Breaking the Bone Barriers in Sunlit Plateau

To break the bone barriers in Disney Dreamlight Valley, you’ll need to complete the following quests with Scar:

  • Nature & Nurture
  • Friends Aren’t Food
  • Breaking Bones
  • The Circle of Life

Scar’s first mission will trigger when you unlock Sunlit Plateau and finish the ‘The Curse’ storyline with Mother Gothel. For additional help with this task, you can check out our guide about the Nature & Nurture quest.

Players must reach level 2 in Scar’s friendship level, and open Remy’s restaurant to unlock the Friends Aren’t Food mission. In this quest, you’ll design the Brown Faux-Fur Trimmed Jacket by obtaining various items, such as Fiber, Fabric, Citrine, and Iron Ingot. After you create this clothing, Scar will ask you to talk to Remy, where you’ll need to cook the Tekka Maki and Sake Maki recipes (he will give you two recipe books.)

Lastly, players can find Remy and Scar on the map to listen to their conversation, thus completing this narrative.

Breaking Bones Quest in Disney Dreamlight Valley

The Breaking Bones quest will provide you with a Shovel upgrade, which can get rid of small amounts of bones at Sunlit Plateau (reach Level 3 in Scar’s friendship.) Scrooge McDuck will help players with this task by giving a list of materials: Lion’s Claws, Dry Wood, and Iron Ingot. The Lion’s Claws might be a bit tricky to get since you’ll need to look around the cliffs of Sunlit Plateau.

To help with this part of the story, players can look around these areas (dig up sparkling spots within this location):

After you’ve crafted the Lion’s Claw Shovel Head, go to your inventory and press ‘Use’ to improve your Shovel.

You’ll be able to fully enhance your Shovel in the Circle of Life quest once you’ve reached Level 7 in Scar’s friendship. With this mission, Mother Gothel will assist you and Scar by giving you another list of items for the upgrade: Purified Night Shards and Old Bones. Players can create Purified Night Shards (Night and Dream Shards) at the crafting table and obtain the Old Bones at Vitalys Mines.

When you’ve accomplished this feat, you can plant the Flower of Bones in Sunlit Plateau and wait for it to harvest (this part should take less than a day.) Next, players can craft the Roaring Shovel Head and remove the bone barriers around Sunlit Plateau.
