The Saga of Lord Arak Questline has 33 quests.
The Saga takes place mostly in Nightmare Tide zones, and Nightmare Tide instances. There is also a PVP quest.
This Saga is quite challenging compared to the others. Even at level 70 you will find some of the quests difficult, especially if you choose to solo the level 65 instanced content.
The weapons from the final quest have rare skins, and can be upgraded into even rarer skins! Don’t throw them away until you check that upgrade!
The questline is the same for Defiant and Guardian characters.
The Saga of Lord Arak quests will have their own small section in your questlog.

Your quest objective will now change to ‘Defeat Lord Arak’
This is the big fight!
Lord Arak will be easy pickings for a seasoned level 70.. but a lower levelled/geared player may have a few issues, so I will explain some tactics.
- Firstly, Orphiel is there to help you! He will heal you during the fight.
- Arak will debuff you with ‘Nightmares Shadow‘. Move into the golden circles to cleanse it. Dont stay in them too long or they will hurt you too!
- Arak will summon a Vassal of Delusion, a mob with a green circle around him. If Arak is in the green circle then he gets a buff, so kite him out of it!
- Facing Fear – Face away from the boss til the spell is finished to avoid taking damage
- Enervating State – Ticks damage on you, keep jumping to avoid the damage!
Your quest objective will now change to ‘Enter Glacier’s End’
Follow Orphiel up the path and into the next portal.
Your quest objective will now change to ‘Warn Asha Catari and Cyril Kalmar’
Watch the roleplay play out.
Hand in the quest to Orphiel.
Completing this quest will award you the cheevo ‘Between Arak and a Hard Place’
This cheevo awards you the title ‘The Dreamy’
Each of the weapons rewarded from this quest can be upgraded. The upgraded weapon gives a different skin, some of these skins are super rare! Completing this questline on alts can be an easier way to gain these skins.
This is the end of the Saga of Lord Arak.
Orphiel Farwind and the Port Scion Instance
The reward from quest 22 is a dimension item that places an Orphiel Farwind NPC in your dimension.
Orphiel will do many different things, including; setting off fireworks, turning you into a bunny, enlarging your head, , disappearing to go fishing.. and, more importantly.. he can open a portal to an instanced version of Port Scion. This will now be the same version as the one on quest 22, with the same trash, but with ARTIFACTS to pick up!
This Port Scion instance is the only place you can get these artifacts, so it is worth farming the instance until you finish all the sets.
The artifacts will endlessly respawn. Pick up all the artifacts in port scion, then leave the instance. right click your portrait to reset the instance and then go back into your dimension to wait for Orphiel to summon the next portal. When you go in again, the artifacts will have respawned. Using this method you can farm port scion for hours, the only time sink being waiting for Orphiels portal.
Other tips..
- You can reduce the portal waiting time by putting multiple Orphiels in your dimension. The Orphiel dimension item can be traded between players, or sent from your alts.
- Leaving via the portal will take you to the Wreck of the Endeavor island.
- If you get stuck in combat and are unable to leave it is likely because there is a mob attacking you that has pathed under the ground. Go to either end of the river to lose agro of bring it out so you can kill it.
- Patrons artifact vial is perfect for this area. You can enter the portal with an alt too and use their vials!
- This is a multi-player instance, you can group up with your friends before you port in so they can help you clear the trash.
The Places You'll Go
Collecting all the artifacts in the Port Scion instance does not grant a cheevo.
The artifacts are all ‘normal’ sets, you do not need any special sights to see them.
