Help two brothers recover some medicinal plant sap from an Ayleid ruin.
Zone: Malabal Tor
Quest Giver: Daine
Location(s): Black Vine Ruins
Reward: Average Leveled Gold
 
Daine and his brother, Dariel, came to the ruins in search of a plant which grows in the light of an Ayleid well. Its sap is rumored to cure any malady.


Quick Walkthrough[edit]

  1. Talk to Daine.
  2. Search for Dariel.
  3. Collect the plant sap.
  4. Talk to Dariel.
  5. Return to Daine.

Detailed Walkthrough[edit]

Inside Black Vine Ruins, near the entrance, you'll see Daine seated upon the ground, lamenting. Speak to him to start the quest. He tells you that his brother, Dariel, thought he could outsmart the bandits residing within the ruins to collect some sap to cure Daine's ailment. Unfortunately, he hasn't returned, and Daine asks if you'll find him.

Inside the ruins, you'll find a number of personnel working for the Red Sun Bandits — the usual arrangement of melee fighters, archers, and the occasional mage. Some of these enemies are capable of summoning dire wolves to fight alongside them, but as with any summon, killing the summoner kills the wolves. Deeper in the ruins, you'll also begin to encounter Stranglers. Once you find Dariel, speak to him. You can tell Dariel you'll retrieve the sap for him, to which he will be baffled.

The Luminous Plant you seek is located directly next to the Blackvine Strangler, the boss for this cave. You will very likely have to kill it before you can safely collect the sap. Once you have the sap, speak to Dariel, then return to the ruins' entrance. When you approach Daine, talk to Dariel again to complete the quest.

Escorting Dariel[edit]

Alternatively, If you persuade Dariel to leave, you can escort him out without getting the sap. Dariel will begin to follow you. You must bring him to near the place where you met Daine. Once there, he will stand next to his brother and you will need to talk to Dariel to finish the quest.

Notes[edit]

  • If you persuade Dariel to leave with you, you don't get the sap to cure Daine.

Quest Stages[edit]

* Any text displayed in angle brackets (e.g., <Alias=LocationHold>) is dynamically set by the game and will be filled in with the appropriate word(s) when seen in game.
  • Not all Journal Entries may appear in your journal; which entries appear and which entries do not depends on the manner in which the quest is done.
  • Stages are not always in order of progress. This is usually the case with quests that have multiple possible outcomes or quests where certain tasks may be done in any order. Some stages may therefore repeat objectives seen in other stages.
