Nektropos Castle Timeline

These are heroic quests that take place within Nektropos Castle . This zone is aimed at players of level 30-37. However, it is very challenging below level 32.

Note about Second Floor: Many of the quests require access to the second floor. It is hard to earn access to the second floor before level 35 (see The Everling Lockets quest for details). However, if one of your groupmates already has access to the second floor, then you can complete many of these quests before level 35.

Zone Progression Quests Edit

You receive Visions of Hatred when you enter the courtyard for the first time, but it is not required to get the others. The Boar's Head leads directly to The Red Marble so they must be done in sequence.
