Swordsinger class transfer quest: first mark (level 35)

Quest: Trial of the Challenger · reward: Mark of Challenger · given by Kash

The first quest for the second profession for all the melee damage dealers (Bladedancer, Destroyer, Gladiator, Swordsinger, Tyrant and Warlord): Trial of the Challenger. The quest is so simple and quick that it is downright annoying: why does such happiness go to the damage dealers too, why not give it to the Shillien Elder or the Elven Elder. No such luck. Well, never mind, at least somebody got lucky. In this quest we have to be speleologists for a while: visit three caves and one dungeon. No tedious grinding of heaps of mobs. A freebie has arrived.

  1. Town of Dion. Find Kash in the Warriors Guild and take the quest. You receive: Letter of Kash.

    The quest is taken at level 35 from the NPC Kash behind the warriors guild of Dion (in the yard between the warriors guild and the warehouse).

    Where to find Kash: map of Town of Dion
  2. Undine Waterfall. Kill Shyslassys (lv. 36) to get: Broken Key.

    The first quest mob Kash sends us to is called by the strange name Shyslassys (it looks as if somebody among the developers had all his teeth knocked out, and such a name was all he could utter). The quest mob lives in a cave under the waterfall in the location not far from the Swampland (teleport from the dark elven village; the NPC recommends running from the Neutral Zone, but it is much farther from there). We teleport to the Swampland and run to the waterfall. Several NPCs and several quest trees will stand there; we run past them and into the cave under the waterfall, and in the left branch stands the quest mob with its guards. We beat all the mobs; I left this very Shshshslshshsh for last, because after it a chest appears.

    Shyslassys in Lineage 2 C4: Scions of Destiny
  3. Talk to Chest Of Shyslassys. Hand over: Broken Key. You receive: Scroll of Shyslassys.

    In the dialogue with the chest, Chest of Shyslassys, we press the line "use some key" (that line is the one and only there, you will not miss).

  4. Town of Dion. Return to Kash in the Warriors Guild. Hand over: Scroll of Shyslassys.

    Then we return to Kash in Dion.

  5. Giran Castle Town. Find Martien at the north gate.

    Kash sends us to Giran, to the NPC Martien, who stands at the upper right exit from the town.

    Where to find Martien: map of Giran Castle Town
  6. Floran Village. Kill Gorr (lv. 36) to get: Watcher's 1st Eye.

    Martien says that we have to run to the outskirts of Floran, but in fact the next cave is next to the Monster Derby Track, so we teleport from Dion to the Plains of Dion; to the right of the track there will be a mountain, and on its right side there is the entrance to the cave. We go inside and see the quest mobs, among which is the main one, Gorr. We beat them all and get the quest item.

    Gorr in Lineage 2 C4: Scions of Destiny
  7. Giran Castle Town. Return to Martien at the north gate.

    We return to Martien.

  8. Bee Hive (teleport from Town of Dion). Kill Baraham (lv. 36) to get: Watcher's 2nd Eye.

    The next cave is in the location Beehive; it is the cave we have to run to for the noblesse quest. The mobs are the same, the key mob is Baraham. We go into the cave and kill all the mobs.

    Baraham in Lineage 2 C4: Scions of Destiny
  9. Talk to Champion Raldo.

    The NPC Champion Raldo appears and tells us that we ought to go to the dwarven village and have a talk with the dwarf Filaur.

    Champion Raldo in Lineage 2 C4: Scions of Destiny
  10. Dwarven Village. Find Gray Pillar's Filaur in the main hall of the village.

    Filaur stands in the round house opposite the teleport. We run to him; he hints that our way leads farther to the Mithril Mines, where we have to find the quest mob Succubus Queen. No problem.

    Gray Pillar's Filaur in Lineage 2 C4: Scions of Destiny
    Where to find Gray Pillar's Filaur: map of Dwarven Village
  11. Mithril Mines (teleport from Dwarven Village). Kill Succubus Queen (lv. 34).

    At this point I will tell a little more, because many look for this mob for a long time. The Succubus Queen stands at the very bottom of the Mithril Mines, it is just a long run to her. I had not been there for a long time and ran there again now: it all took 12 minutes. The mines have several entrances; I will tell about the way that starts from the usual teleport to the mines. In the mines each room has a way to the level below: either a descent by stairs or simply a road down between the rooms. We need to go down all the time. We enter the mine, pass the first corridor and go left, go down into the next room and left, there will be a wooden staircase. And down again. In short, you have got the principle. Down all the time. You may pay no attention to the mobs, they are small; even if they drain your HP, an ordinary healing potion makes up for it.

