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.Table of contentsHow to finish the Mangled Message in Diablo 4 Season 12How to get the Skill Point from Mangled Message in Diablo 4 Season 12How 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 SlaughterTransform into the Butcher during the Ceremony of Slaughter eventDestroy everything you can find in a Slaughterhouse The tasks are relatively straightforward, but you'll need a bit of time to complete them.
