Help: Act 2 - Moonlantern.

[Solar]

How can I obtain the Moonlantern in the Shadow-cursed lands?
Unfortunately I was hiding and let the convoy pass (with the spider guy who has the lantern). I searched the entire map and cannot find him anymore.

Any other option to obtain or repair a Moonlantern?

Thanks.

There's on you can get in moonrise towers, you can also find the harpers camp and someone there will cast a spell on you to protect you from the curse.

Thanks. I got the blessing from the cleric at the Harpers camp (upstairs). Unfortunately it is not strong enough to counter the effects when crossing the bridge.

Near the entrance will be group of people who wants to ambush someone, free the pixie, she will give you best protection. Or go to the last light inn tavern and on the highest floor will be pristess, she will help you too.

go to the "house in shadows" or whatever its called, that is where the drider with the lantern lives I believe.

just jump to moonrise tower if you did not ambush the convoy.

same problem, defiantly would have remembered a huge spider dude if I had seen him. actually had 2 broken ones in my inventory. ive seen a TON of people say to get the blessing at last light. That doesn't work, it only protects from the light darkness. also, missing the ambush is the entire problem. if you dont kill them the first time (or in my case you never see them at all) you are permanently locked out of that lantern.

I eventually pulled it off and got a lantern. but there's no way this was intended.

I respecd astarion to thief rouge so I could triple dash, and gave him longstrider and enhance leap then got to exploring as much as I could. here's the path i took that led to the moonlantern.

from the south most bridge I ran straight west and around the corner to a door I could pick open (14 DC). that warped my party inside where i was safe. inside there's a hidden button that opens a passage but there's just some vendor junk and a soul coin.

exiting the way I came in, I went south, there's some enemies there but also a street lamp that gives protection from the shadow curse. thewres some cultists here that i killed assuming the were enemies. turns out the absolute cultists are friendly despite me opposing them every step of the way. whatever, it makes things easier.

I entered the tower through the first doorway (its opposite the dock) then left up the stairs. follow the blood through the door to the east but only a few steps or your trigger an event. misty step up to the top of the stairs (i used a neck i had) up the middle stairs then through the door on the right. you'l see an ogre named Glourik. luckily shes not very bright and you can lockipck the door shes guarding since shes not actually looking at it. i managed to fail the DC15 3 times despite a +12.

Right there in the middle of the room is the moonlantern.

please don't ask how long this took me to figure out.

You can steal one from Isobel in the Last Light Inn.
