Quests Have To Be Completed Sequentially

At the Royal Ancient Lab, all the quests are connected. You'll have to start with the left-most quest before unlocking more quests connected to it.

Some Quests have Completion Conditions

As with most quests, the Royal Ancient Lab Quests will require you to collect certain materials or defeat a number of enemies with a specific weapon.

However, there are some quests in the Royal Ancient Lab that may require an additional challenge. These can range from using Runes a certain number of times, or using Elemental Rods to affect a number of different enemies.

Some Quests Will Have More Than One Prerequisite

There are quests that will require you to complete more than one quest before unlocking it. If you ever find yourself wondering why a quest can't be accessed, be sure to check the quests connected to it's left to make sure they're all completed.

Rest assured that the further you progress into the tree, the rewards will continue to improve.
