Dying Light 2 All Sparker Love Interests

February 6, 2022 by PowerPyx 13 Comments

Dying Light 2 has 3 Sparker Love Interests for the Man On a Mission trophy and achievement. They are all part of the Matchmaker questline found at the Bakery settlement in Trinity district. After completing the initial quest “Matchmaker” you will get Aiden’s Dating Card. This allows you to return to this place after some time has passed to meet 3 potential Love Interests, a woman called Juliet, a man called Vinnie, and a girl called Maya. There are only these 3 potential Lovers for the purpose of the questline and trophy.

This can still be done after the story. The questline isn’t missable and it’s still there in the endgame.

Step 1: Complete Matchmaker side quest

Complete Side Quest “Matchmaker“. It’s located in Trinity district and becomes available after Main Quest 7: The Raid. At the end of this quest you get the Memento “Aiden’s Dating Card”, this is what starts the Sparker Love Interests questline. The Dating Card allows you to return to this place later to meet 3 potential love interests, Juliet a woman, Vinnie a man, and Maya a girl.

Step 2: First Love Interest – Juliet

Fast travel away, sleep in bed a few times, and/or quit to main menu and hit continue. After 24 hours (in-game time), return to the same location where the “Matchmaker” quest giver was. There you can now talk to Juliet, your first Love Interest. It should also show this as a side quest “(!) icon” on the map, called “as_sparker_2”, but this is likely a placeholder name, it appears this questline is somewhat unfinished at the game’s launch and is still missing proper quest names. Sometimes the quest marker can bug out too and only appears when you’re within 25 meters of it. If it’s not there, just do some other tasks and check back later.

Step 3: Second Love Interest – Vinnie

The next and final Love Interest is Vinnie (a companion of Juan who you will first meet in Main Quest 14: Welcome On Board). He will only spawn after completing “Welcome on Board” so be sure to advance the story first. He can also still spawn after the story. Once you’re far enough in the story, return to where the “Matchmaker” side quest giver was and where you talked to Juliet. This time you will find Vinnie there. Unlike Juliet he isn’t marked by a side quest marker on the map. His quest marker only shows when you are within 25 meters of him. The quest is called “as_sparker_3” on the map. Talk to Vinnie.

Step 4: Third Love Interest – Maya

To get the 3rd Sparker Love Interest “Maya” to spawn, you must first complete Side Quest: Sentimental Value. After doing this side quest, it should spawn “as_sparker_4”, same place where you met Juliet and Vinnie. Go back there to talk to Maya, then the trophy should unlock after talking to her. In some cases the trophy has a long delay and might take 5-30 minutes to pop while doing other tasks somewhere else. If Maya is not there, fast travel away, quit to title screen, click continue, sleep in bed, fast travel back and she should spawn.

Potential Bug: If you already completed Side Quest: Sentimental Value prior to talking to Juliet and Vinnie, it may skip this step entirely (Maya / “as_sparker_4” may never spawn). In this case it will skip ahead to the next step “as_sparker_epilogue”. In this scenario, there are reports that the trophy unlocks randomly 5-30 minutes after talking to Vinnie while doing other tasks elsewhere (without ever talking to Maya on the rooftop). In this scenario, whenever “as_sparker_epilogue” becomes available the trophy will unlock, see below.

Step 5: Sparker Questline Conclusion

This step isn’t needed for the trophy and is optional. There is one part to the Sparker questline called “as_sparker_epilogue”. Although doing this final quest isn’t needed for the trophy, once the trophy has unlocked you can let some time pass and return to the quest giver of “Matchmaker” one more time (same place) for a final dialogue that concludes the Sparker questline. Just like Vinnie, this quest may not show on the map by default and is instead triggered by proximity when within 25 meters of it (same rooftop where you talked to Juliet, Vinnie, Maya). If you get neither the trophy nor this quest, see the bug warning in Step 4. It’s all a bit buggy, but whenever the “as_sparker_epilogue” quest becomes available it should pop the Man on a Mission trophy and achievement.

So in total there are only 3 Love Interests, tied into the Sparker Questline, consisting of 5 sub-quests.

    There’s definitely more to it than just this. I have every achievement except this and the memento one. I’ve done all this requirement in this guide twice over on my main playthrough and with a co-op partner and no luck

    I talked to the guy in step 3 yesterday and I’ve played a good 4 hours since with no achievement popping. It could just be glitched for me but I’ve not had one achievement glitch/bug for me before this out of 55 other achievements so I doubt it’s a glitch but rather just no one actually knows the proper requirements

      Has the last quest “as_sparker_epilogue” shown up for you when you return to that location?

      I believe that is the actual trophy trigger, when the quest becomes available. That’s also why the trophy pops quite randomly several minutes later because that quest doesn’t spawn immediately.

      On another note, these quests don’t even have proper names in-game (apart from “Matchmaker”). Not sure if that’s the same on Xbox and PC but it seems like the devs forgot to put in proper quest names, the whole questline seems broken right now.

      No, when I go back there is no one there nor any further quests

      I haven’t done every single side quest in the game that weren’t tied to collectibles so I’ll slowly go through every single side quest and if it pops after completing a certain side quest I’ll let you know here, and yes, the quest names on Xbox are the same as on this guide.

      Update:
      Apparently there is a 3rd lover interest but it gets skipped and never spawns if you already completed Side Quest: Sentimental Value beforehand (probably a bug). That’s also the reason why the trophy can unlock without meeting this 3rd Love Interest.

      Doing “Sentimental Value” rewards you with a Music Box. Then a 4th quest “as_sparker_4” should spawn where you can talk to Maya. Doing this should then pop the trophy.

      In my case (as well as someone else I had double-check this) Maya never spawned there at all, probably because “Sentimental Value” was already completed prior to “Matchmaker”.
      Please try and let me know if that works for you after doing Maya’s part 🙂

    I’ve now done every single side quest in the game, including sentimental value which I did a long time ago before starting the matchmaker quest.

    I’ve been to the location where the 4th quest and maya should spawn 20+ times night and day but nothing spawns in.

    Probably safe to assume it’s just glitched for me because there’s literally no more side quests that I can do to trigger the “as_sparker_4” quest

    I’m going to be doing the whole quest line again tonight with a co-op partner starting from matchmaker and hopefully I’ll be able to verify your update above later as he hasn’t done sentimental value either.

      Just did the quest with a co-op partner. Can confirm that it was glitched on my save and that these steps are correct

      Thanks for confirming.
      Of course the one questline that is actually tied to a trophy/achievement is the most bugged in the game :D

    For me, Vinnie spawned first. After talking to him, I tried Juliet to spawn, but she never appeared. Then I did the “Sentimental Value” side quest, after which Maya immediately spawned. After talking to her, the trophy also immediately popped. So it’s also possible that no third person or epilogue is needed.

    I’m almost positive Maya will only show up if you give back the music box you retrieve instead of selling it, this isn’t part of the quest “Sentimental Value” btw but you can still give it back after the quest is complete, you can find her at the bazaar on the left side of the shop opposite of the craft master shop

      That’s normally not required, she spawns without doing that.

      But it’s a good tip, worth trying if for some reason she doesn’t appear.

      I did Maya’s side quest first and returned the music box, then talked to Vinnie, went back and forward and Maya showed up and after her conversation got the trophy.

    So it has come to my attention if you side with the PKs it can ruin the continuation of this quest. In my save there are basically no survivors in Villador except for the craft master’s apprentince. Pretty sure Vinnie is dead and so are the others since some of my sidequests disappeared too.

    is it possible to still date after you received the achievement?
