Moonlantern 🌕
(Inspired by dscythegeo's Wearable Lanterns. I've re-implemented the functionality myself.)
-
[]No longer clanks loudly while walking around.
[
]No longer equippable in the Torch slot or as a Weapon.- The unique Pixie Lantern from Drider Kar'nis will still be a torch to avoid breaking his movement and AI.[]Instead, equippable in the Musical Instrument slot so they can be used alongside weapons.
- Also applies to Gale's Shadow Lantern.
Shadow Lantern 🌑
-
[]No longer clanks, glows or provides Moonshield Aura.
- Larian added this in Patch 8, ruining the Shadow Lantern for sneaky or darkness-themed characters.[]Instead, it grants Pixie Blessing to the wearer, stealing the power of the dead pixie in the lantern.
[]You can channel the Lantern Wraith's Extinguishing Malice to snuff out nearby lights.
Conjure Shadow Lantern Wraith ♟️

[]No longer summons a useless Shadow that can't jump or climb ladders.

[]Can fly! This allows it to follow the party anywhere, making it seamlessly usable as a summon.

]Can use Necrotic Claws, Life Drain, Strength Drain, Extinguishing Malice, and Dark Currents.[]Will seamlessly Hide alongside the party. If it was Lightly or Heavily Obscured when hiding, it will Shadowblend.
[]When Lightly or Heavily Obscured, gains Shadow Veil.
- Since Shadows are already resistant to non-magical Slashing, Piercing, and Bludgeoning, Wraithwyn becomes resistant to all Slashing, Piercing, and Bludgeoning damage when obscured. BONUS: The overhead "Shadow Veil" text lets you know when it's obscured for Shadowblend.
