by kill those for a while.
When you reach Lv.3, please move north to the next room and take a quick left and then right in the next room. By now you should be able to see a npc called "Temperion Skill Master". To specify here, the Temperion's skill points cannot be transfered to the 1st job and all Temperion skills are lost when you change job, so better use them now to help you level up faster. At the Tempiron Skill Trainer, please train for "Good Luck", "Vigorous Slash", "Intensification" and "Double Slash". Once that's done, please press "K" and move your newly acquired skills into your quick slots.
Once that's done, we go back to the previous room and keep grinding on Lv.2 Toadtaurus and Khayentou TR until we reach Lv.7 in the training ground, I'm a strong believer in quantity over quality in these sort of games. More killing means more loot, less down time resting and more fun. So I suggest you to stay in here until Lv. 7 and then move on outside, and you will have quite a few quests to do that will boost you up to Lv. 10 for your first job. So stay in here and keep killing Lv.2-3 monsters until reaching Lv.7 and then move on to the next step. (If you are in a crowded room, don't be afraid to move to another one and see if there are less people in those.)
Congratulation, now you should be Lv.7 and ready to move into the outside world. All depending where you end up while grinding your first 7 levels,you have to be further into and behind the first Skill Master we encounter, so please proceed into the dungeon deeper towards the exit. If you get disoriented as to where to go, just open your map by pressing "M" and head for the NW corner of the training ground. On your way out, you will encounter another skill master, purchase any other Temperion skills you can, since you won't keep any of them or the saved skill points once you change your job.
Just before you exit the training grounds, you can acquire your first quest named "The Very First Bit of Advice" by talking to Harta. I just want you to notice your minimap, the small yellow circle dot usually mean that there's a NPC nearby to whom you can talk which will give you and allow you to drop a quets. Now get your quest and walk ahead, out of dungeon.
World - Crescent -------------------------
*Reminder* Please make sure you read the Tip Section at the end of this guide there are some useful information in there to make you level up faster and save/make more money.
Alright, we are outside. After the training ground is complete, players get thrown in random places all around Rondel which is the first main village. Wherever you are, please start moving towards Rondel while doing some quick killing on Lv. 2-4 monsters in your path just with special ability and let your MP regen while running.
Rondel ------- You will enter Rondel either from the West or East, regardless from where, head toward the center of the village's map to the Temperion Skill Master.
Now that we are in town, there are alot of new things to talk about. Around the Skill Master, you can see on your minimap that you have several quests to accept around you. First you will talk to Loson the Accessory Dealer and accept "Small Gift(1)" and "Wingrider".
Talk to the Skill Master and turn in "The Very First Bit of Advice" and accept "Temperion's Way(1)" and turn it right back in. Accept "Temperion's Way(2)". Just behind you, talk to Lima the Bank Clerk and accept "Merice Bank's Gift" and turn it right back in for your additional bag. After you are done doing all this, you should have 2 empty bags and 3 quests. Head north toward the house and you will come across a "Transporter" which is mainly just a mailbox for messages and item delivery, will come in handy when you will be using the AH (Auction House) later on.
Enter the house and talk to Alosa the "Agent" or usually refered to the "Scroll Lady". There are several of those NPCs around the game and they all sell scroll quests which are basically missions you need to complete for NPCs. There are alot of scroll quests to do from Lv.4 all the way to... I don't know where they stop but there are many, usually all level specific so you can't jump ahead and do those of higher level, but you are still allowed to buy them and carry them on you. So for now we will buy those from Lv.4 to 9.
Once that's done, open your bag and use all the Lv.4-5-6 scrolls. After you are done you should have 5 scroll quests and 2 extra scrolls in your bags. (5 scroll quests is the maximum you can have at one time in your quest log). Now head back outside to the crossroad and take a quick left towards the east village's exit.
World - Rondel Basin --------------------- From now on I will guide you where to go to complete the quests in the fastest possible sequence. Open your map and when you move your cursor around it, at the lower right you can notice a N: XXXX and S: XXXX so we will be using those coordinate tools to guide our way around. Once you get out of the village, we will be heading east towards N1985/S545 and kill any Reindeer / Paleo / Ice Crayfish on the way, once you get to that point I told you, start killing Young Gropie but be careful because they do quite a bit more damage than the other monsters around. Keep killing all those until you complete "High Quality Crafting Material", "Leather Craftman's Request", "Forest Protection" and "Small Gift(1)". Before leaving this place you should be at least 80% into Lv.7. Once the 4 quests are completed and you got your 80% exp done, head back to Rondel.
