The world ofDragon’s Dogma 2is full of hazards around every corner, and things grow much more perilous after darkness falls. With dangerous creatures like theCyclopslurking around every corner, waiting for an opportunity to seize their prey, each movement in the open world during the dark is dangerous.
One such item that can help you tread your path carefully and safely is the lantern, which most players acquire by default. While the item has no defined durability, the lantern will become inoperable after its oil runs out, leaving you with no light to illuminate the dark route ahead. To keep yourself illuminated during the night and in the dark of the many caves inDragon’s Dogma 2,here is how to use and refuel your lantern.

As theLantern Oilruns out, the light will gradually dim, and as soon as the lantern runs out of fuel, it stops producing light, which may be a major issue, especially while exploring the wilderness at night. So, the ideal time to refill your lantern is when it is nearly empty and the light is about to go out. There are two methods to obtain lantern oil: eithercrafting itusing the given recipes orpurchasing itfrom a few of the vendors you’re able to find both inside settlements and traveling throughout Vermund and Battahl.
You mustcombine two rotten itemsin your inventory to craft lantern oil, the most common of which are Rotten Fish and Rotten Harspud.

Fish and Harspud can be bought from the General Store located in Harvey Village, which you will have to visit during theScaly Invaders quest, but can also be looted as you venture into the open world ofDragon’s Dogma 2. All theitems will start to rot after four in-game days have passedsince you added them to your inventory.

Early in the game, you’ll find two merchants selling Lantern Oil:Philbert’s Sundries in Vernworth and Runne’s Apothecary in Melve.
