The Pailune Militia faction quests are some of the most geographically spread content in Crimson Desert. You first encounter this group in Chapter 6 when the story pushes you north into the frozen mountain territory of Pailune, but the quests themselves scatter you across the entire map. There are 27 total Faction Quests tied to this group, and tracking them all down without a roadmap is genuinely painful.
What are the Pailune Militia quests in Crimson Desert?
The Pailune Militia is a faction tied to the northern Pailune region, introduced during Chapter 6 of Crimson Desert. Unlike some faction quest lines that stay confined to one area, these quests send you back and forth across Crimson Desert's wide open world. That scope makes them rewarding to complete but easy to miss if you're not paying attention to quest markers.
How do you unlock Pailune Militia quests?
You need to reach Chapter 6 before this faction becomes available. The game naturally introduces you to the people of Pailune as the main story moves north, so you won't stumble into these quests early. Once unlocked, the quests appear in the Faction Side Quests category and can be tracked through the in-game checklist system.

Open the faction quest checklist as soon as Chapter 6 unlocks. Some quests have start locations that are easy to walk past without knowing they exist.

Crossroads of Succession quest breakdown
Both quests are straightforward. Closed Fence is a combat objective where you clear out enemies in the area around the property. Resolve Forgotten Past the Fence is a conversation quest: find Clemens and talk to him. If you're farming Demenissian Contribution, completing both back-to-back at the same location is efficient since you earn 200 Contribution points without leaving the area.

Tips for completing all 27 Pailune Militia quests efficiently
With 27 quests spread across the full map, a little planning goes a long way.
- Group quests by region. Since many quests send you to different parts of the world, sort them by location before setting out. Clearing all quests in one area before moving to the next saves significant travel time.
- Track Demenissian Contribution totals. If you're targeting a specific Contribution threshold for a vendor unlock or quest gate, knowing how many quests remain in the Demeniss region helps you plan.
- Talk to every NPC near quest markers. Conversation-based quests like Resolve Forgotten Past the Fence can be easy to overlook if you're in combat mode. Slow down near quest markers and check for dialogue prompts.
- Use the in-game checklist.Crimson Desert has a built-in checklist system for Faction Side Quests. Mark quests as you go so you don't double back to already-completed objectives.
Where does Pailune Militia fit in the broader faction quest system?
Pailune Militia sits alongside other regional factions in Crimson Desert's faction quest structure. The Demeniss Faction Quests are the natural next step after finishing the Pailune Militia line, according to IGN's wiki navigation. The two faction lines share the Demeniss region as common ground, so completing Pailune Militia quests first gives you familiarity with the area before the Demeniss quests send you deeper into it.