Rondel ------- Talk to Loson and drop "Small Gift(1)" and accept "Small Gift(2)". Across the street to Theorbo, drop "Temperion's Way(2)" and accept "Temperion's Way(3)". Head north to the Scroll lady and drop the completed quests. Exit the house and head south across town to the forge, once inside talk to Rochelle and drop "Small Gift(2)" and accept "Small Gift(3)". You should be Lv.8 by now, so open your bag and use the Lv.8 scroll. Make sure all your bags are empty of junks and head out for the east exit.
World - Rondel Basin --------------------- Outside to your left, you will come across "Broken Relic" on the ground, get very close to them and right click on them to gather. After you gathered all 4 relics, head back inside Rondel.
Rondel ------- At the crossroad, drop "Temperion's Way (3)" and accept "Temperion's Way(4)" then head west inside the village to the NW corner. Get inside the last house and talk to Berg to drop "Temperion's Way(4)" and accept "Temperion's Way(5)". After this is done, head back all the way east out of the village.
South Bivouac -------------- Open your map and start heading to South Bivouac NE of Rondel, so just follow the road and feel free to kill extra mobs on the way there with special attacks.
In South Bivouac, you will probably first notice a big red hologram, this is the spawn point for people who die. Just beside it, is Chrion, talk to him to accept "3 Specimens(1)". Just beside him is Ka'af, talk to him to drop "Temperion's Way(5)" and accept "Temperion's Way(6)".
At the far back beside the platform is Barko, talk to him to drop "Wingrider". From this platform you can talk to "Wingrider Engineer" and pay a small fee to travel to other Wingriders platform. You can see all the places you can go by opening your map and looking around it for small blue dots. So on the Crescent map, you can go to South Bivouac, North Bivouac, Crescent Dead Pit, Eastern Lumbering Site and West Lighthouse, but for now we will remain in South Bivouac.
World - Fridha Snowfields -------------------------- Outside of South Bivouac, head NW by the road and then West into the field of Incurse and Pez. Kill those 2 until you complete those 4 quests involving them. Those might prove more of a challenge to kill, just make sure to rest in between fights. Dying and running back is really time consuming when trying to level up and advance as fast as possible, so making sure to minimize the possibilities of dying will greatly help.
When you are done with the quests involving Incurse and Pez, make sure you are above 80% exp. into Lv.8, if you aren't by the time you finish killing Pez and Incurse, I suggest you to go south of South Bivouac and kill lower level mobs there until you reach 80%. Once you have 80%, go to South Bivouac, drop "3 Specimens(1)" and accept "3 Specimens(2)". At the Scroll Lady, drop your 2 quests there, you should be Lv.9 now, if you aren't kill monsters on your way back to Rondel, also use your Lv.9 Scroll in your bag.
Rondel ------- At the crossroad, Ropet will offer you a quest, so accept "Temperion's Qualification(1)".
Go south of there into the forge and drop "Small Gift(3)" at Rochelle and accept "Small Gift(Finale)". Go back to Loson and drop "Small Gift(Finale)", also make sure to clear your bags. After that, head NW into the last house and talk to Berg to drop "Temperion's Way(6)" and accept "Temperion's Way(Finale)".
Exit the house and on your map notice the other quest giver in the next house, head inside and accept "Vestiges of the Past(1)" from Halons. Exit the house, by now you should have encountered Thelma walking around the city, if you haven't, go from here to the SW part of Rondel and you will find her. Turn in "Temperion's Qualification(1)" and accept "Temperion's Qualification(2)". After you found and talked to Thelma, head back into the village's crossroad and talk to Theorbo and turn in "Temperion's Way(Finale)". Now head outside and make your way to South Bivouac.
South Bivouac -------------- Talk to Ka'af to turn in "Vestige of the Past(1)" and accept "Vestige of the Past(2)". Close by, talk to Theophile and turn in "Temperion's Qualification(2)" and accept "Temperion's Qualification(3)".
Fridha Snowfields ------------------ Head north towards N1905/S985 and you will find a Stone Crusher there. He's a quest target for your job quest change, he's pretty tough, but you should be able to kill him by yourself if you are full HP/MP with a few "Vital Waters". Once he's dead, head back to South Bivouac and turn in "Temperion's Qualification(3)" and accept "Temperion's Qualification(4)".
After this, you need to be over 93% before returning to Rondel.
Rondel ------- At the crossroad, talk to Ropet to turn in "Temperion's Qualification(4)" and accept "Temperion's Qualification(Finale)". Turn around and turn it in to Theorbo and..
***!!CONGRATULATION!!***
You just complete your job quest chain.
Talk back to him and choose your job you want. If you need a refresh about which job classes are available to you, please refer to the "Races and Classes" section of this guide.
