Menancia features more sub-quests than any other realm in Tales of Arise. There are 21 of them in total, including two of only three post-game quests. As such, those hoping to complete all 70 sub-quests and unlock the Problem Solver trophy/achievement are going to be spending an awful lot of time in the area. It's not all bad though, as some of the rewards available for completing the quests in Menancia are incredibly useful.
As well as an awful lot of Gald and SP, players can get their hands on new titles, artifacts, and armor sets, not to mention the Devil's Arms weapons for each of the six party members. Sadly, the latter won't arrive until players have already completed Tales of Arise's main story, but that's not to say that they aren't still useful for some of the game's other post-game content.
Updated November 5, 2021 by Tom Bowen: The Tales franchise is one that is renowned for its content-rich titles, and its most recent installment, Tales of Arise, is no different in this regard. As well as an expansive main story, the game also features 70 different side-quests for players to sink their teeth into; many of which can be found in the third main area that the party visits. They can at times be a little tricky, but those having trouble figuring out how to complete every sub-quest in Menancia should look no further, as this guide will explain exactly what needs to be done and the rewards that players will get for doing it.
