Hands of Precision•The Reason Behind the Skill

Hands of Precision is a Dark and Darker quest assigned by the Goldsmith merchant, part of the The Reason Behind the Skill quest line. There are 4 objectives to complete: Bring 2× Blue Sapphire; Bring 2× Diamond; Bring 2× Emerald; Bring 2× Ruby. 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 Goldsmith in the lobby to turn in the quest and receive the reward. This quest requires completing Finer Gem before it becomes available from Goldsmith. Completing Hands of Precision rewards 🪙 100, Random Uncommon Weapon, 75 XP. 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 Goldsmith quest chain unlocks higher reward tiers and increases merchant affinity, which can affect prices and open additional quest tiers in future seasons. The The Reason Behind the Skill chain provides a structured progression path through the Goldsmith 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.
