Arcanist Malrodi is found in the Court of Stars. She is required to complete this world quest and will only spawn when the world quest is active.
Having trouble finding her?
- After killing the first boss (Patrol Captain Gerdo) proceed as normal up the stairs to the right.
- Follow the spiral stairs all the way up to the top, leave that building and enter the door directly in front of you, like normal.
- Instead of going to the right down the stairs, go up to the left.
- You'll find this NPC in front of a hookah on a balcony overlooking the rest of the dungeon.
Good luck, and happy hunting!
