Final Preparations

Final Preparations is a Dark and Darker quest assigned by the Miner merchant, part of the The Fire That Will Not End quest line. Fire spirits and elementals are beings that aid Ignir in restoring his strength. They act as conduits, gathering the power of fire and delivering it to him. If left alone, the scattered power will quickly come together again. To slow that process, even if only a little, we must eliminate them. There are 2 objectives to complete: Kill 15× Fire Spirit; Kill 15× Fire Elemental. 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 Miner in the lobby to turn in the quest and receive the reward. This quest requires completing To find an opening before it becomes available from Miner. Completing Final Preparations rewards 350 XP, 150 Gold, Random Epic Weapon, Random Epic Armor. The quest is completed in Goblin Caves. 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 Miner quest chain unlocks higher reward tiers and increases merchant affinity, which can affect prices and open additional quest tiers in future seasons. The The Fire That Will Not End chain provides a structured progression path through the Miner 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.
