The catacombs are the same environment as every other one in the game. Where to find and kill Morbent Fel:

1. Descend into the Catacombs.
2. Turn left and go across the wide-open room.
3. Turn left again to the smaller room.
4. Go to the northwest corner of the smaller room, and look for a gap in the wall.
5. Go through the gap and follow the tunnel until you get to the lab room (shown on the dungeon map of the east to the smaller room).
6. Kill any mobs on your way to Morbent, but don't worry about the ones behind him - as soon as you kill him, they'll all fall over dead.

Description

<You attach the arch to the rod, and the artifact is nearly complete. A large gap still sits at the center of the holy symbol's head.> <Once again you feel it tug your arm, urging you towards the hole in the wall and the winding tunnel ahead. The last piece must be through there.>

Where to go

Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.
