Wraith's Ploy quest confusion. Help?

I have a gold quest chain on my quest list called Wraith's Ploy. It is confusing.
A quest guide says:

Once you complete Wraiths' Ploy, you will be able to enter Lost Heaven Tears using the Chrono Key by talking to Messenger of Time (552 654) in Archosaur.
Does this mean these golden quests are not required for cultivation? It's only useful to unlock this thing? Why is this important? What if I skip this quest chain? Thanks. ^^

    Not required for cultivation, yes.

    However, you get some useful quests in Old Heaven's Tear, such as a daily that gives 18,000 coins and 4 Tears of Heaven, which can be used to forge Old Heaven's Tear items, which require level 1 manufacts and decompose into Perfect Stones. You can get like 70 Perfect Stones daily from that. Though, said quest is only available at 90+.

    But doing the Chrono quest isn't that hard, as it only requires 1 boss in 1-1 and 1-2 and then bosses you'd do for culti anyway.
    If you disregard what I say because of who I am or because of the contents of what I said, you are a fool.

    Everyone wants to be different, but when you're different you wish you were normal.

    I see, thanks for the help. :) I'll keep it on my quest list, but only do it around my mid 80's.

    Wraith ploy and all chains that go after it arent literally cultivation quests, BUT you need to do them all to be able to enter all 4 OHT maps, and you need these maps opened to be able to do lvl 100 spiritual cultivation (celestial sage/demon level)
    maybe this is why they show as culti? though be careful - they can be trashed and if you do that you will have to retake them and redo whatever part wasnt finished
    so daily is nice, opening all the maps is a pain, and if you want lvl 3 fairy you must go thought it anyway
    (im currently stuck at rb part of opening unicorn b:cry)

    Gah... PWI is full of bosses, cultivation and stuff like that... D: They should have put 2 class changes in the game like in other MMOs. xD These things are so frustrating... Oh well, I guess I'll do it when other people need it in my faction. Thank you.

    They dont actually show as cultivation. Quests are color coded for different reasons. Blue & Purple quests give you an item in the end thats blue or purle. And gold quests are needed to unlock some aspect of the game.

    However, Cultivation quest specifically go under a quest sub-heading of "Spiritual Cultivation" much like you sometimes get quests under sub-headings of "Hero" or "Challenge" or "Adventure" etc. The difference between 'Chrono' quests and 'Culti' quests is that the gold chrono quests do not appear under that "Cultivation" sub-heading, but rather are simply listed under the "Normal" sub-heading.

    However as stated above, in the long run they are needed. Whether it be for Chrono, or for Culti, any gold quest is a necessary part of the game.

    Wow, that's quite a topic change.

    The fairies are called genies in Perfect World, and there's a quest from the "Watcher of the Earth". It's a rather complicated subject; you might at least want to skim over one of the sticked genie guides (in the Beginners or General Discussions forum, probably).

    And no, not everyone has one :-) I don't...
    Slow progress, game is getting way too grindy :-( Quests I still hope to be able to do some day: FB39, General Feng

    Actually, the fairy they referred to earlier is the Demon/Sage cultivation fairy. It's a flying thing that indicates your cultivation level past level 89, that's all.

    So..Considering this quest is glitched and you cannot get the "beach Situation" part to activate, i assume there really is not much sense going on with this toon. This means you cannot finish the gold quest thus no oht or fb100 culti. Kind of a dead toon?
