According to Dorys, Cole and his fellow Cursebreakers are currently somewhere in The Dragon’s Aery. To begin the search for them, Clive shouldfast-travel to The Dragon’s AeryObelisk andhead west toward The Holy Hand. Following the dirt path, players will spot Cole and his group of Cursebreakers to the left, just behind a tree.
Speaking with Cole, he will explain to Clive that, though he managed to rescue a few Bearers, some were left behind. He goes on to say that the remaining Bearers can be found to the south, prompting Clive to look for them.
Where To Find The Bearers
From Cole’s position, Clive should head directly south until he stumbles upon a wrecked carriage surrounded by Goblins. According to Cole, the remaining Bearers are trapped inside the carriage, so Clive will need to deal with the nearby Goblins before they can be freed.
Upon approaching the carriage, threeLevel 28 Goblin Leechersand aLevel 28 Gigas Bruiserwill launch an attack. Defeating the Goblin Leechers is pretty straightforward, but the Gigas Bruiser can take a little more work.
