Partway through The Singing Blade quest in , players will need to clear a bridge of blight to progress. This can be challenging due to how blight is cleared, but there are specific steps to make it easier.
This is just one of the game’s many puzzles, but it is important since it is part of the main quest line. There are a lot of different quests in, some of which require fighting big enemies, and others require a lot of puzzling.
This quest requires a little bit of both, but clearing the blight will mostly involve the puzzle side. Once you make your way to the bridge, you will not be able to cross or progress the quest until it's cleared.
You willreturn to a Ritual Site you visited earlier in this quest to find. Your companion, Harding, in , is particularly interested in the matter.
However, you will not find the dagger right away. Instead, you will find a Darkspawn Ghoul at the site and have to chase it into the ruins as it runs away.
