Completing Ursula’s main questline in Disney Dreamlight Valley involves a series of tasks that ultimately reward you with the Sea Witch’s Gown. The primary quest, often referred to as “A Deal With Ursula,” focuses on collecting Dark Crystals and using them to activate pillars, ultimately bringing forth a special crystal to complete the quest. This article will guide you through the process step-by-step and address common questions related to Ursula and her quests.
The Core of “A Deal With Ursula” Quest
The final stage of Ursula’s quest involves retrieving three Dark Crystals and placing them on specific pillars in different biomes. Once all three crystals are correctly placed, a special crystal will appear. You must collect this special crystal and return it to Ursula. Upon handing it over, Ursula will reward you with the Sea Witch’s Gown, completing the quest. This final stage of the quest unlocks after reaching certain friendship levels and completing preliminary quests with her.
How to Initiate Ursula’s Questline
Freeing Ursula
First, you must unlock the Dazzle Beach biome by spending 1,000 Dreamlight. Once unlocked, find the cave on the west side of the beach. Inside, you’ll encounter Ursula, who is trapped and requires assistance to be set free. She’ll provide you with a Crystal Key.
Using the Crystal Key
Use the Crystal Key to unlock another cave on Dazzle Beach. This will progress the initial quest and allow you to start the main portion of the questline. This is the location where most of Ursula’s related quests begin and where you will return to her frequently.
Building Ursula’s House
After freeing Ursula, she will request you place her home in the water. Head to the Dazzle Beach shoreline and open your Backpack. Place the construction site for Ursula’s Cave anywhere in the sea. To finalize the construction, interact with the Scrooge McDuck sign and pay 10,000 Star Coins.
Finding the Dark Crystals
The First Dark Crystal
After beginning her main quest, the first Dark Crystal location is provided to you by Ursula. Typically, it will be within Dazzle Beach. Once you’ve retrieved it, you must place it within the first pillar to activate the next part of the quest. Once the first crystal is returned the next three will spawn around the map.
The Subsequent Dark Crystals
Following the first crystal, the next three Dark Crystals will appear in the following locations:
- The Sunlit Plateau: Head to the western pond, go over the bridge, and past the Vitalys Mine. The crystal will be nearby.
- The Glade Of Trust: You’ll find a crystal at the base of Mother Gothel’s tree.
- The Frosted Heights: A crystal will be in the general vicinity.
Note: You need to have unlocked these three biomes prior to retrieving the crystals.
Placing the Dark Crystals
Once you have all three Dark Crystals, ensure you place each one in the corresponding pillar. Once all three have been placed, the special crystal will materialize.
Returning the Special Crystal
Collect the special crystal that appears near the pillars after all the Dark Crystals have been placed. Take it back to Ursula in her cave on Dazzle Beach. She will reward you with the Sea Witch’s Gown upon receiving the special crystal and the quest will be completed.
Ursula’s Friendship and Quest Progression
Friendship with Ursula
It’s essential to understand that Ursula’s friendship progression is a little different than most villagers. You cannot assign her a task as you can with other characters once you reach friendship level two. To increase her friendship, you need to:
- Talk to her daily.
- Complete her quests.
- Give her gifts she likes.
Friendship Rewards
Building a relationship with Ursula will unlock unique rewards as you reach higher friendship levels. These can range from specific crafting recipes to unique pieces of furniture or clothing.
