Key Takeaways
- Blix is located near Nas Riverside and Unicorn Cliff, often inside a mountain crevice or patrolling nearby.
- Capturing Blix alive requires a stealth approach, not direct combat.
- Bringing Blix back alive gives the full 15 Silver reward, while killing him reduces the payout.
The early hours of Crimson Desert are packed with side activities, but bounties stand out as one of the fastest ways to earn silver. Among them, the Crimson Desert Blix Bounty is often the first real challenge players run into. It looks simple on paper, but finding Blix and bringing him in alive can quickly turn frustrating if you don’t know what to expect.
This guide breaks everything down clearly. From where to find Blix in Crimson Desert to how to capture him alive for the full reward, here’s exactly what you need to do.
How to Start the Crimson Desert Blix Bounty

To begin the Crimson Desert Blix Bounty, you need to pick up his wanted poster in Hernand City. These posters appear on notice boards or wooden poles around the streets once you reach Chapter 2.
Look for a purple poster icon on your mini map. Interact with the poster and use the observe option to accept the bounty. If you do not see it right away, progress through a few main quests and check again.
Once accepted, the quest will be added to your journal under the Hernand faction. Mark it to track Blix’s location.
Where is Blix in Crimson Desert

Blix is not located inside Hernand like some early bounties. You will need to travel out of the city.
His main location is around Nas Riverside, near Unicorn Cliff. The marker will lead you to a large mountain crevice where his gang usually sets up camp.
In some cases, Blix may not be inside the crevice. He can also patrol the nearby road between the cliff and the river with a group of goblins.
If you reach the location and only see other enemies or no one at all, do not worry. This is common. Rest at a nearby bonfire for 6 to 12 hours and return. He should spawn after that.
Blix Not Spawning? Here’s What to Do
If Blix is missing when you arrive, you are not alone. This happens often.
Here’s how to fix it:
- Rest at a nearby bonfire for at least 6 hours
- Return to the crevice location
- Check both the hideout and nearby patrol paths
- Repeat the process if needed
Sometimes only his guards appear without him. In that case, reset the area again.
How to Complete the Blix Bounty Quest in Crimson Desert

Once you find Blix, the fight begins almost immediately. He will be surrounded by goblin bandits, and they will attack as soon as you get close.
Here’s the safest way to complete the quest:
- Identify Blix among the group. He usually has no armor and stands out compared to the others. You can also track him using the red outlaw icon on the mini map.
- Do not rush in blindly if you want the full reward. Focus on the goblin guards first.
- Pull enemies away one by one if needed and clear the area.
- Once Blix is alone, create distance so he drops aggro.
- Enter stealth, circle behind him, and wait for the tackle prompt.
- Tackle him from behind and knock him down.
- Hit him a few times until you get the tie up option.
After tying him up, pick him up and call your horse.
How to Capture Blix in Crimson Desert (Alive)

Capturing Blix alive is the only way to get the full bounty reward, and this is where most players fail.
If you attack him directly during combat, even with basic hits, he can die quickly. That cuts your reward in half.
The correct method is stealth:
- Let Blix disengage after the fight
- Approach from behind while crouched
- Use the tackle prompt instead of attacking
- Tie him up after knocking him down
This guarantees a non-lethal capture.
Once secured, place him on your horse and head back to Hernand City.
Take Blix to the constabulary or jail in Hernand City. This is where all bounty targets are turned in. Interact with the guards to complete the quest and claim your reward.
Crimson Desert Blix Bounty Rewards

The reward depends on how you handle the target:
- Bring Blix alive: 15 Silver
- Bring Blix dead: Around 7 to 10 Silver
Silver is extremely useful early in the game, especially for gear upgrades and supplies. That is why it is worth taking the extra effort to capture him alive.
The Crimson Desert Blix Bounty is less about combat and more about patience. The enemies are easy, but the real challenge is handling Blix correctly.
Clear the guards, reset his aggro, and approach from stealth. Once you get the timing right, the quest becomes simple and repeatable.
Handle it well, and this early bounty becomes one of the best ways to build up your silver quickly.