Now that you choose your new job, talk to the skill trainer and choose your next skills and I suggest you to "KNOW" where you are going with your build. I have no such information, as of now, that skill reset will be available, so just to be safe, let's expect not.
After you are done with deciding your first skills and abilities, turn around to the bank lady and accept "Heavy Load". Go to the forge, talk to Tentus and accept "Fridha Mine(1)".
Head NW to talk to Berg but on the way you will cross the DNA Engineer. Refer to my "D.N.A." explanation under the "Game Information" section.
Keep going NW to Berg and turn in "Heavy Load" to get your 3rd bag. Afer all this, you should be about 10% into Lv.10 already and on your way to South Bivouac.
Fridha Snowfields ------------------ Once you reach South Bivouac, make your way to the Incurse you fought earlier, but just a bit more to the north and you will encounter the Mini Golem. All depending where you fight them and how fast you want to complete those quests, you might want to consider getting a party because those can call for help from the other Mini Golem around them, so it can get tricky if you are not careful.
After you are done with Mini Golem, you also need Gentle Pez from this area, so start killing those afterwards as well. When you got all the Pez you need, you must be at least 80% to your next level. So if you aren't already, go back to kill the Incurse in the field just south of where you are, once that's done, head back to South Bivouac.
South Bivouac -------------- Talk to Chrion and turn in "Specimens(2)" and accept "Specimens(3)". At the Scroll Lady, turn in "Moving Rocks" and purchase the scrolls for Lv.11 and 12.
After, use your Return spell to get back to Rondel.
Rondel ------- Head at the forge in the SE of the village and turn in "Fridha Mine(1)" and accept "Fridha Mine(2)", head back to South Bivouac.
South Bivouac -------------- Talk to Toren and turn in "Fridha Mine(2)" and accept "Fridha Mine(3)".
Fridha Mine ------------ Head NW to the Fridha Mine. Follow the road West and then South into the pit. You will find plenty of Stonemata here for those 3 quests involving them (N1510/S890). Once done, head back to South Bivouac.
South Bivouac -------------- Turn in "Vestige of the Past(2)" at the entrance and accept "Vestige of the Past(3)".
At Chrion, turn in "Specimens(Finale)" and at Toren, turn in "Fridha Mine(3)" and accept "Fridha Mine(Finale)".
The quest "Fridha Mine(Finale" is a instance quest, if you decide to do it or not is up to you. I do it if I can, if I don't I'll have to grind more with killing only. If you got a party to go there, to enter the instance, you need to talk to the NPC on top of the pit.
Now, time to get those Scroll quests done. Talk to the Wingrider Engineer and fly to Ellba Forest.
Eastern Lumbering Site ----------------------- Once you land, head south into the field across the road and kill Ziebalt for "Merchant Guild's Request" (N1975/S1460).
Forgotten Port --------------- After that quest is done, take the road north to the Forgotten Port at N2048/S1860 and collect the Suspicious Containers on the ground as well as killing Blakchand Fighters for those 2 quests, hopefully you will have other players around to party with because this zone can really be hard if you try to solo it.
Still in the Forgotten Port, if you go deeper in you will encounter Alongo and accept "Anguished Smuggler(1)".
Once you gathered all the containers and killed all the Fighters you need, head back south and then west towards Caput Sawmill.
Caput Sawmill -------------- Talk to the smugglers to sell you extra stuff you don't need. Once that's done, head back north around N1725/S1715 you will encounter Mutant Sea Lions (they only come out during day time only, so if it's night, just grind on the Ziebalt until the day starts).
After you finished killing them off for your quest, by now you should be really close to Lv.12 so grind monsters until you are then take the road north, up to the Lighthouse. Right in front of it, you will find the Abandoned Box. Take it and after that, use your Return Spell.
Rondel ------- While running inside, use your 2 Lv.12 scrolls. Get new skills at the Skill Master and head north to the Scroll lady, drop your 3 quests and buy the Lv.14 scrolls for later. Head back to South Bivouac.
*Note* You just got your first Nightmare quest. Like I mentionned earlier in the "Game Information" section, NM time is between 23:00 and 02:00 in-game time, so if you are close to the beginning of that time, make sure to use the Local Chat to find a group to do the quest. Remember where you found the Stonemata? That's where the Nephas spawn at NM time. So since it's time specific, I cannot tell you to do this quest in a particular order, same with all other NM quests, so do it whenever you can.
South Bivouac -------------- Turn in "Vestige of the Past(3)" and accept "Vestige of the Past(4)" from Ka'af. Take the Wingrider to North Bivouac.
