Heart in Search of Power - quest No. 627

Dark work for an amateur: Mysterious Necromancer в Valley of Saints He's crafting a new chimera. He's already tried vampire blood and ogre muscles, now he needs remains of saints - and they lie in the tomb Enfeux, which is sealed. It can be opened with a seal, and the sorcerer will make the seal from beads of submission — the very same ones used to keep the valley's guardians in check. Your task is to collect 300 beads, open the tomb, and bring the necromancer a gem made from the saint's ashes. A repeatable quest for characters. 60+ level without racial restrictions; as a reward, you choose one of five options.

Walkthrough

Talk to the Mysterious Necromancer

The sorcerer stands in Valley of Saints - This is the same NPC through which the storyline runs Sweet Whispers (No. 15). Need a level 60+: To someone weaker, he'll honestly tell them he can't guarantee your safety. Agree to help: "What do you want me to do?"

Collect 300 Beads of Obedience from the Magnificent Ones

Beads drop from the Valley Guardians - monsters with the prefix SplendorEveryone has their own chance, and the spread is noticeable: from 65,9 % у Soul of Splendor until 87,5 % у Wailing of Splendor (The full breakdown is in the note to the item below). The most generous goals are Wailing of Splendor (level 67, 87,5%), Signet of Splendor (level 66, 82,7%) and Shout of Splendor (level 65, 82%), so The higher the level of the monster, the less running: on Whalings, 300 beads equals approximately 345 kills, and on the weakest targets, around 455.

Give the beads and receive the Seal of Light.

Return to the necromancer with 300 beads - he takes everything at once and makes them Seal of Light, the seal of light. It immediately explains that Enfeux is in the very depths of the Valley of the Saints, and the seal disposable: insert it and it will disappear.

Open the Enfeux and take the Gem of Saints

Enfeux — This is a tomb where the bones of saints are kept. Examine it: at the bottom right there is a slot for a seal. Insert it. Seal of Light — the seal dissolves, and in its place remains a ball, similar to the remains of a saint: Gem of SaintsYou can't take anything else from here until you bring a new seal.

Take Gem of Saints to the necromancer. He'll ask you to hand over the remains, and you have the right to answer "Not until I get my reward!" and choose one of five Rewards: Adena or one of four crafting materials with an additional payment (list and amounts are in the block below).

Rewards to choose from

AdenaOption 1 - only Adena× 100

AsofOption 2 - 13 Asofe and another 6,400 adena× 13

ThonsOption 3 - 13 Thons and another 6,400 adena× 13

EnriaOption 4 - 6 Enria and another 13,600 adena× 6

Mold HardenerOption 5 - 3 Mold Hardener and another 17,200 adena× 3

Take exactly one Option 5 - the choice is yours, there is no randomness here. The quest doesn't give any experience or SP at all. If you count by shop price list, the options are almost equal: Asof и Thons give 84,400, Enria — 85 600, Mold Hardener — 86,200, and pure adena — 100 000, that is, nominally it is even more profitable. But Asof, Thons и Enria - key crafting crystals for B-grade items and above, and Mold Hardener goes to the tools for the upper armor, so they usually choose not by the number, but by what is missing for craft.
Nearby, at Hierarch, there's a second farm quest going on for the same monsters - A Dark Twilight (No. 626)Their goals intersect, and the items fall independently, so It's convenient to run both quests simultaneously: one hike through the valley closes two counters at once.
