In the lawless lands of Pywel in Crimson Desert, the line between hero and mercenary is as thin as a blade. If you’ve been scouring the notice boards in Delesyia, you’ve likely seen the face of Duran—a slippery outlaw wanted for his role in the Greymane conflicts.

Capturing Duran isn’t just about the silver; it’s about proving your worth to the Delesyian authorities. Here is your step-by-step guide to tracking down and bringing this rogue to justice.

Step-by-Step Walkthrough

  1. Examine the Notice: Grab the bounty from the purple notice board in Delesyia. Hold LB (Xbox) or L1 (PlayStation) to examine the poster, which will mark Duran’s general vicinity near the Halssius House of Healing.
  2. The Approach: Duran is disguised and hiding among the wounded. Approach the House of Healing quietly. If you rush in, Duran will panic and attempt to bolt toward the nearby cliffs.
  3. The Tackle: Once you spot him, sprint and use the Tackle mechanic. On a controller, this is typically Circle/B while sprinting.
  4. Subdue and Restrain: Punch him exactly three times to “soften him up.” Once the prompt appears, use your rope to Restrain him.
  5. The Extraction: Pick him up and whistle for your mount. Mount your horse while carrying Duran and ride back to the Delesyia City Jail.

FAQs

Why did I only receive half the reward?

Bounty rewards are halved if the target dies during capture. Ensure you only punch the target a few times to subdue them—using your sword or high-level magic will likely kill them instantly.

What if Duran escapes?

If Duran manages to reach the wilderness and despawn, simply ride a short distance away or rest at a nearby campfire. He will respawn at his original location at the Halssius House of Healing after a short time. For more quest troubleshooting, check out our latest community guides.