North Bivouac -------------- Once you land, get inside the village and talk to Palantie to turn in "Vestige of the Past(4)" and accept "Vestige of the Past(Finale)". Take the Wingrider again, this time fly to Ellba Forest.
Eastern Lumbering Site ----------------------- After landing, head north towards the Forgotten Port and talk to Alondo to drop "Anguished Smuggler(1)" and accept "Anguished Smuggler(2)". Make your way back to the sawmill west of here.
Caput Sawmill -------------- Talk to Heyra and turn in "Anguished Smuggler(2)" then accept "Anguished Smuggler(3)".
While you are by the sawmill, look around for Olgross to kill for "Forgotten Port". Once you are done head back to the port and talk to Alondo again. Turn in "Anguished Smuggler(3)" and accept "Anguished Smuggler(4)".
Just stay around and kill Blackhand Figherts until we get all 8 Red Masks. Once you get all your masks, turn in "Anguished Smuggler(F4)" to Alondo and accept "Anguished Smuggler(Finale)".
Now we need to go to the south camp called Blackhand Debouchment, so get out of the Forgotten Port and follow the road south.
*Note* You might have gotten Lv.13 by now or are very close to it. (I want to mention that I didn't count the experience gained by doing the NM quest and instance quest so you might be even further ahead.)
Blackhand Debouchement ----------------------- **Make sure to read the whole paragraph here** There's gonna be a little side road into Debouchment so just take it, once again, this place is crowded with fighters, if there is other players nearby make sure to send them a tell to make it easier. If you are soloing, rush in and once you get to the village, take a quick left all the way by the cliff and they should stop following you. Then Vailo just walks around in the middle of the village, so you just need to pull him to the side and it's an easy kill.
Once that's done, exit the camp the same way you came in, head back north to the Forgotten Port. Drop the quest "Anguished Smuggler(Finale)" at Alondo.
Now you need to get to Lv.14 here, so either stay in the port killing Blackhand Fighters or go south a bit and kill Ziebalts and Dogs, your choice.
Once that's done, use your Return to get back to Rondel.
Rondel ------- Go NW and accept "The Hidden(1)" from Halons. Then head north to the Scroll lady, turn in quest, use Lv.14 scrolls and buy Lv.15 scroll. Now make your way to South Bivouac.
South Bivouac -------------- Talk to Bahr and accept "Missing Child(1)". Fly to North Bivouac.
North Bivouac -------------- Accept "Pure Ice(1)" from Brion, exit north of the village and look around for Ice Boxes, gather 6 of them and come back to drop "Pure Ice(1)" and accept "Pure Ice(2)".
Turn around and walk over to Peros and turn in "Pure Ice(2)" then accept "Pure Ice(3)". Go back to Brion and turn in "Pure Ice(3)" and accept "Pure Ice(4)".
Once you are done with this, go outside, don't kill the Nis here because they don't give exp, we will get them somewhere else. Follow the path north until you come across a branch to the right into the Dogtooth Crevasse. Keep walking on the path to the east and eventually on the other side you will see a yellow dot on your map, click on the Dead Man and turn in "Missing Child(1)" and accept "Missing Child(2)".
Now keep going east until you reach the main path going back to South Bivouac. Once there, talk to Bahr and turn in "Missing Child(2)" and accept "Missing Child(3)". Fly to Ellba Forest.
Eastern Lumbering Site ----------------------- Make your way to the Sawmill while killing any Nis you see on your way there. Inside the camp, talk to Verik and turn in "The Hidden(1)" and accept "The Hidden(2)".
Close by, talk to Heyra and turn in "Missing Child(3)" and accept "Missing Child(4)". Turn around, talk to Mael to turn in "Missing Child(4)" and accept "Missing Child(5)". Turn around, talk to Heyra to turn in "Missing Child(5)" and accept "Missing Child(6)".
Once all that's done, exit the camp and head north to kill any Nis you encounter until your 2 quests are completed.
After you completed those 2 quests, head back to the Sawmill and turn in "The Hidden(2)" at Verik then accept "The Hidden(3)". Just down the road, talk to Fleon and turn in "The Hidden(3)" then accept "The Hidden(4)". Go back to Verik, turn in "The Hidden(4)" and accept "The Hidden(5)".
Now you need to kill Nis(again) and Krebiz which are around North Bivouac.
North Bivouac -------------- From Sawmill head SW towards North Bivouac and on the way, you will encounter a few Nis so kill them while being on your way there.
Once you get to North Bivouac, you can go around it to the SW of it, there are more Krebiz over there.
