All 23 side quests scattered across Altgard's outlying zones, with their givers, steps, targets, and full reward lists.

All 23 side quests scattered across Altgard’s outlying zones, with their givers, steps, targets, and full reward lists.

Altgard hides a lot of its side content away from the main hubs. Spread across thirteen out-of-the-way zones are 23 Regional quests for Asmodian players, each tied to a local problem, a stranded merchant, or a piece of the region’s history. They run from short fetch jobs to multi-stage investigations, and every one pays out a title and a stack of growth materials.

Quick answer: These 23 Asmodian Regional quests sit in Altgard’s smaller areas, are recommended for levels 12 to 45, and together award 44,659,027 EXP on top of Kina, titles, and gear.

Every quest below also hands over one Wisdom Stone (Bound) and one Daevanion Crystal (Bound) on completion, so the full reward table near the end lists those once rather than repeating them for each entry.


Dredgion Crash Site

Shugo-of-All-Trades (Level 12)

Shugo-of-All-Trades starts with Dari at the Temporary Investigation Base and ends with him at the Quai Campsite. Dari, who calls himself a legendary jack-of-all-trades, got so absorbed gathering materials at the crash site that his neutralizer nearly wore off, and he fled leaving his bag behind. He promises to expand your Cube if you retrieve it. To finish, interact with Dari’s Materials Bag and bring it back. The payoff is comic: the “expert” turns out to be a complete beginner at Cube expansion and has to beg forgiveness.

Creion Research Assistant (Level 16)

Creion Research Assistant is given by Benekt at the Creion Campsite. The Creion are trying to build a resource that can replace Odyle, and Benekt is studying Drakana at the contaminated crash site. She pairs you with her cheerful trainee, Tefra, to gather more of it.
