More Than Meets The Eye
More Than Meets The Eye is a Dark and Darker quest assigned by the Alchemist merchant, part of the Always Intrigued quest line. You've no doubt heard of the Frost Wolves. Rumors say they are guarding something precious, but I believe there is more to it. What I have learned through potions and alchemy is that the world is far more complex than it appears. Investigate what it is they are keeping from us. If something powerful is hidden there, it may hold the answers to many questions. The objective is to explore wolf cave. All progress requires a successful extraction — items retrieved or kills made during a failed run do not count toward quest completion. Once every objective is fulfilled, return to Alchemist in the lobby to turn in the quest and receive the reward. This quest requires completing The Kobolds Chemistry before it becomes available from Alchemist. Completing More Than Meets The Eye rewards 125 Gold, Random Rare Armor, 350 XP. The quest is completed in Ice Cavern. Merchant quests in Dark and Darker are one of the most consistent gold and experience sources in the game, independent of loot luck on the Trading Post. Completing the full Alchemist quest chain unlocks higher reward tiers and increases merchant affinity, which can affect prices and open additional quest tiers in future seasons. The Always Intrigued chain provides a structured progression path through the Alchemist quest tree, and finishing each quest in order is the fastest route to the higher value objectives later in the line. Use the MetaBot Dark and Darker quest tracker to check all open objectives across every active merchant before extracting, so you can turn in multiple quests from a single run and get the most value out of each session.
