The primary questline in Brighter Shores leads you through different regions where you’ll interact with new characters, battle formidable foes, and enhance your abilities. Like many aspects of the game, progress requires you to reach a specific level.
This guide will outline all the main quests in Brighter Shores, detailing the level requirements for each quest. It will provide a general overview of what’s needed to finish each quest without going into excessive detail, as there are numerous main quests across four distinct areas.
Completing the final quest in each section will grant you entry to the next area.
Hopeport Main Quest
The primary quests in Hopeport are quite straightforward, as many serve as tutorials for the game. Below is a list of the main quests in Hopeport.
Generally, side quests are not mandatory for progression. Additionally, some side quests may have high skill level requirements, so you can return to them later.
It’s advisable to tackle side quests when possible, but don’t be concerned if you progress to the next area without finishing a quest like The Brannof Inheritance, which requires you to be a level 50 Alchemist and a level 61 Chef.
