Find Blackroot's Hidden Location in Divinity Original Sin 2

This Divinity: Original Sin 2 guide focuses on locating Blackroot, a crucial herb for the Miester's Ritual in Act IV. This ritual, led by Miester Siva, grants the Night Vision skill. While initial ingredients are found in Siva's basement, subsequent rituals require players to gather them independently. Finding Blackroot can be challenging, but this guide provides assistance.

Blackroot is essential for crafting the Ritual Bowl, alongside a ritual bowl and bloody obsidian lancet. While obtaining the bowl and lancet is usually straightforward (you may already possess them), locating Blackroot necessitates a specific area.

Venture Into Cloisterwood

Cloisterwood, a dense forest northwest of Driftwood on Reaper's Coast, is the location of Blackroot. Once inside, use the ALT key to highlight interactive objects. Several Blackroots are found at the base of trees. Gather several for future rituals. The exact number of rituals required is omitted to avoid spoilers. Remember, each Source point gained allows another ritual.

Cloisterwood Exploration Tips

Cloisterwood offers more than just Blackroot. It contains:

• Two NPCs (Hannag and Jahan): Each can potentially help you gain a Source point. Jahan is also relevant to Lohse's storyline.
• Eithne (Undead Trader): Located in ruins, she offers a side quest via the "Divine Order" option.
• Dead Ferryman: Found at a northern pier, he provides passage to Bloodmoon Island.
• Other Secrets: Explore Wrecker's Cave and potentially obtain a unique loremaster amulet.

Caution: Avoid the powerful witch, Alice Alisceon, until reaching at least level 15. Thorough exploration of Cloisterwood is recommended on your first visit.
