Divinity: Original Sin 2 - Locating Blackroot in Cloisterwood
In Divinity: Original Sin 2, Blackroot is a crucial herb, especially for the Miester's Ritual in Act Four. This ritual, guided by Miester Siva, requires a ritual bowl, a bloody obsidian lancet, and Blackroot to unlock the Hall of Echoes and obtain Night Vision. While the initial ritual ingredients are found in Siva's basement, subsequent rituals (performed after gaining each Source Point) require you to find them yourself. This guide focuses on locating the elusive Blackroot.
Finding Blackroot in Cloisterwood
Cloisterwood, a dense forest northwest of Driftwood on Reaper's Coast, is your target. Once inside, use the ALT key to highlight interactable objects. Blackroot grows at the base of certain trees within the forest. Gather several for safety, as the number of rituals required varies.
Exploring Cloisterwood: Additional Tips
Cloisterwood offers more than just Blackroot. Explore thoroughly to discover:
- Source Point Opportunities: Interact with Hannag and Jahan (the latter also relevant to Lohse's storyline) for potential Source Point gains.
- Undead Trader: Find Eithne, an undead trader, in the ruins. Choose the "Divine Order" option to receive a side quest.
- Dead Ferryman: Located at the northern pier, he offers passage to Bloodmoon Island.
- Other Secrets: Explore Wrecker's Cave and seek out the spirit of a ship captain for a potential loremaster amulet.
Caution: Avoid the powerful witch, Alice Alisceon, until you reach at least level 15.