After you killed all those you need for your quest (and all the remaining Nis as well) head back inside North Bivouac and fly to Ellba Forest.
Eastern Lumbering Site ----------------------- After landing, head northing into the port, just beside Alondo there's LeMon, turn in "Missing Child(6)" and accept "Missing Child(7)".
Head back south and then west towards Sawmill. (By now you should be Lv.15 or very close to it. If you aren't grind on the Blackhand Fighters 'til you are.)
Caput Sawmill -------------- Talk to Verik to turn in "The Hidden(5)" and accept "The Hidden(6)".
Then talk to Heyra and turn in "Missing Child(7)". Turn around and talk to Mael and accept "Missing Child(8)".
Use your Return to get back to Rondel.
Rondel ------- Head NW to talk to Berg to get your "Heavy Load(2)" quest for the next bag. Turn in quest at the Scroll lady. Head for South Bivouac.
South Bivouac -------------- Fly to North Bivouac.
North Bivouac -------------- Talk to Peros and turn in "The Hidden(6)" and accept "The Hidden(7)". Go outside the village and follow the road north. Just a little after you pass the right turn to the Dogtooth Crevasse, you should encounter Karin so then turn in "Missing Child(8)" and accept "Missing Child(9)". (Sometimes she's walking around so just kill Krebiz while you wait for her to come back.)
This is an escort quest and the Nis Guard will attack her on sight when she gets too close, so be ready.
Shouldn't be much of a problem to complete, once she get inside the village she will walk up to Palantie and turn in "Missing Child(9)" and accept "Missing Child(Finale)".
Head back outside the village and kill Krebiz until your quest is complete. Once over, head back inside the village and fly to South Bivouac.
South Bivouac -------------- Head over to the Scroll lady, turn in quest and unload junk. Talk to Bahr and turn in "Missing Child(Finale)". Fly to Ellba Forest.
Eastern Lumbering Site ----------------------- Head south to your usual Ziebalt spot and start killing for "Heavy Load(2)". Once that's over with, head over to the Sawmill.
Caput Sawmill -------------- Talk to Verik and turn in "The Hidden(7)" and accept "The Hidden(8)". Turn around, move to Fleon and turn in "The Hidden(8)" and accept "The Hidden(9)".
Alright, if you aren't 16 by now you certainly are very close, so grind it off and then use your Return to go back to Rondel.
Rondel ------- Head to the NW and turn in "Heavy Load(2)" at Berg. Head out to South Bivouac then fly to North Bivouac.
North Bivouac -------------- Talk to Wooter and accept "Insufficient Supply(1)" then fly back to South Bivouac.
Turn in "Insufficient Supply(1)" at Toren, accept "Insufficient Supply(2)" and fly back to North Bivouac.
Talk back to Wooter and turn in "Insufficient Supply(2)", accept "Insufficient Supply(3)".
Now fly to a new zone, Crescent Dead Pit in the SW of the map.
Crescent Dead Pit ------------------ Take the road going east and north towards Valdes and Memorial Tower. Careful on the road for Libeshals, if you just keep on running you should be alright. Just when the road take a massive curve north, you should see a group of Gropies there and around.
Kill them for the quest, once you are done, keep moving north on the road. Once you get to the fork to turn left to go to Valdes, keep going north just a bit further and pay attention to your mini map.
When you get close the loop's end, you will see the "Wooden Grave Marker", click it and turn in "The Hidden(9)" and accept "The Hidden(Finale)". Turn around and up the ramp to Valdes Village.
Valdes ------- Valdes is an instanced city, so when you try to Local chat with other players, notice that you can only talk with those "inside" the city. So let's say you want to find a group, better do it outside.
Once inside Valdes, make your way west and at the opening go north then west again by the forge.
At the end of the corridor, go straight south to the Tavern. Turn in "Pure Ice(4)" and accept "Pure Ice(5)". Also speak with the Scroll Lady, here you can buy some scrolls that you cannot get in Rondel or South Bivouac. So purchase the Lv.16 and the 3 Lv.17 ones. Use your Return to go back to Rondel.
Rondel ------- Go talk to the Scroll Lady and buy the Lv.18 scroll and keep it for later. (Our visit to Rondel are now counted.)
After that, make your way to South Bivouac. Fly to North Bivouac.
North Bivouac -------------- Talk to Brion and turn in "Pure Ice(5)" and accept "Pure Ice(Finale)". Talk to Wooter to turn in "Insufficient Supply(3)" and accept "Insufficient Supply(Finale)". Exit the village, go north a bit and kill Giant Ice Crayfish until the quest is completed, then go back to North Bivouac to turn in "Pure Ice(Finale)".
