Blade and Soul NEO Classic: Lost Pet Quest Guide
The "Lost Pet" quest in Blade & Soul NEO Classic is a charming and beginner-friendly side mission found early in the game's Viridian Coast zone. While it may appear simple on the surface, the quest provides useful early-game rewards such as Divine Gems, a Key, an Unsealing Charm, and a Viridian Reward Chest. This makes it worth completing whether you're new to the game or revisiting with a fresh character.
In this guide, we'll walk you through every step of the "Lost Pet" quest, including how to find the elusive Pokey, interact with Mugyul, and maximize your rewards.
Step 1: Talk to Mugyul
To begin the quest, locate Mugyul at the Lakeside Cache in the Viridian Coast. Mugyul is a distressed NPC who shares his worries about his missing pet named Pokey. According to his dialogue, Pokey ran off into the nearby wilderness, and Mugyul is too nervous to venture after him alone.
Tip: Mugyul is usually marked with a yellow quest icon on your minimap. You can track him easily by activating quest navigation in your journal (press J by default).
When you speak with him, you'll automatically accept the "Lost Pet" quest.
Step 2: Find and Subdue Pokey
After accepting the quest, your next objective is to track down Pokey, Mugyul's wayward pet. Pokey can be found roaming near the Lakeside Cache, in a lightly wooded area not far from Mugyul himself. The creature has wandered into a lightly contested zone that occasionally spawns aggressive wildlife, so stay alert if you're at a lower level.
Map Hint: Pokey is located just northeast of Mugyul's camp, around a rock outcropping near a shallow pond.
Visual Cue: Pokey appears as a plump raccoon-like creature with a distinct purple glow around its tail, making it easy to identify.
Once you find Pokey, you need to subdue him. However, this does not mean killing or defeating him. The task involves interacting with him using the "F" key once he's calm or using a non-lethal stun or snare skill if he attempts to flee.
Tip for Beginners: If you're having trouble interacting with Pokey, wait a moment until he stops moving, then press F when the prompt appears.
Combat Note: You don't need to kill any nearby mobs to complete this part of the quest, unless they are directly attacking you or Pokey.
After successfully subduing Pokey, the quest tracker will update with a message to return to Mugyul.
Step 3: Talk to Mugyul Again
With Pokey secured and safe, head back to Mugyul to report your success. He will be grateful and surprised that you managed to find and calm his precious pet. This marks the narrative closure of the quest and begins the reward phase.
Dialog Note: Mugyul will briefly mention how Pokey has a habit of running off, implying that there may be follow-up pet-related quests in the future.
Step 4: Turn In the Quest and Collect Your Rewards
Upon completing the quest, Mugyul will hand over the following rewards:
Quest Rewards:
BnS Classic Divine Gems
These can be slotted into your weapon or accessories to provide passive stat boosts like critical hit chance, damage bonuses, or life steal. BnS NEO Classic Divine Gems are especially useful early on for smoothing your leveling curve.
630 XP
A solid chunk of experience, especially in the early levels. Completing this quest can help push you to the next milestone (often from level 5 to 6 or beyond).
1 Key
Keys are essential for opening locked chests dropped by dungeon bosses or elite mobs. Save them for rare chests containing gear upgrades or materials.
1 Unsealing Charm
Used to unseal equipment that comes with a "Sealed" tag. These are commonly found in reward chests and quest drops. Early on, you'll need these to use better-quality weapons and accessories.
1 Viridian Reward Chest
Contains random consumables, gear pieces, or enhancement materials. Opening this chest can give you a lucky early edge, especially if it drops a rare item.
Additional Tips for New Players
Save Your Key and Unsealing Charm
Don't use your key or charm immediately unless you absolutely need to. They are somewhat scarce early on and are best reserved for meaningful loot drops.
Equip Divine Gems ASAP
When you get your first socket ed weapon, equip the Divine Gem to benefit from improved stats during combat. Even the most basic gem can significantly boost your DPS output in low-level zones.
Look for Follow-Up Quests
While "Lost Pet" isn't part of a major quest chain, NPCs like Mugyul often appear in other side quests or events. Checking in with them again later may unlock more content or dailies.
Great for Competitions
If you're working toward a 100% zone completion or achievement hunting in NEO Classic, this quest is a quick and satisfying check mark to earn progress and loot.
Final Thoughts
The "Lost Pet" quest may seem like a small detour in Blade & Soul NEO Classic, but it plays an important role in introducing players to the game's early progression system and side content structure. It offers a lighthearted narrative, teaches valuable interaction mechanics, and rewards useful items that assist with gear growth and dungeon readiness.
Whether you're leveling a new class or exploring the Viridian Coast for the first time, don't overlook this gem of a quest — Pokey may be lost, but the rewards are right on track.
