Lineage Piece Shadow Daggers: Full 9-Quest Guide (Floor 50)
Before You Start
The Shadow Daggers NPC gates the quest behind three requirements: Player’s Dagger (how to get it), level 5,000+, and Monarch’s Acknowledgment — a 10% drop from the Sung Jin Woo boss.
The Nine Quests
- Kill the normal Sung Jin Woo boss 15 times.
- Reach Floor 50 in the Tower (Tower mechanics).
- Clear Cartenon Temple 15 times.
- Obtain both Demon King Daggers — each is a 7.5% drop from the Shadow Monarch boss (600M HP, Extreme).
- Deal 2B damage with Player’s Dagger.
- Kill the Clone of Monarch using Player’s Dagger.
- Clear the Sovereign Dungeon on Extreme 20 times.
- Clear the Abyss Dungeon on Extreme 20 times.
- Defeat the Shadow Monarch boss 10 times.
The Final Bill
After all nine quests, the purchase itself: 1 Monarch’s Soul (1.2% from Shadow Monarch) + 2 Cores of Shadow (3%) + 10 Gate Fragments + 10M coins & 10K gems.
Strategy Notes
- Quests 4, 9 and the Monarch’s Soul all come from the same boss — the Shadow Monarch rotation covers three requirements at once.
- The 2B damage quest ticks passively; equip Player’s Dagger for all your Cartenon/Tower runs and it completes itself.
- The Monarch race (+27.5% weapon damage, +5% Shadow’s Dagger damage) is the intended endgame pairing — its race item drops in the same content band.
- Floor 50 is the hard wall for most players: stack Tower permanent upgrades (10 tiers per stat, 6 shards each) across daily resets before pushing.
