Saga of the Cardinal
Saga of the Cardinal is a one-time, solo quest in Lineage 2 BoHPTS for characters of level 76+. It starts with Hollint in Town of Oren.
Hollint asks you to verify whether or not the one claiming to be the Saint of Light in the Town of Goddard is authentic.
Saga of the Cardinal walkthrough
The quest for the third profession, Saga of the Cardinal (Succession to the Legend Cardinal): Bishop becomes Cardinal.
Allies and the first amulet
Town of Oren. Find High Priest Hollint in the temple and take the quest.
The quest Saga of the Cardinal (Succession to the Legend Cardinal), the third profession for the bishop, is taken on reaching level 76 in the town of Oren from High Priest Hollint (he stands in the temple of Oren).
Town of Goddard. Talk to Saint of Light Agnes.
From him we go to Goddard; from the gatekeeper we go down into the rightmost passage, and on the left side of the stairs stands Saint of Light Agnes, with a bunch of little beggars running around her.
Hot Springs (teleport from Town of Goddard). Talk to Chef Duncan.
The little beggars have to be fed with something, so Agnes sends us for yummies to the Hot Springs to Chef Duncan on the central glade. And as usual, he will give us nothing until we bring him the Ice Crystal. I hope that by this moment you have already done the quest The Finest Ingredients and the crystal is in your quest inventory. If so, we talk to Duncan again; if not, we go to get the crystal.
Talk to Chef Duncan again. You receive:
Offering.Town of Goddard. Return to Saint of Light Agnes. You receive:
Resonance Amulet - 1.In the end we exchange the Ice Crystal for food and return to Agnes. She gives the first resonance amulet, which has to be carried to the first tablet.
First three tablets
Plains of Glory. Talk to Tablet of Vision.
The first tablet is the same for all classes, and it stands between Oren and Aden, not far from the Tower of Insolence. So we teleport to the Tower of Insolence and, without entering the tower, run towards the tablet (I usually leave a cat by this tablet so as not to run far).
Monastery of Silence (teleport from Town of Goddard). Hunt Guardian of Forbidden Knowledge (lv. 76) until you have:
Resonance Amulet - 2.We activate the tablet and learn that the second resonance amulet and the second tablet are in the Valley of Saints, and the amulet itself has to be knocked out of the angels that circle round the tablet in great numbers. The amulet drops from the last angel (that is the rule on PTS servers; on Java ones it drops from the 4th mob). You may be in a party while doing it, and you may be healed. In general all the professions are sent to the Valley of Saints, but there are several tablets and groups of angels there; which of them you need is shown on the map. The angels stand below, in deep pits. For the bishops the second tablet stands at the very end of the location; it is quicker to run to it from Schuttgart, from the Frozen Labyrinth. We beat all the mobs Guardian of Forbidden Knowledge (it is advisable to dress and buff as a warrior, because the mobs hit hard); the resonance amulet drops from the last one.
Talk to Tablet of Vision.
We talk to the second tablet, and it tells us that at the third tablet a monster awaits you; by defeating it you get the next amulet. The third tablet of the bishops is next to the Border Outpost: we teleport to the location Ancient Battleground and run through the Border Outpost to the mark on the map.
Varka Silenos Barracks (teleport from Town of Goddard). Talk to Tablet of Vision.
Kill Fallen Angel Haures (lv. 76) to get:
Resonance Amulet - 3.Out of the third tablet climbs the quest mob Fallen Angel Haures, which has to be beaten. When you took the profession quest, a little book dropped into your inventory; if you click on it, it opens, and in it is written how to defeat this mob. For the bishops it says there that the mob has minions, which have to be put to sleep, while the mob itself is to be beaten with holy magic, because it is undead. Well, who knows: the last time I did the quest the mob had no minions; I put it to sleep, cast Turn Undead twice (the lethal did not go through) and finished it off with Might of Heaven. That is all.
Return to Tablet of Vision.
