Nightshade Quests

This page contains a list of Nightshade Quests for level 20+ duskblades and stormbringers, members of the Nightshade race. These quests occur after the player has completed the Celestial Vale and have teleported to the Midlands in Perfect World.

Most quests have a maximum level requirement, meaning that the player may not be able to pick up or turn in certain quests if their level is too high. The player can pursue these quests again when reawakening for the first or second time.

Tips

• If you are a newer, inexperienced player, it is recommended to do these quests to become familiar with your skills and to also receive equipment.
• Most Nightshade quests require the player to complete previous quests beforehand.
• It is very likely you will outlevel many of the quests before you can complete them, especially if you have taken Perfect Questmaster and Lucid Envoy quests.
  • Nightshades have the strictest level requirements for quests compared to other races, making it easier to outlevel quests.
• Pick up as many quests as you can when in each town and village to save time when going out to kill monsters. Some quests may even require killing the same enemies, allowing you to complete quests simultaneously.
• When reaching a new town or village, make sure to unlock the waypoint for it so you can teleport there later. Some towns and villages will unlock waypoints as you reach them, while others will require you to talk to the Teleport Master to unlock them.
• When killing monsters they may drop items that are required for Dragon Quests. Many of these items can also be used to increase your bank's item capacity.