Fly to South Bivouac. Talk to Toren, turn in "Insufficient Supply(Finale)".
Fly to Ellba Forest.
Eastern Lumbering Site ----------------------- Run to the Sawmill. Talk to Fleon and turn in "The Hidden(Finale)". If you aren't Lv.17 by now, I want you to grind here until you are.
Once you get Lv.17, run back to the flight platform at the Lumbering Site. Use your 3 scrolls. Fly to Crescent Dead Pit and run to Valdes.
Valdes ------- Head back to the tavern. Talk to Flud and accept "Memorial Tower(1)". Exit the Tavern and head NW into the Official Residence and talk to Bazet to turn in "Memorial Tower(1)" then accept "Memorial Tower(2)". On the way back to the Tavern, just go a bit further south to the Warp Gate, set your Return location to Valdes.
Run back to the Tavern and turn in "Memorial Tower(2)" at Flud and accept "Memorial Tower(3)". Run to the NE corner of Valdes, into the Weapon shop to talk to Ellien to turn in "Memorial Tower(3)" and accept "Memorial Tower(4)". Exit Valdes.
Crescent Dead Pit ------------------ Now, remember where we kill Gropies earlier to the south of Valdes, go back there. We need Gropies, Ion Golems and Pez which are all around here, happy killing. It will take a little while but this will be a great experience gain. Make sure you are 80% into Lv.17 before going back. Once you are done completing all 4 quests, use your Return back to Valdes.
Valdes ------- Run to the tavern and drop the 3 quests, make sure to use your Lv.18 scroll you bought earlier.
Run to the Weapon/Armor Shop and turn "Memorial Tower(4)" to Ellien and accept "Memorial Tower(5)". Exit Valdes to go back where we just killed the Ion Golems.
Get your 8 Ion Golems kill there and run back to Valdes to Ellien to drop "Memorial Tower(5)" and accept "Memorial Tower(Finale)". Now head for the tavern and talk to Flud to turn in "Memorial Tower(Finale)". Exit Valdes.
---
Now, I'm usually around 20-30% into Lv.18 at this point, and sincerely, right now there are no other quests you can do, beside your Nightmare quest and the one from Fridha Mine if you didn't do it yet.
So yep! We got to grind about 70-80% by killing only. There are a few places where you can go to, back south of Valdes for Ion Golems and Gropies, but my favorite is north of the Memorial Tower around N550/S1735 for Libeshal.
---
Valdes ------- Once you get Lv.19, use your Return to go back to Valdes. Head to the Weapon Shop and talke to Holen, accept "Light of the Shrine(1)". Head north to the Xenon Church. Talk to Salen, turn in "Light of the Shrine(1)" and accept "Light in the Shrine(2)". Exit the church, head to the east part of Valdes and then south to the Ioxenic Branch and drop "Light of the Shrine(2)" and accept "Light of the Shrine(3)". Head back NW to the church. Talk to Salen to drop "Light of the Shrine(3)" and accept "Light of the Shrine(4)". Exit Valdes.
Memorial Tower --------------- Head to the Memorial Tower, there are a few Ion Golems around it and then you can go further north back to the Libeshal. Or you can go south at the Ion Golems there and grind on whatever you like down there, it makes no difference.
Once you are done killing the Ion Golems for the quest, you need to grind to 90% into Lv.19 and then use your Return to get back to Valdes.
Valdes ------- Head north to the church and talk to Salen to drop "Light of the Shrine(4)" and accept "Light of the Shrine(Finale)".
Go to the Ioxenic Branch and drop "Light of the Shrine(Finale)".
***!!Congratulation!!***
You are now Lv.20!
Run to the Weapon Shop, talk to Holen and accept "Very Special Gift(1)". Head to the tavern, buy the Lv.20 scroll from the lady and use it. Head out of Valdes, north or south, which every you prefer, to kill Libeshals.
---
Once you are done with your 2 quests, use your Return back to Valdes. Turn in quest at the Scroll lady and then run to the Weapon Shop. Talk to Holen and turn in "Very Special Gift(1)" and accept "Very Special Gift(2)". Exit the shop and run towards the Ioxenic Branch and you should come across Kalophe. Talk to her and turn in "Very Special Gift(2)" and accept "Very Special Gift(3)". Exit Valdes and go south to the Pez, get your kill count for the quest. Before following with the next step, make sure you are at least 80% into Lv.20
---

Iness Plains ------------- Go north where the Libeshals are, but just a bit further then that. You should be able to see by now some big redlike monsters called Big Sprigan and there are normal Sprigan.