    Succubus Queen in Lineage 2 C4: Scions of Destiny
  12. So, going down lower and lower, you soon reach a little bridge. That means you are on the right way. We cross the bridge and continue the descent; farther on there will be some water on the right side, we run past it and on. At some moment you run into a big room with a huge hole in the centre going down in rings. We jump in there; there will be mobs of levels 29-30, but they will not catch you. After the jump we run into the exit that is right in front of you. A few rooms later a light appears ahead. We move in that direction and soon run out into an open space. We keep moving towards the light and run out onto a platform, in the centre of which stands some strange construction, and next to it that very quest mob, the Succubus Queen.

  13. Return to Champion Raldo. You receive: Mark of Challenger.

    We kill the quest mob, Champion Raldo appears again, we talk to him and get the mark Mark of Challenger. My congratulations.

  14. Next, racial quests await all the seekers of the second profession. The Gladiator and the Warlord go to do the quest for all the humans, Testimony of Trust. The Bladedancer do the quest for the dark elves, Testimony of Fate. The Swordsinger the quest for the light elves, Testimony of Life. And the Destroyer and the Tyrant the quest for the orcs, Testimony of Glory.

Tips

  • I will note one point here which does not matter on Interlude, but surely those who do this quest on later chronicles will come here too. When the Mithril Mines were populated with mobs of 85+, this quest mob was moved to the Abandoned Coal Mines, into the room where Master Toma appears.
  • Raldo does not stay long after a fight, so talk to him as soon as he appears.

Swordsinger class transfer quest: second mark (level 37)

Quest: Testimony of Life · reward: Mark of Life · given by Master Cardien

The second quest for the second profession for the light elves: Testimony of Life. I dreadfully dislike the quests in the light elven village, and this quest in particular: there are no teleports for it in the starting location of the light elves, and you have to run about here many times. But it has to be done, nothing for it.

The mithril cup

  1. Town of Dion. Find Master Cardien in the Warriors Guild and take the quest. You receive: Cardien's Letter.

    The quest is taken at level 37 from Master Cardien, who stands in the warriors guild in Dion. With that everything good ends, and ahead of us lies a frantic dashing over different locations, to some of which we will have to go on foot.

  2. Elven Village. Find Hierarch Asterios in the temple. You receive: Hierarch's Letter.

    Cardien sends us to the village of the light elves to Hierarch Asterios, who is in the temple of the goddess Eva. In the dialogue with Asterios the first answer has to be chosen, after which you are sent on a trek to the NPC Thalia, who stands exactly in a place you have to run to on your own feet. If you have a summoner at hand, I would recommend putting one there, because you will have to run to Thalia more than once.

  3. Iris Lake. Talk to Thalia. You receive: Grail Diagram.

    You have to go to Thalia across the bridge that is next to the temple and the teleport. Leaving out all the lyrics, I will say at once that Thalia sends you to Giran to the blacksmith Pushkin, known to everybody.

    Thalia in Lineage 2 C4: Scions of Destiny
  4. Giran Castle Town. Find Blacksmith Pushkin in the smithy. You receive: Pushkin's List.

    Pushkin needs many ingredients to craft something for us, so we set off to knock out the quest items.

    Where to find Blacksmith Pushkin: map of Giran Castle Town
  5. Death Pass. Hunt Wyrm (lv. 35) until you have: Wyrm's Talon ×20.

    20 Wyrm's Talon from the mobs Wyrm in the location Death Pass: teleport from Giran to Dragon Valley, the mobs are to the left of the teleport point.

    Wyrm in Lineage 2 C4: Scions of Destiny
  6. Hunt Guardian Basilisk (lv. 36) until you have: Pure Mithril Ore ×10.

    10 Pure Mithril Ore from the mobs Guardian Basilisk in the same place.

  7. Wasteland (teleport from Gludin Village). Hunt Ant Recruit (lv. 33), Ant Patrol (lv. 34), Ant Guard (lv. 35), Ant Soldier (lv. 35), Ant Warrior Captain (lv. 36) until you have: Ant Soldier Acid ×20.

    20 Ant Soldier Acid from various ants in the location Ant Nest: teleport from Gludio, you have to go down into the dungeon.

    Ant Recruit in Lineage 2 C4: Scions of DestinyAnt Patrol in Lineage 2 C4: Scions of Destiny
  8. Giran Castle Town. Return to Blacksmith Pushkin in the smithy. You receive: Pure Mithril Cup.

