Divinity: Original Sin 2 Blackroot Location Guide
In Divinity: Original Sin 2, Blackroot is a crucial herb, primarily needed for Miester Siva's Ritual in Act IV. This ritual, involving a ritual bowl, bloody obsidian lancet, and Blackroot, grants access to the Hall of Echoes and the Night Vision skill. While initial ingredients are found in Siva's basement, subsequent rituals require independent sourcing. This guide focuses on locating Blackroot.
Venture into Cloisterwood
Cloisterwood, a dense forest northwest of Driftwood on Reaper's Coast, is the key location. Once inside, use the ALT key to highlight interactable objects. Blackroot grows at the base of certain trees. Gather several for future rituals. (The exact number of rituals required is omitted to avoid spoilers).
Cloisterwood Exploration Tips
Cloisterwood offers more than just Blackroot. Explore to discover:
- Source Point NPCs: Hannag and Jahan offer potential Source points (Jahan also advances Lohse's storyline).
- Undead Trader: Eithne, located in ruins, provides a side quest via the "Divine Order" option.
- Dead Ferryman: Located at the northern pier, he offers passage to Bloodmoon Island.
- Other Secrets: Wrecker's Cave and a potential loremaster amulet from a ship captain's spirit await discovery.
Consider thorough exploration of Cloisterwood before confronting the powerful witch, Alice Alisceon (level 15+ recommended).
