Finish the Masterwork Weapon is an early-game quest you can pick up as you wander around the Blighted Village and read Highcliff’s journal in Baldur’s Gate 3. The quest ends with you needing to find the Melting Furnace to obtain a Sussur Weapon.

In this guide, you’ll learn precisely how to get to the Melting Furnace in BG3 so you can complete the Finish the Masterwork Weapon quest.

Melting Furnace location in Baldur’s Gate 3

The Melting Furnace is in the Blighted Village behind a pair of Shabby Doors, or more specifically, at (X: 46, Y: 412). The Melting Furnace is the final piece of the Finish the Masterwork Weapon quest. With the Sussar Tree Bark in your inventory, along with a standard Greatsword, Dagger, or Sickle, you can use the Melting Furnace to craft your Sussur weapon.

Don’t go up the stairs and into the main part of the house, however. Instead, you need to lockpick the basement doors right underneath where a goblin guard is standing (or used to be standing if you killed them). Once the door is unlocked, head inside and go down the stairs until you see a fireplace.

To use the Melting Furnace, click on the fireplace and insert the Sussur Tree Bark in the box that appears. This makes the furnace start boiling. From here, you can combine your normal weapon with the furnace to create a Sussur version of it. Each of the three Sussur variants can silence an enemy when you hit them, which is extremely useful in the early game of Baldur’s Gate 3.

Author’s Note

I chose the Greatsword for my paladin, but going with the Dagger or Sickle is just as beneficial for high Dexterity characters as well.

Once the weapon is forged, you can take it out of the furnace, and Finish the Masterwork Weapon will be complete.
