The Statues Are Alive
The Statues Are Alive is a Dark and Darker quest assigned by the Weaponsmith merchant, part of the Forging A Legacy quest line. Some fool came into the Tavern last night speaking of “Living Statues” flying around the Ruins... I haven’t ever seen such a thing, but would you mind taking a look? The objective is to kill 2× living statue. 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 Weaponsmith in the lobby to turn in the quest and receive the reward. This quest requires completing Tombstone before it becomes available from Weaponsmith. Completing The Statues Are Alive rewards 50 Gold, 3x Trap Disarming Kit, 3x Protection Potion, 50 XP. The quest is completed in Crypts. 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 Weaponsmith quest chain unlocks higher reward tiers and increases merchant affinity, which can affect prices and open additional quest tiers in future seasons. The Forging A Legacy chain provides a structured progression path through the Weaponsmith 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.