The next amulet drops from the mob, we activate the tablet and return to Goddard, only not to Agnes but to the temple of Goddard: there, to the left of the head priest, stands Priest Bastian. He is the one we go to.
Divine Stone and the fourth tablet
Town of Goddard. Find Priest Bastian in the Mages Guild.
He needs the Divine Stone of Wisdom. If you did the quests in Varka or Ketra beforehand, the little stone is already with you; if not, you will have to go and do them: first get the second level of the alliance with Ketra or Varka (Alliance with Ketra Orcs or Alliance with Varka Silenos), and then, depending on whether you chose the alliance with the orcs or with the goats, the quest for the Divine Stone of Wisdom: Magical Power of Fire or Magical Power of Water. In short, in the end you must have the Divine Stone of Wisdom in your inventory (the ordinary one). Bastian asks where you will go to get the little stone, to Ketra or to Varka; you can choose any answer, it decides nothing: the main thing is that you do the quests and bring the stone, and where exactly from makes no difference to him.
Talk to Priest Bastian again. You receive:
Resonance Amulet - 4.In any case, having got the stone, we give it to Bastian, and in return he gives the fourth amulet. So we have to run to the fourth tablet. It is one for all classes and is next to Ketra; there are no mobs on the way, so we teleport to Ketra and run along the road to the left, if you stand facing the location.
Garden of Beasts. Talk to Tablet of Vision.
Halisha's minions and the last tablets
Town of Goddard. Return to Priest Bastian in the Mages Guild.
After the dialogue with the fourth tablet we go to Bastian again; the next task is to beat 700 mobs in the location Shrine of Loyalty, and out of the 701st a quest mob jumps and gives up the amulet. Well, if we do not want to beat so many mobs, he agrees to an alternative, for which the Four Sepulchers have to be passed. Which way you choose depends only on you; I usually beat the mobs.
Shrine of Loyalty. Hunt Grave Scarab (lv. 73), Scavenger Scarab (lv. 73), Grave Ant (lv. 74), Scavenger Ant (lv. 74), Shrine Knight (lv. 75), Shrine Guard (lv. 75) until you have:
Halisha's Mark ×700.We set off for the Shrine of Loyalty and collect 700 items Halisha's Mark; out of the 701st the Archon of Halisha climbs. The mob is sluggish and drops the next amulet (I beat it down with the Arcana Mace).
Kill Archon of Halisha (lv. 76) to get:
Resonance Amulet - 5.Borderland Fortress. Talk to Tablet of Vision.
Having got the amulet, we set out for the fifth tablet. It is right here, in the Wall of Argos, only it is handier to reach it by returning to Goddard and teleporting to the entrance of the location again. From the teleport point we turn left, run past two glades with deer and run onto a big glade on the left (also with deer). At the far end stands the fifth tablet.
Bayou Fortress. Talk to Tablet of Vision.
The fifth tablet tells you that it remains to get the last, sixth resonance amulet, which is next to the last tablet in the location Forsaken Plains. We talk to the tablet, and nearby appear some little priest, Dawn Witness Franz, and the quest mob Fallen angel Tanakia. We pick at the mob until it soon vanishes, shouting something about swift revenge on you for meddling in what is not your business.
Talk to Tablet of Vision again.
Town of Oren. Return to High Priest Hollint in the temple to complete the quest.
We talk to the NPC, and he hands over the last amulet. We activate the tablet and return to Oren to High Priest Hollint. We get the profession Cardinal, some adena (from 5kk to 50kk, depending on the rates) and the book Secret Book of Giants.
Tips
- Collect
Ice Crystal and 
Divine Stone of Wisdom before you start: both come from side quests, and with them in the bag the saga is one continuous trip. - The marks are counted per character, but monsters of the Shrine of Loyalty die much faster in a party, and several players can collect at the same time.
- Ice Crystal is the reward of the repeatable quest The Finest Ingredients - Part 1, which Jeremy gives at the Hot Springs.
Rewards
- EXP2,299,404
