Missions in Nioh 2 are the game's quests and progression levels. Players partake in various missions such as Main Missions which focuses on the game's main campaign and story, Sub Missions that take you through side activities of the game and advance side plots, Twilight Missions which are harder variants that give increased rewards and Master Missions which are considered as training missions for the player's character. This page covers a full list of all the Missions in Nioh 2.
What Order Should I do Missions in?
See Walkthrough and Game Progress Route for progression suggestions. In general, all missions have a "recommended level", and a difficulty ranking. It's advisable to do them in the suggested order.
- Make sure you do Training Missions as soon as they unlock, since they will unlock paths in your Skill Trees.

How comes that the area's are not listed? Its super annoying to manually search all areas when looking for a mission

Does anyone know what is meant by a "Online Mission" (for example the mission, at which you are searching with William for his son)? Does they are only available, if you are online or do they something special, too?
'The Mausoleum of Evil' is Part of Dream, not Twilight.
