Hands of Precision
Hands of Precision is a Dark and Darker quest assigned by the Goldsmith merchant, part of the The Reason Behind the Skill quest line. Gem socketing is an extremely delicate craft. Lose focus for even a moment, and the whole piece is ruined. Opportunities to work with high-grade gems are rare, which only makes me more particular. That said, do you think you could bring me a few rare gemstones, if possible? 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 Gold, Random Uncommon Weapon, 75 XP. The quest is completed in Ice Cavern, Goblin Caves, Ruins or Ship Graveyard. 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.
