Get Forbidden Curse Scroll from Daily Commission

Forbidden Curse Scroll can be obtained from Lv.60+ Samachurls, and there are six types of Samachurls for each element. These enemies can be easily encountered in Daily Commissions that involve attacking them and their camps.

Visit Hilichurl Camps in Various Areas

Sizes of Hilichurl Camps
Small	These camps don't have much structures. Only a few hilichurls can be found here.
Medium	These areas have watchtowers and are often Daily Commission targets. Ranged hilichurls and samachurls can be found here.
Large	These village-like settlements contain a large amount of melee and ranged hilichurls.

You can also get Forbidden Curse Scroll from the various hilichurl camps across the map. Camps with watchtowers are ideal targets since they are often manned by ranged hilichurls, so it's recommended to scout out these locations before attacking.

Note: Forbidden Curse Scroll will not drop unless the enemy's level is 60 or higher.
