How to get the free Skill Point in Diablo 4 Season 12 Mangled Message

The Mangled Message objective has left many players in a pickle in Diablo 4 Season 12. The objective, when finished, is supposed to reward you with a free skill point.

However, the problem lay with finishing the objective in the first place. While Blizzard seems to have removed the bug as of writing, the process of obtaining the Skill Point is still pretty complex.

How to finish the Mangled Message in Diablo 4 Season 12

The Mangled Message has three tasks to complete.

• Change into the Butcher at a Shrine of Slaughter
• Transform into the Butcher during the Ceremony of Slaughter event
• Destroy everything you can find in a Slaughterhouse

The tasks are relatively straightforward, but you’ll need a bit of time to complete them. It’s also better to have Bloodied Items since they offer affixes. This will make your life easier. You’ll also need to complete A Taste of Power, where you’ll encounter a Slaughterhouse.

Out of the three tasks, the Ceremony of Slaughter is likely going to be the hardest one. It’s a PvP activity, so you should aim to play at a time when there are fewer players on your server. Complete the objectives until the Butcher’s Idol spawns on the map.

How to get the Skill Point from Mangled Message in Diablo 4 Season 12

Here’s the tricky aspect: to get the Skill Point, you’ll need to switch to a level 1 character. The Skill Point, for some unknown reason, can only be used with a fresh level 1 character. I am unsure about the logic behind this, and hopefully, Blizzard will change it soon so that we can use it on our existing characters.

Once you’ve switched to a fresh character, speak with the NPC and open the Season tab on the menu to get your Skill Point.
