Masterminds of Sharn

''Explore one of the most iconic locations in the D&D Eberron campaign setting in Dungeons & Dragons Online: Masterminds of Sharn. Navigate the power struggles between the rich and powerful as you hunt from the highest towers of the city to the deepest depths of the Cogs. The artifact that protected the city of Stormreach has been stolen. You've followed the trail of the culprit across the sea to the vast metropolis of Sharn. Can you recover the Stormreach Beacon without becoming a casualty of the conflicts between the Aurum, the City Council, and the Boromar Clan?''

Quests

 * All quests grant Sharn City Council favor.
 * Story quests cannot be red-doored. You need to take the quest to enter.
 * When you run them for the first time, you have to run them mostly* in order. &#8199; &#8199; * Complete A Sharn Welcome. This allows you to run the next three quests in any order. After those you can enter the finale of the first chain, Just Business. Similar flagging is required for the second chain.
 * There are two chain bestower NPCs that guide you through the process (and award a reward for completing).
 * The side quests are walk-ups in the Cogs, bestowed automatically as you approach the entrance. There no NPC to turn them in and no end reward. This makes farming particularly easy - just turn around after recalling and you can run them again.
