Recommended Level to Complete Act V, Quest III: Both the Crystalline Passage and, especially, the Frozen River offer the toughest fights yet in the fifth act. You may wish to explore the two possible side dungeons encountered so far to gain experience. Descend into Abaddon from the Frigid Highlands or into the Pit of Acheron within the Arreat Plateau. You should ideally have gained a couple of levels when you defeated Diablo. Experience jumps as you battle the Act V monsters, and you will find yourself gaining levels more quickly than you did in Act IV. | Recommended Level to Complete Act V, Quest III: Both the Crystalline Passage and, especially, the Frozen River offer the toughest fights yet in the fifth act.

Look for Anya under the Crystalline Passage by the Frozen River. | "Look for Anya under the Crystalline Passage by the Frozen River." | ||
Exit Harrogath and use the waypoint system to proceed directly to the Frigid Highlands or the Arreat Plateau (if you triggered the waypoint before returning back to Harrogath from the second quest). Alternatively, you can exit Harrogath and proceed through the Bloody Highlands and move to the Frigid Highlands and then to the Arreat Plateau. | Exit Harrogath and use the waypoint system to proceed directly to the Frigid Highlands or the Arreat Plateau (if you triggered the waypoint before returning back to Harrogath from the second quest).

Rescue Anya. | "Rescue Anya." | ||
Once you reach the Frozen River and get close to Anya's position, a new entry appears in your quest logbook. The Frozen River contains several new beasts, including the abominable, frozen creepers, and the succubus. Cold resistance pays off in the Frozen River; tough monsters to fight plus your slow speed as a result of cold damage could prove extremely difficult for you or your party. | Once you reach the Frozen River and get close to Anya's position, a new entry appears in your quest logbook.

Talk to Malah. | "Talk to Malah." | ||
After you have spoken with Anya, she instructs you to return to Harrogath and talk with Malah. There's nothing you can do about Anya's ice prison, but Malah may have a solution. Open a town portal scroll (though you could take the long way or use the waypoint at the Crystalline Passage to return to Harrogath) and proceed through back to Harrogath. | After you have spoken with Anya, she instructs you to return to Harrogath and talk with Malah.

Use the potion Malah gave you to thaw Anya. | "Use the potion Malah gave you to thaw Anya." | ||
After returning through the portal, using the waypoints, or making the trip on foot, approach Anya and her prison of ice with Malah's special potion in your inventory. Speak with Anya to automatically use Malah's potion. The ice holding Anya captive thaws and Anya escapes. She enters a town portal automatically and without a word. Don't worry. She'll offer plenty of thanks soon enough! | After returning through the portal, using the waypoints, or making the trip on foot, approach Anya and her prison of ice with Malah's special potion in your inventory.

Anya shows her gratitude with an item reward as well as the trigger to the next quest in Act V. Speak with Anya and you receive a rare class-specific item. After you have completed the quest and Anya is safe back in Harrogath, she takes on Nihlathak's former role--you can now gamble for items with Anya. You can also purchase some armor and weapons from her. Speaking with Anya after receiving your reward for quest three automatically triggers the next quest. Time to hunt down the nefarious Nihlathak! | Anya shows her gratitude with an item reward as well as the trigger to the next quest in Act V.