Meanwhile, you also have a NM quest to complete, make sure to prepare early and try to find a group to kill them, it shouldn't be too hard. Return to Valdes, whenever "The Northern Threat(1)" is complete and turn it in at Kemon in the forge and accept "The Northern Threat(2)".

Exit North Bivouac, and run NW to the Memorial Tower, kill Ion Golems, until the quest is complete, then run back to North Bivouac. Talk to Peros, turn in "Forgotten Relics(5)" and accept "Forgotten Relics(6)".
---
Alright everyone, make sure all your NM quests here are completed, because we are leaving Crescent and on our way to Parness.

Use your Return back to Valdes. Now right where you stand, talk to Kalin and choose to travel to Nova Lux (Parness).
---
Welcome to Nova Lux. Talk to Veling standing nearby, and set your Return here. Also nearby, there's Popain, talk to her and accept "Lost Bag(1)". Head out of the Warp Gate SE into the inner circle of the Plaza of Tolerance. Talk to Nelos and turn in "Forgotten Relics(6) and accept "Forgotten Relics(7)". There is also a Skill Master nearby. DNA Engineer is NE of the Plaza of Tolerance. Bank and AH is in the east building in the Plaza of Tolerance aswell as a Transporter.
The grocery shop is just by the Mercy Street entrance. The forge and armor shop is NW in the Mercy Street. There's also another forge, SE in the Mercy Street. The Scroll lady is east in the Mercy Street, inside the house by the Transporter.
*Note* During night time in Mercy Street, you can find some prostitutes for a decent price... If you see Selina, tell her Dniem sent you, she's my favorite.
You can either exit Nova Lux from the SW or the East of Mercy Street. For now we are gonna get out from the East. Make sure to stop at the Scroll lady to buy the 2 Lv.23 scrolls.
Lux Plains ----------- Just take a quick look at the map to look around. Head south, you will come across the Bandersnatch, we won't kill them yet. Keep going south, and on your right you will see a small cluster of Koont Scouts, kill those for "Subversive Movement".
After that, keep on the road to the SE, past the bridge. Look out on your right side, you will see small cluster of trees. Past the first one, and on the 2nd there are 3 Knoots together. You should easily be able to solo these or with a friend, it's even better. Make sure you are at least 85% into Lv.23 Once you completed your 2 other quests, use your Return to Nova Lux.
Nova Lux --------- Talk to Popain and turn in "Lost Bag(1)" and accept "Lost Bag(2)". Walk to the inner ring of the Plaza and talk to Nelos to turn in "Forgotten Relics(7)" and accept "Forgotten Relics(8)". Head back to the Warp Gate and talk to Sheila, turn in "Forgotten Relics(8)". Accept "Forgotten Relics(9)" and head back to Nelos, turn it in and accept "Forgotten Relics(10)", talk to him again and turn it back in. Finally, accept "Forgotten Relics(11)".
Head back into the Warp Gate, go back to Valdes.
Valdes ------- Go straight north towards the Temperion Master, Leopert and accept "Component Delivery(1)". Run to the Ioxenic Branch, talk to Karen and turn in "Component Delivery(1)", accept "Component Delivery(2)".
Head back to Leopert in the NW of Valdes and turn in "Component Delivery(2)". Accept "Component Delivery(3)". Run to the Warp Gate and go back to Nova Lux.
Nova Lux --------- Head to the center of the Plaza and talk to Ktlian to turn in "Component Delivery(3) and accept "Component Delivery(Finale)". Head to the Warp Gate and turn in "Component Delivery(Finale)" to Popain.
Run to the Scroll lady and turn in your quest, exit Nova Lux by the east gate.
Lux Plains ----------- For now, your main priority is to find a group to go to the "Ruins of Lament" for your Possession quest chain. Shout in the Local Chat that you need a group to go there and eventually you will find one. Make sure you get the quest done before you leave.
While you find a group for the Ruins of Lament, we are gonna go for the Koont Chief, run south past the bridge and take the road going west over to the other mountain's side. Head for N2440/S360 and you should find him there. Kill him to complete the quest.
Return to Nova Lux and talk to Popain and turn in "Lost Bag(2)" and accept "Lost Bag(3)".
---
After you have completed your quest in the Ruins of Lament, use your Return to get back to Nova Lux. Then run to the Plaza and talk to Nelos. Turn in "Forgotten Relics(11)" and accept "Forgotten Relics(12)".
Exit Nova Lux by the East gate, use the flight path to Arnal Reservoir and then Chalt Village.
Find Valen around the platform and turn in "Forgotten Relics(12)" and accept "Forgotten Relics(Finale)".
