The second quest in Act II (also, the most important in the act) can be activated by locating any pieces of the Horadric staff and returning them to Deckard Cain in Lut Gholein. The easiest way to activate the quest is by completing the first quest in Act II, Radament's lair, and obtaining the Horadric scroll from the marked chest on the third level of the sewers. Return the scroll to Deckard Cain to activate the quest. Act II Bestiary: The "Swarm" monster class can be found in some of Act II's outer deserts. These tight clusters of insects - including Act II's itches, black locusts, and plague bugs - are highly resistant to physical damage with 60, 70, and 80 percent damage resistance respectively. Act II, Quest II Objective from Cain "Ahh... The lost Horadric Scroll! What a fortunate turn of events... As the last living Horadrim, I alone have knowledge of its meaning. Now, to read the Horadric runes it bears... Hmmm... The Horadric Mages, after binding Baal within Tal Rasha, magically sealed off his Burial Chamber from the mortal realm. Those same Mages also crafted fearsome Horadric Staves and imbued them with the special power to open the Chamber's hidden door. After nearly losing one to the thievery of a rogue sorcerer, they divided all the Horadric Staves into two parts - wooden shaft and metal headpiece - hiding them separately to safeguard them. The Horadrim foresaw our current plight and designed the hiding places to reveal themselves to worthy heroes like you. Collect both parts of a Horadric Staff and unite them using a Horadric Cube. Then, you may enter Tal Rasha's Burial Chamber." Act II, Quest II Location The Horadric staff quest takes you all through the Act II maps. In fact, many elements of the Horadric staff quest overlap with other quests you'll discover throughout the act. The Horadric staff carries several important pieces, all located in a different area of Act II. The Horadric Scroll: Though the scroll doesn't form part of the eventual staff, it's still the easiest way to activate the quest. Locate the Horadric scroll in a marked chest near Radament's lair on the third sewer level. Take the scroll to Deckard Cain to activate the Horadric staff quest.
UNIQUE MONSTER: Inside the halls of the dead, level 3 protecting the Horadric cube, you'll encounter Bloodwitch the Wild, an extra strong (increasing damage by three-fold and to hit percentage) and cursed huntress.
