Sussur Tree Bark is crucial if you want to complete the “Finish the Masterwork Weapon” quest in Baldur’s Gate 3. It is an essential crafting ingredient that will enable you to forge a legendary Sussur weapon of your choice.
You can start the quest after reading a note inside the cellar of a destroyed house (Necromancer’s House) in the Blighted Village. You’ll also find a forge in the same house, which will be dormant. This quest asks for a Sussur Tree bark, which can only be found in the Underdark. So, to craft a masterpiece weapon, you will need to enter one of the most dangerous places in the game and get a Sussur Tree Bark.