Use your Return or fly back to Nova Lux. Either way you need to enter Nova Lux exit by the SW gate.
Start killing the Bandersnatch here and you will get a "Red Tooth" scroll Lv.24
Red Tooth is a Lv.35 quest mob that walks by the flight path just down the hill from where you currently are. It might be really difficult to do this on your own, so if there is someone around ask for their help.
Once all your 3 quests are completed, head back inside.
Head to the Plaza and turn the quest to Jebel. Congratulation, you know only need Lv.25 in order to use your Possession. For more information, please refer to the Possession section.
By now you should be Lv.25 or really close to it, if you aren't go grind it off outside of Nova Lux or back in Crescent w/e you prefer. Once it's done, get back to Nova Lux and continue with the next step.
---
Nova Lux --------- Now you are Lv.25, head to the center of the Plaza and talk to Ktlian and accept "Old Sheath(1)". Beside him is Tolos, talk to him and accept "Suspicion(1)".
Run NE of the Plaza, into in Ioxenic Department and talk to Kamyola, turn in "Suspicion(1)" and accept "Suspicion(2)".
Head towards the Mercy Street, once at the gate, take a right and head for the forge. Inside talk to Victor and turn in "Old Sheath(1)" and accept "Old Sheath(2)".
Head for the Scroll lady in the east side of Mercy Street, buy the 2 Lv.25 scrolls and exit Nova Lux by the east gate.
Lux Plains ----------- Head a bit south to the Bandersnatch and kill them for your quest. Once it's done, head back in Nova Lux.
Nova Lux --------- Head to the forge, NW in Mercy Street. Talk to Victor and turn in "Old Sheath(2)" accept "Old Sheath(3)". Exit Nova Lux by the east gate.
Lux Plains ----------- Head south towards the bridge. Once you get to the bridge, we actually need to get to the road below. So jump/run down the hill and try not to fall to your death. Once you land down there, head NE on the road.
To a point you will notice a yellow dot on your map, this is the body of Lynus There should be 3 ghouls around him, so you need to run in, turn in "Suspicion(2)" and accept "Suspicion(3)" as soon as possible and run away.
The way I do this is that I pull them away with a ranged attack, and make them do an arc to cycle around them. when you turn in the quest, they will ask you to choose a reward, so be ready for that. Also ready your Vital Water.
Once you got your "Suspicion(3)", you need to head south on the road and then west, scoop around at the beach and take the road to the east, towards the Lux Plains's flight platform. Sorry for the running around, it will save us time later. Remember to unload your junk with the roaming NPCs.
Now we are at the flight platform in Lux Plains. Not far off is Luke, talk to him and turn in "Suspicion(3)" and accept "Suspicion(4)".
If you look directly south, you will see a ramp going up. You need to get on it and towards it's end is the "Koont Scout Leader" for the scroll quest. So you will need to actually go a bit east then south to get on it, and run to the top to kill him. Once he's dead, jump down and go back to the flight platform.
A bit NE of the platform, there are alot of Mother Basilisk, Young Basilisk and Basilisk around so go there and get your kill count.
Now for "Suspicion(4)", this is gonna be hard to solo, but it can be done with alot of effort and waters.
Take the road east towards the Cyclone Heights and follow it into the Ruined Hateque. (This has to be done during day time.)
Finding the Koont Trooper is definetly not something I would suggest you to do on your own, I really recommend bringing a friend along.
He walks on the road from the Ruined Hatique all the way north and loop around so it might actually take you a while to find him. Once you kill him, you need to return to Luke at the flight platform in the Lux Plains, run back to him.
Once you get there, talk to Luke, turn in "Suspicion(4)" and accept "Suspicion(5)", use your Return back to Nova Lux.
Nova Lux --------- Talk to Popain and turn in "Lost Bag(Finale)". Head to the NW forge in Mercy Street, talk to Victor and turn in "Old Sheath(3)" and accept "Old Sheath(4)". Head to the Scroll lady and turn in your 2 quests and buy the 2 Lv.26 scrolls. Now head for the SE forge in Mercy Street and talk to Nestor and turn in "Old Sheath(4)" and accept "Old Sheath(5)". Take the road west towards the NW forge and on the way you should meet with Malion, turn in "Suspicion(5)" and accept "Suspicion(Finale)". Run to the NW forge and talk to Victor and turn in "Old Sheath(5)" and accept "Old Sheath(Finale)".
Head to the inner circle of the Plaza and talk to Ktlian and turn in "Old Sheath(Finale)". Keep going NE towards the Ioxenic, talk to Kamyola, turn in "Suspicion(Finale)".
If you are not Lv.26 by now, go outside until you are.
