The Hidden Veins is a repeatable, solo quest in Lineage 2 BoHPTS for characters of level 6–15. It starts with Filaur in Dwarven Village.

Elder Filaur, an expert in the construction and mining business, has learned that Otuk Orcs have recently discovered a long-lost chrysolite mine.

The Hidden Veins walkthrough

The quest The Hidden Veins, for soulshots and adena. Start level: 6. Start location: the dwarven village. Start NPC: Filaur (Filaur). No requirements. Repeatable. Only for dwarves. Reward: soulshots (at the first hand-in) and adena.

  1. Dwarven Village. Find Gray Pillar Member Filaur in the main hall of the village and take the quest.

    A must for everybody! The quest is taken from the sixth level in the elders' house from the NPC Filaur (the far right one from the entrance to the Elder Council); for the quest you have to beat Utuku Orcs, the nearest ones, of the 6th level, stand around the village. If you need only the soulshots and not the adena, as soon as we collect a few Chrysolite Ore we go to the start NPC, and at the first hand-in he gives out no-grade soulshots (the last time I got 6000 soulshots for beginners). After that you may give the quest up, but let it be: we rush about here anyway, a little adena will drip in.

  2. Hunt Utuku Orc (lv. 6), Utuku Orc Grunt (lv. 7), Utuku Orc Archer (lv. 8) until you have: Chrysolite Ore, Torn Map Fragment. Where: Dwarven Village, Western Mining Zone.

    The mobs to hunt are various orcs of the Utuku tribe; the smallest of them are of the sixth and seventh levels, but there are older ones too, I will list them all now. Utuku Orc, lvl 6, are around the village. Utuku Orc Grunt, lvl 7, are on the way to the Abandoned Coal Mines. Utuku Orc Archer, lvl 8, are on the way to the Western Mining Zone. Chrysolite Ore and Torn Map Fragments will drop from them.

  3. Talk to Priestess of the Earth Chichirin. Hand over: Torn Map Fragment ×4. You receive: Hidden Ore Map.

    The map fragments drop very badly, but if you collect 4 pieces, Priestess of the Earth Chichirin (who stands in the house behind the gatekeeper, the house is called the Temple of Maphr) can glue them into the map Hidden Ore Map, for which 500 adena is given. Naturally, the NPC does not accept the Torn Map Fragments themselves.

  4. Return to Gray Pillar Member Filaur in the main hall of the village to complete the quest. Hand over: Chrysolite Ore, Hidden Ore Map.

    And as is usual in all these starting quests for adena, there are rules for handing the items in optimally, to get the maximum amount of adena. Each item costs 5 adena, BUT! when 10 items are handed in, a bonus of 2000 adena is given. And however many items above those 10 you hand in, the bonus is given only once per hand-in, and all the items are still counted at 5 adena. That is, there is no sense in collecting a huge number of items, because whether you hand in ten pieces or a thousand, the bonus is given only once. So it is much more profitable to run to the nearest orcs, collect 10 pieces and run to hand them in at once, getting the bonus every time. A clear example: if you hand in 100 items at once, you get 2000 + 500 = 2500 adena, and if you run and hand in 10 at a time, you get 2050 * 10 = 20500 adena. Is there a difference? There is, and a considerable one.
