The Magic Rock quest is one of the simplest in the game. It simply requires you to find a meteorite and return it to Griswold. He will use it to make the Empyrean Band, a unique ring.

Magic Rock

  • Quest Name: Magic Rock
  • Triggered By: Entering the catacombs (level 5).
  • Frequency: Single player only; this quest occurs 2/3 of the time.
  • Given by: Griswold.
  • Location: Dungeon level 5.
  • Reward: Empyrean Band unique ring.

Empyrean Band
+2 to all Attributes
+20% Light Radius
Fast Hit Recovery
Absorbs Half of Trap Damage

This is about the easiest quest in the game. Find the magic rock on a table, take it back to Griswold, and he gives you a unique ring for your trouble.

When Griswold gives you the quest he spins a wild yarn about a sky rock that fell to earth and a caravan that carried it and monsters that ambushed them and stole it away. But when you actually find the meteorite, it's just sitting on a small table in the Catacombs. Unguarded.

It seems likely that this quest had more to it in the planning stages, but that somehow during the game development the complications were lost, and it's now a boring "retrieve for reward" exercise.

Strategy Tips

Don't miss the table with the dark rock in the dark catacombs. And um... be sure you've got a 2x2 inventory space clear. Tricky stuff, this.
