Masterminds of Sharn

From DDO wiki
Jump to navigation Jump to search

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?

Adventure pack[edit]

  • a 9-quest story arc (level 15-16/32) set in the City of Sharn
  • The Cogs, a level 15/32 wilderness adventure area
  • 8 walk-up quests (15-16/32) in the Cogs (stand-alone, not related to main story line)
  • Two level 32 raids*
  • Two sagas, at both the Heroic and Epic levels (so 4 total)
(* One raid was included on launch of this pack, the second was delayed and added a bit later.)

Quests[edit]

  • Quests are located in both the upper (non-docks) areas of the City of Sharn. There are several ways to access that area.
  • All quests grant Sharn City Council favor.
  • Story quests cannot be red-doored. In each chain, you need to complete the first quest to enter the middle ones, and complete all of those to enter the last one.
    • When you run them for the first time, you have to run them mostly in order.
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 NPCs to turn them in to, and no end reward. This makes farming particularly easy - just turn around after recalling and you can run them again.
  • The Sharn quests conclude the storyline of the level 14 adventure pack Disciples of Rage; so you may want to complete that as well as the Free-to-Play Level 15 quest Lost at Sea first.
