In the world of Dark and Darker, every item you come across serves a purpose, and some have a bit of mystery surrounding them. The Ancient Scroll is one such item that, at first glance, might leave players scratching their heads. Despite its name, this item isn't tied to spells or combat directly, but it does hold value for specific situations. Here's a breakdown of what Ancient Scrolls are and how to make the most of them.

What Are Ancient Scrolls?

Ancient Scrolls are collectible items found during dungeon runs. While they might look like powerful magical artifacts, their primary use is more straightforward. These scrolls aren't combat tools but rather valuable commodities tied to quests and trade.

Uses for Ancient Scrolls

Quest Completion

Occasionally, merchants in Dark and Darker will task you with quests that require Ancient Scrolls. These quests typically reward players with gold, experience, or valuable items upon completion. Keep an eye on the quest boards or interact with merchants to see if they're requesting Ancient Scrolls.

Selling to the Collector

When not needed for quests, Ancient Scrolls can be sold to the Collector for a tidy profit. The value of an Ancient Scroll depends on its tier, with higher-tier scrolls fetching more gold.

How Much Are They Worth?

Ancient Scrolls are an excellent source of income for players looking to stockpile gold. Depending on the tier, you can earn 50+ gold per scroll. This makes them a valuable find for players saving up for:

Slot upgrades (to carry more items out of the dungeon).

Rarer items from the marketplace or merchants.

Tips for Collecting and Selling Ancient Scrolls

Prioritize Inventory Space: Ancient Scrolls take up inventory slots, so ensure you have enough space to carry them out of the dungeon, especially if you're aiming to maximize your loot value.

Assess Risk vs. Reward: If your inventory is full, weigh the value of Ancient Scrolls against other loot. Scrolls are generally worth keeping for their gold value.

Sell Regularly: Don't hoard scrolls for too long—sell them between runs to avoid losing them during a dungeon wipe.

Conclusion

While Ancient Scrolls might not enhance your combat prowess, they are a reliable source of gold and an occasional quest item. Whether you're turning them in to merchants for quest rewards or selling them to the Collector for a hefty payout, these scrolls are worth picking up during your runs. Make the most of them and Dark and Darker gold to fund your adventures and secure the gear you need to conquer Dark and Darker's perilous dungeons.
