WHY PLAYERS GET STUCK
Despite the title, this is not an Ashes of Malmouth Fleshworks quest; it is a Base Game Act 1 quest. Both targets spawn together beside a house on the left of the northbound road in the Moldering Fields.
WALKTHROUGH
- 1Accept Harmond's request
- ▸Complete the prerequisite quest Something for Nothing.
- ▸Speak to Harmond outside Devil's Crossing and accept the job.
- ▸The targets are Balros, the Malformed and Hagra, the Tormented.
- 2Travel to the Moldering Fields
- ▸Travel to the Burrwitch Outskirts Rift.
- ▸Follow the northbound road into the Moldering Fields.
- ▸Look for a house on the left side of the road; both targets spawn beside it.
- 3Kill Balros and Hagra
- ▸Because the two targets stand together, clear nearby enemies and pull them apart if necessary.
- ▸Balros uses Physical and Fire attacks; Hagra uses Physical and Cold attacks. Take particular care to avoid Hagra's freezing projectile.
- ▸Kill both and confirm that the quest log updates to the turn-in objective.
- 4Report to Harmond
- ▸Return to Devil's Crossing and report to Harmond.
- ▸After completing the Act 5 quest Inquisitor Creed, Harmond disappears and Sergeant Havos outside the gate becomes the turn-in contact.
- ▸Normal rewards are 450 XP, 1,200 Iron, and 3 Scrap; XP and Iron increase on Elite and Ultimate.
STILL LOST?
Return to the Burrwitch Outskirts Rift and follow the northbound road. In the Moldering Fields, check the house on the left. If Harmond is gone when turning in, find Sergeant Havos outside Devil's Crossing.
Prerequisite: Something for Nothing. Advancing to Act 5 changes the turn-in contact to Sergeant Havos, so the quest remains completable and is not missable.
