Better Days is a very short quest that requires you to return a Faded Old Painting to someone in Margrave that appreciates such art.
This will likely be encountered while you are doing the Bound by Blood quest or when you enter the Western Tunnels for the first time.
You will need to pick up the piece of art dropped by some mobs and return them to a man in Margrave for a small reward.
How To Get Better Days Quest?
The Better Days Side Quest begins right after you have picked up the Faded Old Painting, which drops from a certain group of enemies in the Western Tunnels.
Better Days Quest Objectives
1) Pick up Faded Old Painting
While you are doing quests, you may encounter the Faded Old Painting when slaying mobs in the Western Tunnels, which often happens during Bound by Blood.
One of the enemies will drop a Faded Old Panting, which will start the Better Days Side Quest once you pick it up.
2) Show the Faded Old Painting to Zalan Coste
Once you have the Faded Old Painting, head to Margrave and speak with Zalan Coste to receive a reward from him for turning in the painting.
Better Days Rewards
After collecting and giving the Faded Old Painting to Zalan Coste, the quest will be complete and you will receive the following:
- XP
- Gold
- 20 Fractured Peaks Renown
- 1 Salvage Cache
Verdict
The Fade Old Painting turns out to have been a piece of art that existed even before the time of Zalan Coste’s mother.
Although this is a rare find, not many would appreciate such art and Zalan mentions that it might just be thrown into a fire.
He decides to keep the painting and rewards you but tells you to let him know if you find any other similar art that you can bring back to him.
