Right at the beginning of Act Two in Baldur’s Gate 3<\/em>, you will require an item that you previously thought might not be of any use. This item is a torch<\/strong>, and it’s almost a requirement in order to get through the Shadow Cursed Lands<\/strong> safely. <\/p>
If you decide to go through the Underdark\/Grymforge<\/strong> to reach Moonrise Towers at the end of Act One, you will come across the Shadow Cursed Lands immediately after taking the elevator that begins Act Two. The tutorial states that the Shadow Cursed Lands are devoid of all light and that you will take damage from the Shadow Curse unless you have a light source nearby<\/strong>. While there are various sources of light in Baldur’s Gate 3<\/em>, the easiest one to acquire and use is the torch. <\/p>
To find out where you can find a torch in BG3<\/em>, check out the guide below. <\/p>

Similar to how you might get a shovel or another tool in BG3<\/em>, a torch is actually one of the more accessible items you can come across. I was able to find several of them by visiting different vendors all across the map<\/strong>. They are usually sold for no more than a few gold and I found that most vendors had them in stock. The earliest place you can buy a torch is from the trader Arron<\/strong>, who is at Emerald Grove<\/strong>. <\/p>
