Blackguard Big Boggart Interactions

Retrieving Rya's Necklace

Blackguard - Boilprawn Shack

The first significant interaction players will have with Blackguard Big Boggart happens during Rya's questline. Players will have to buy the necklace he stole from Rya for 1000 Runes.

If players keep talking to him and eye the boiling prawns, he will start selling Boiled Prawns. Buying them will unlock additional dialogue which eventually ends with Boggart befriending the Tarnished.

How to Save the Blackguard

To save Blackguard Big Boggart from dying to the Dung Eater later on, players should not buy prawns from him until you fight the Dung Eater in Leyndell's outer moat.

If done correctly, the Dung Eater will be confined to his cell at the Subterranean Shunning-Grounds and Big Boggart will be free to boil crabs in peace.

Dung Eater Questline and Location

Gold Summon for the Magma Wyrm Makar Boss Fight

Magma Wyrm Makar Boss

Blackguard Boggart will be an available gold summon for the Magma Wyrm Makar boss fight at the Ruin-Strewn Precipice in Liurnia. During the fight, he can be seen wielding his Iron Ball weapons.

The next time players encounter Boggart will be at the outer moat of Leyndell in the Altus Plateau, near the capital city's eastern side. He will be beside a small body of water, boiling crabs.

Speak to him and he will tell you more about his time as a prisoner as well as his fear of the corpse-defiling Dung Eater.

Boggart's Death

Death of Blackguard

If players have progressed the Dung Eater's questline to where he will invade the outer moat, Boggart will eventually die.

Speak to Boggart, and if he says that the Dung Eater is lurking in the area, returning to his location will see him dead and his corpse defiled.

Drops a Seedbed Curse

Seedbed Curse

Once Boggart dies, players can loot his body for a bunch of items. This includes his Bell Bearing (which can be given to the Twin Maiden Husks to access his merchant inventory), his Iron Mask, his Iron Ball weapon, as well as a Seedbed Curse (used in the Dung Eater's questline).

Blackguard Big Boggart Shop Items

Items Sold Price
Boiled Prawn 600 Runes
Boiled Crab* 600 Runes
Rya's Necklace 1000 Runes

Boiled Crab will only unlock as a purchaseable item if players meet Boggart at the outer moat of Leyndell.

Lore and Trivia

The Boilprawn Man

  • Like many of the Tarnished players encounter in the game, Blackguard Big Boggart is another who has lost their ability to see the guidance of grace. As such, he wanders the Lands Between looking for opportunities to survive.
  • It is shared by Boggart later on that he was also imprisoned in Leyndell, sharing the same gaol as the loathsome Dung Eater. It is there that he witnessed the horrific murder of his friend, the memory of which he carries to this day.

Trivia

  • While certainly villainous at the start, Boggart will soon prove a good judge of character, especially when players find out the truth behind Rya.
  • If players read the item description of the Boiled Prawn Boggart sells, they will know that the prawn is in fact crayfish.

Blackguard Big Boggart Quotes

"You're Tarnished too, ain'tcha? Can you see it then? The guidance of grace, I mean. I can't see it at all no more. Makes no bloody sense anyway, why some no-name like me should get called to the Lands Between."
"Oh, I see. You want some of me prawn? Freshly cooked, it is. Alright then. It's yours, if you can meet me price."
"Mate, there's somethin' I should probably tell ya. You 'eard of the Dung Eater? E's a madman, 'as it out for everyone. Curses 'em. Goes 'round in this rank armour, an' all. You see 'im though, stay well away."
"Never met someone with a taste for crab I couldn't trust. We've got a real thing here, eh, and it's only gettin' better."
"Yeah...and now I seen it 'ere, again. Never thought I would. What 'e does to those bodies. It was...It was 'im, no question. That monster. He's lurkin' round 'ere."
"Help me out, would ya, mate...I don't wanna get cursed. Just let me die...I don't wanna live like this...not anymore...So, please..."
