Several side quests in Diablo 4 are not immediately accessible, even if you have finished the Main Story Campaign. ❀They will require the completion of prior quests or the clearing of certain parts of thꦗe map. The Salt Begets is one such example, where the retaking of a Stronghold will transform a section of the map, allowing you to discover the fate of a certain beloved goat.
This gui♌de will tell you where to begin The Salt Begets Salt side quest, how to unlock the area, where to find every required objective, and what rewards the quest will grܫant you upon completion.
How To Complete The Salt Begets Salt Quest
To begin The Salt Begets side quest, you will want to travel to the Dry Steppes region. The Jirandai Waypoint is the closest teleport and from there you should head South until you reach an NPC named Jargal. He will be standing on the North side of the road between two broken stone pillars.
Jargal will task you with finding his lost goat, Tuji, claiming that a merchant has stolen him and begun traveling towards Qara Yisu. Qara Yisu is one of the three Strongholds in the Dry Steppes, and must first be cleared before you can co🐬mplete the quest.
Clearing a Stronghold involves completing several named objectives to take back control of the area from Lilith's forces. To reclaim Qara Yisu, you must first destroy three Infernal Spires around the fortress. They are large red pillars of rock and are norma😼lly surrounded by enemies, a cou🍸ple of which will be Elites.
🍃These Infernal Spires are marked as Skul𒁏ls on your mini-map
Once destroyed, you will be told to investigate the mine, which will require you to head North and defeat Utulku, a Forsaken♈ Shaman who will attack you will AoE lightning and Bil🐓efiends.
After the Stronghold has been reclaimed, you must locate Tuji's body, which is lying dead near a pile of rocks. Click on his body to receive a quest item called Tuji's Body which you must bring back to Jargal and inform him of his goat's demise. Despite his sadness, Jargal will reward you with Gold, Experience, Renown, and a randomised assortment of crafting materials for your efforts.
