Befallen Shard Quest Guide

Posted Mon, Apr 05, 2010 by Savanja

Befallen is broken up into three instanced dungeons located in the Commonlands near the Hidden Canyon Station griffon tower. Due to the misuse of the instances that award void shards, it has gotten a little bit more difficult to complete these tasks in these zones but if you are looking to earn shard gear, taking groups through zones like Befallen on a regular basis is still the quickest way.

The zones scale from levels 50 to 90. If you're higher level and would rather be able to get through the zones quickly, you can no longer grey out the zone, but you can self mentor via the chronomages and play alongside a lower level player to make the zones easier. For example, you can group with a level 50, self mentor to level 60 which will make the encounters easier but still give you enough challenge that you'll be earning those shards.

The three Befallen zones each have their own unique shard quests and chest locations. Below you will find the quests that you can receive from Squire Hadley outside of Befallen as well as the location of each chest and key found in the instances. Befallen: The Necrotic Asylum will soon be included the very moment I can get through it without hurting myself.

Generally you don't want to mess with someone called the "Bonegrinder"

Befallen: Cavern of the Afflicted

Each zone holds a chest that will yield shards for your group. For Cavern of the Afflicted, the chest is found in the room with the Bonegrinder and the key drops from the thieving jesterling found in the corner of the room on the opposite end of the hall from the Bonegrinder.

Shard Quests

Fall of the Risen - Speak with Squire Hadley outside of Befallen. Kill 10 vicars and 10 chevaliers. These are all found on the first floor. Rewards at least 15g and 1 void shard.

Sorry to Disturb - Speak with Squire Hadley outside of Befallen. Kill 10 disturbed vicars and 10 disturbed chevaliers. These are all found on the first floor. 15g and 1 void shard.

Gathering the Fallen - Speak with Squire Hadley. Obtain the remains of the fallen pages. No killing needed for this one so if you happen to be a class with feign death, you can technically do this one without a group. Rewards at least 15g and 1 void shard. The remains are found in these locations:

Restoring the Might - Speak with Squire Hadley. This is another quest that is done without any killing. Repair the broken statutes found within the zone. Rewards at least 15g and 1 void shard. The statutes are located:

/waypoint 38, 0, -70

Befallen: Halls of the Forsaken

Undead never looked so cool

The key for the shard chest drops off of the phantasmal drunkard in the Great Hall and you will find his chest in the Chapel of Penance that will award void shards to the group.

Shard Quests

End of the Forsaken - Speak with Squire Hadley. Slay 8 forsaken soldiers and conscripts. These guys are found through out the zone, mostly up front. Rewards at least 15g and 1 void shard.

Finding Salvation - Speak with Squire Hadley. Free 8 tormented spirits using the Symbol of Marr's Salvation. Locate and target each of the tortured phantasm, use the symbol, then put the spirit to rest. Rewards at least 15g and 1 void shard.

Hope for the Forlorn - Speak with Squire Hadley. Slay 40 forlorn denizens. These are all over the zone and easy to find. Rewards at least 15g and 1 void shard.

Sanctimonious Solution - Speak with Squire Hadley. Use the Marr blessed item to cense each of these rooms within the zone. Rewards at least 15g and 1 void shard.
