BDO Repeatable/Recurring Alchemy Quests for EXP: Olvia

Olvia, the sleepy town located Northwest of Western Guard Camp in Balenos, offers a series of daily repeatable Alchemy (and Gathering) quests that reward Alchemy EXP, Contribution EXP, and other goodies. Some of the repeatable quests are locked behind a prerequisite questline while others only require a certain Alchemy/Gathering skill. See the charts below for a detailed look at the questlines.

• A list of the Olvia repeatable Alchemy (and Gathering) quests can be found by going to your Quest Log (O key), selecting the Recurring tab, and looking for the [Apprentice Alchemy] Olvia Alchemy Journal questline.
• All of the daily repeatable quests can be picked up simultaneously after the prerequisite questlines are completed.
• Daily Alchemy quests in Olvia reset at server reset every day.

Are the Olvia Alchemy Quests Worth Doing?

The easy and simple repeatable Alchemy quests are the most helpful for leveling Alchemy.

With my tests, at Artisan 5 Alchemy, each repeatable quest in Olvia gave me .41% Alchemy EXP.

The price for the more advanced Alchemy Repeatable quests is quite high, but still gives the same amount of Alchemy Exp as the more inexpensive and easier ones.

#3 and #4 costs 5 oils, which may be too expensive for .41% Alchemy EXP.

This website: https://www.bdodae.com/ is very helpful for researching recipes in BDO to determine if you have all the materials and if it would be cost effective to make and sell on the Marketplace or to the Imperial Crafting Delivery NPC.

For more information on Imperial Alchemy please see this guide: Imperial Alchemy Guide.

Alchemy is arguably the most expensive Life Skill to level and considered an end game skill for players who have amassed large amounts of bottlenecked resources over time and/or have lots of silver to spend on buying materials at the Marketplace.

The daily repeatable Alchemy quests in the chart below require Alchemy Apprentice 1+. They are NOT locked behind any other questlines or requirements which make them simple to complete. Also, the materials needed for the items crafted are not too difficult to acquire unless you are a fairly new player or have limited resources.
