Where to start
Nella · Kerning City
Nella is in Kerning City itself. She's the same Nella who gives the Lv10 requests.
Before you start
- Finish Nella's Lv10 set first: Don Hwang's Request, Shumi's Request and Andre's Request.
- Get your 1st job before you finish the last quest, since the boots match your job.

Tips
- Leather is a rare drop. Leather and Stiff Feathers are both tradeable, so buying them on the Free Market can be faster.
- Jane and the Mushroom also wants Horny Mushrooms (30 kills, 15 caps). The Swamp of Despair II covers both quests, so collect 35 caps there.
- Evil Eyes are Lv27, five levels above the quest. Ant Tunnel Park also has Zombie Mushrooms for Maya's and Jane Doe's quests.
Still being confirmed
- The best maps for Pigs, Ribbon Pigs and Wild Boars (for Leather and Stiff Feathers) aren't confirmed yet.
- Nella's exact spot in Kerning City after the Oct 15 Kerning update isn't confirmed yet.
