I cant get to Moonrise Towers

[Astraeos]

The only paths I see are through the town that was defeated, however, as soon as I enter the town I get the curse of the shadow which kills me within 5 seconds.

What am I missing here? I saved Isobel from the abduction, but I didn't do the Drider ambush fight, and now they are gone.

What am I missing? Did I really completely break the game and make it impossible for me to continue by NOT doing the Drider Ambush at the very beginning when you enter the Shadowlands?

What if you came up another way and not through the Mountain Pass?

I don't understand whats happening here. I have tried torches, I have the blessing from Isobel, yet I cannot proceed past these heavy shadow areas without dying immediately.

Again, what in the hell did I miss? This is incredibly frustrating. I've been running all around the map for hours now and I just don't understand what I could possibly be missing.

If you absolutely NEED to do the Drider Ambush right when you first see them, why does the game even give you an option to remain in stealth and not do the fight? This is so stupid and frustrating.

Again, please learn how to actually read. I've said nearly a dozen times that I saved Isobel and I have her blessing. It does nothing. I instantly die from environment shadow effects where its heavy. And the Shadows are heavy in every single direction you must take to get to Moonrise Towers.

There's problably a way to get around your problem, google it if you want a solution. But you should problably get something done about your anger issues, this isn't healthy for you.

Unfortunately, Learn To Read is a typical Reddit-level response. It is on a par with Git Gud. You have convinced yourself that there is no way out so you continue to lash out like a spoiled teenager.

I've got the same problem, the lantern I've got from Kar'niss corpse went broken when I've choose the option to keep it.

I've made a video with workaround: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mx15Vk3eseQ

It would be huge spoilers to tell you what to do but you can bring characters with you that have the cure curse ability and it will remove the curse so you dont die. I would also advise using spells that produce light.

What about reading do you guys not understand? LIGHT DOES NOTHING. TORCHES DOES NOTHING. SPELLS DO NOTHING. LIGHT. DOES. NOTHING.

I have my entire ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ party equipped torches, yet I die instantly when trying to get to Moonrise Towers? You think Cure Curse is going to stop endless environmental effects that kill you within 5 seconds?

I swear to ♥♥♥♥ all of you are literally ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ drooling idiots.

I dont' even ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ care anymore anyways. My save is obviously ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ broken and I dont care. I've just unisntalled and ♥♥♥♥ this game forever

Lmao

You don't have to do Moonrise tower, you can skip it and still progress the story. It's not mandatory.

It's also not bad game design, it's a game of choices, if you choose not to attack the patrol and get the moonlantern, that's your choice, but there are consequences to that

This game breaks constantly so sometimes when the fight happens it skips your turn constantly. there is no way to fix it except for loading an older save....

OP I just had the SAME EXACT experience I'm stuck after getting isobels blessing but all the moon laterns I have are broken no pixie can't proceed without dying in 4 seconds 60 hours in lololol noooooo

Lathander's blood protects you from shadow though the radius is smaller

it only protects from the weak shadow curse. Once you get to the level curse area you start taking damage and need the moon latern

[KalDrax]

what about shadowheart's immunity, or finishing halsin and nathaniel quest

[BittyBums3217]

I have the same problem. Have two broken moon lanterns... Had the pixies blessing from releasing the pixie which somehow disappeared. Isobel got flown off in the fight after i had killed all of the enemies. I have no way of progressing without the lantern, Isobel, or the pixie's blessing.

Did you try ringing the bell again?

[BittyBums3217]

Which bell? This game is crazy how the choices you make can have such different effects on the outcome. It's awesome.
