Follow this Hogwarts Legacy guide to complete the 'Beeting' A Curse side quest. Learn how to find Dale's Tomb, defeat the Riparian Troll, and return Marmaduke's crest.
Walkthrough
- 1Speak with Samantha Dale at the Greenhouse Floo Flame to accept the 'Beeting' A Curse side quest.
- 2Receive the "Crest of Marmaduke Gilbertus Dale" from Samantha.
- 3Follow the quest marker to Dale's Tomb, located on the east side of Hogwarts Valley.
- 4Upon entering, proceed down the main hallway and take the first left to find a chest containing Frameless Tinted Spectacles.
- 5Continue into the tomb. You will encounter Devil's Snare; use the Luminose spell to clear a path. Avoid touching it, as it results in instant death.
- 6A slip down a rubble hill will lead you to a Riparian Troll, an Infamous Foe. Use Protego and projectile spells, and dodge its attacks. Building combos increases your Ancient Magic meter. Revelio is not useful in this area.
- 7After defeating the troll, head southeast to find Marmaduke's Sarcophagus.
- 8Place the Crest of Marmaduke Gilbertus Dale on the sarcophagus. Pick up the Dittany leaves and check the nearby bag for a loosened crimson lock scarf.
- 9Exit the tomb by following the white map marker. Use Revelio on your way out to find additional items.
- 10Return to Samantha Dale to report your success.
