If you thought the game’s first chapter was full of intrigue and dangers, hold on to your companions because the second act of Baldur’s Gate 3 gets even tougher. Regardless of your path to the Shadow-Cursed Lands, you’ll see a new danger ready to kill you and your party members. This place is covered with the Shadow Curse, which is an effect that’ll chip your health away. If you want to explore this new area freely, we’ll tell you how to get protection from the Shadow Curse in Baldur’s Gate 3.
Where to Get Protection from the Shadow Curse in Baldur’s Gate 3?
As soon as you enter the new area of Act 2, you’ll notice a group of Harpers ready to fight some undead. After the fight, they’ll tell you about the Shadow Curse in Baldur’s Gate 3 and how you can get protection. To do it, here are the steps you need to follow:
- Help the Harpers fight the undead.
- Head to the Last Light Inn (it’ll be marked on your map).
- Head upstairs to speak with Isobel.
- After a few dialogue options, she’ll give you the Blessing of Selune.
The Blessing of Selune is an effect that gives you protection against this effect. While you can also avoid some of the curse’s effects by equipping a torch or casting a light spell, the blessing is better and will let you explore this new area further. However, this blessing won’t keep the monsters away, so always keep a torch with you to spot them before they surprise you.