    We knock out all the items and carry them to Pushkin, and he crafts the Pure Mithril Cup for us.

  9. Iris Lake. Return to Thalia. You receive: Thalia's 1st Letter.

    It has to be carried to Thalia in the summerhouse (this is where the summon comes in handy, if you put one there).

Stardust

  1. Altar of Rites. Talk to Witch Arkenia. You receive: Arkenia's Contract.

    The next point Thalia sends us to is the location Altar of Rites (teleport from the dark elven village to the Spider Nest, and from there on foot to the altar). By the altar stands Witch Arkenia.

    Witch Arkenia in Lineage 2 C4: Scions of Destiny
  2. Gludin Village. Find Priest Adonius in the temple. You receive: Adonius's list.

    From Arkenia we teleport to Gludin Village, to the NPC Priest Adonius, who stands in the temple. Adonius needs the following components.

    Where to find Priest Adonius: map of Gludin Village
  3. Cruma Tower (teleport from Town of Dion). Hunt Marsh Spider (lv. 34) until you have: Spider Ichor ×20.

    20 Spider Ichor from the mobs Marsh Spider in the location Cruma Marshlands.

    Marsh Spider in Lineage 2 C4: Scions of Destiny
  4. Gorgon Flower Garden. Hunt Harpy (lv. 32) until you have: Harpy's Down ×20.

    20 Harpy's Down from the mobs Harpy, which live between the town and the castle of Giran: you have to leave Giran and go towards the castle.

    Harpy in Lineage 2 C4: Scions of Destiny
  5. Gludin Village. Return to Priest Adonius in the temple. You receive: Andariel Scripture Copy.

    The items we knocked out we carry to Adonius and get a copy of a book in return.

  6. Altar of Rites. Return to Witch Arkenia. You receive: Stardust.

    And carry it to Arkenia at the Altar of Rites; we get the Stardust as a reward.

  7. Iris Lake. Return to Thalia. You receive: Grail of Purity.

    And we teleport to Thalia again (those who have no summon run on foot).

Talin's spear

  1. Hunters Village. Find Isael Silvershadow on the square. You receive: Isael's Instructions.

    The next stage (yes, yes, this is not the end yet) is the craft of the quest spear, with which we will perform feats (a joke), so Thalia sends you far and for long (sarcasm again, I am dreadfully tired of running); in short, she sends you to Hunters Village, where opposite the gatekeeper on the square stands a madam with the name Isael Silvershadow (well, well, Silver Shadow, almost Keen Eye). This madam has frittered the spear away: it now lies about as a multitude of broken little pieces, and what is more, all those pieces were picked up by mobs, and we have to go and knock out all this cr... all these ingredients.

    Isael Silvershadow in Lineage 2 C4: Scions of Destiny
    Where to find Isael Silvershadow: map of Hunters Village
  2. Plains of the Lizardmen (teleport from Town of Oren). Hunt Leto Lizardman Shaman (lv. 39), Leto Lizardman Overlord (lv. 40) until you have: Talin's Spear Blade, Talin's Spear Shaft, Talin's Ruby, Talin's Aquamarine, Talin's Amethyst, Talin's Peridot.

    At least it is good that there are only two mobs: Leto Lizardman Shaman and Leto Lizardman Overlord, of levels 39 and 40 respectively, and the second has x2 HP as well. What is a poor Elven Elder to do here? The items drop three from one kind and three from the other. To the Elven Elders I recommend a warrior buff and dressing warmer; if that does not help, you will have to bring a damage dealer, take the HP off with it and finish the mobs off with the elder. The other classes will cope by themselves. Yes, the mobs are in the location Plains of the Lizardmen, teleport from Oren. If you do not want to spend money on the teleport, from Hunters Village you can run on foot to the lizardmen through the tunnel in the mountain that connects these two locations. In that case you have to leave Hunters Village through the exit next to the Olympiad pillar.

    Leto Lizardman Shaman in Lineage 2 C4: Scions of DestinyLeto Lizardman Overlord in Lineage 2 C4: Scions of Destiny
  3. Hunters Village. Return to Isael Silvershadow on the square. You receive: Talins Spear, Isael's Letter.

    When we have knocked out all the items, we go to Isael Silvershadow in Hunters Village again; she assembles the spear from the parts and hands it to us.

