Quest Chains
Complete quest progression from homeland training to the Throne of Ruin - 156 quests across all phases.
"Every quest is a step closer to Alassa's throne. Every victory weakens the Dominion. Every defeat costs lives we cannot afford to lose."
General Kira Ironhand
The quest system in Arcania follows a structured progression from your racial homeland through to the final confrontation with Alassa. All quests serve the war effort against the Dominion.
