Side quests are an excellent way to rank in some extra EXP points and gold for extra items. We have listed 29 side quests that you can finish while on your journey to defeat monsters, bandits and something even more sinister?!

The most important side quests in the game are Paralogues so let’s start off with them. Paralogues can give handsome rewards for example some hero relic gear, overpowered battalions and much more.

We’ll get into all the paralogues and their rewards but first you need to know of the requirements these paralogues have. If you want to start a particular paralogue you will need to recruit the specific person who is the key character in the paralogue. Some paralogue require two characters then you have to recruit them both to undertake the paralogue. Paralogues don’t stay in the game forever and are not available​ at any time. They will appear at a certain point and they will go away at a certain point. Some paralogues are available before the timeskip and some are available after the timeskip.

Do bear in mind that if you want rewards like Hero’s Relics you will need the specific character in your party to acquire it. Ok without further Ado let’s get it all the paralogues and their rewards. The paralogues are categorized in two Pre-Timeskip and Post-Timeskip.