  4. Iris Lake. Return to Thalia.

    And again we have to go to Thalia (or be summoned, if you were provident). Now Thalia demands that we bring her the tears of the unicorn (Tears of Unicorn), which have to be knocked out of the quest mob of level 30, Unicorn of Eva.

Tears of the unicorn

  1. Elven Forest (teleport from Elven Village). Kill Unicorn Of Eva (lv. 30) to get: Tears of Unicorn.

    If at this moment you look at the map, you will see the mark on it far, far away: that is the place where we supposedly have to go. Nothing of the kind: the nearest unicorn stands quite close, and all the following ones stand at the same distance from one another right up to the mark. Why there are so many of them I do not know, but we go to the nearest one. The unicorn must be beaten without fail with the spear that was crafted for us; it lies in the ordinary inventory: we take it in hand, beat, and get the item.

    Unicorn Of Eva in Lineage 2 C4: Scions of Destiny
  2. Iris Lake. Return to Thalia. You receive: Water of Life.

    And once more we run to Thalia (well, at least now she is almost next door).

  3. Elven Village. Return to Hierarch Asterios in the temple. You receive: Camomile Charm.

    Then to the light village to Asterios.

  4. Town of Dion. Return to Master Cardien in the Warriors Guild. You receive: Mark of Life.

    Then to Dion to Master Cardien. Phew, at last the quest is done. We get the Mark of Life and dimensional diamonds and go to do the third, last quest for the profession.

  5. The future Elven Elder and Temple Knight go to do Test of the Healer. The future Swordsinger go to do Test of the Duelist. The future Plains Walker go to do Test of the Searcher. The future Silver Ranger go to do Test of Sagittarius. The future Elemental Summoner go to do Test of the Summoner. The future Spellsinger go to do Test of Magus.

Tips

  • Thalia continues only with a character of level 38 or higher.

Swordsinger class transfer quest: third mark (level 39)

Quest: Test of the Duelist · reward: Mark of Duelist · given by Duelist Kaien

The third quest for the second profession for the Bladedancer, the Gladiator, the Swordsinger and the Tyrant: Test of the Duelist.

Five orders: ten trophies of each kind

  1. Town of Oren. Find Duelist Kaien in the Warriors Guild and take the quest. You receive: Order Gludio, Order Dion, Order Giran, Order Oren, Order Aden.

    The quest is taken at level 39 from Duelist Kaien, who is in the warriors guild of Oren. Since we supposedly want to become duelists, it means we have to be slipped lots and lots of mobs to destroy, so here is a short little list; 10 quest items have to be knocked out of each kind of mob.

  2. Plains of the Lizardmen (teleport from Town of Oren). Hunt Leto Lizardman Overlord (lv. 40) until you have: Chief's Amulet ×10.

  11. Hunt Puncher (lv. 34) until you have: Puncher's Shard ×10.

    10 Puncher's Shard from the mobs Puncher in the same location, but there is no need to go into the cave: we run to the centre of the desert.

    Puncher in Lineage 2 C4: Scions of Destiny

Final order: three trophies of each kind

  1. Town of Oren. Return to Duelist Kaien in the Warriors Guild. You receive: Final Order.

    After such a multiple exorcism we hand all the items in to the NPC and... and get the next task. In it the mobs have to be thrashed in smaller numbers, and there are fewer kinds of mobs than in the first task, but these mobs are much fatter and are in more awkward places.

  2. Cruma Tower (teleport from Town of Dion). Hunt Krator (lv. 44) until you have: Krator's Shard ×3.

    3 Krator's Shard from the mobs Krator on the first floor of the Cruma Tower.

You will hear the flapping of wings: little dragons fly there next to the Lakins. There should be no difficulties at all, because even a sword singer is able to pick off all the mobs there alone.

    Lakin in Lineage 2 C4: Scions of Destiny
  7. Town of Oren. Return to Duelist Kaien in the Warriors Guild. You receive: Mark of Duelist.

    We hand in the last batch of items, get the mark Mark of Duelist and go to get the new profession.

In the dialogue choose the top line, the one about asking about a change of profession, choose our profession and press the line "change the profession". Congratulations, you have got the second profession.

Changing the class to Swordsinger (level 40)

With Mark of Challenger, Mark of Life, Mark of Duelist in the inventory, talk at level 40 to the head of your guild in any large town (Grand Master, Grand Magister, High Priest and others). He takes the marks and changes the class to Swordsinger.

Next: Sword Muse third class transfer quest from level 76 (Succession to the Legend, Sword Muse).
