Finding a guide

Choose a topic and search by name, item, class, or place. Open a result for its full guide.

Quest pages combine attributed Forever client observations, exact Forever objectives and dated reward snapshots. Each source keeps its build and observation date; beta records and older Korean-region values can differ from the live game. Guaranteed items and choose-one rewards are separate. Unreported values are not zero, and a source list does not establish a starting location.

Use the topic menu to explore guides and interactive tools. Credits are available in the footer.

Quest description

If I am short with you, it is for a reason. The plans for the creation of the great blade, Corruption, have been stolen by the Black Guard: Elite skeletal units of Baron Rivendare.

Yes, Baron Rivendare of Stratholme.

The Black Guard swordsmith now guards those plans with his... undeath.

Slay him and return proof of this deed and I shall train you in the ways of the swordsmith.
