Lanterns in the Mists

A group of strangers appear from the mists bearing curious magical lanterns....

The Mists of Ravenloft have begun to appear with greater frequency across the planes, and there are reports of mysterious humanoid or snake-like shapes whispering in these mists. Too many are disappearing across Faerun and Eberron, falling prey to these “Mist Stalkers”. There are even rumors of a great serpent seen in the mists. Lantern-bearing strangers calling themselves the Order of the Guardians claim to have a solution to this threat. Are you ready to heed their call?

Get Started:

To start the Lanterns in the Mists event, first enter the mists (labeled "Lanterns in the Mists") located in the Eberron Hall of Heroes. The mists are next to the fountain in the far Western wing. There is also an additional mists entrance outside the exit of the tutorial dungeon in Korthos village.

Go into the mists and play the quest, "The Curse of the Five Fangs." Once you're done, exit the quest, then speak to the NPCs that have appeared next to the mists you used to enter to obtain a lantern. Note that these NPCs will not appear until after you've completed the quest! If you entered the quest through the mists on Korthos Island, you can either use the waypoint that appears inside the quest to exit to the Eberron Hall of Heroes or simply presss Recall to exit out back to Korthos.

There are two NPCs: Zuria Velamont and Barston Gelminedes. Valamont and Gelminedes offer magical Lanterns which slot into your Cosmetic Shield slot and allow you to see Mist Stalkers in any content outside of raids. You must have a Lantern equipped in order to see these enemies! Note that you can take multiple lanterns, but only the one that you currently have equipped will get charged as you play. As you defeat Mist Stalkers your chosen Lantern's Durability will increase. Once full, the Lantern can be turned into a Guardian for various cosmetic rewards which are then granted to your game account!

The Lanterns

There are five regular Lanterns and five Skull Lanterns available to acquire and fill. Regular Lanterns are Bound to Character and can be placed into your Character Bank, but not into your Shared Bank. These Lanterns also cannot be traded, auctioned, or mailed.

The five regular Lanterns are:

• Lantern of the Pledge - Easy to Fill. Reward - Cosmetic Half Cloak of the Order of the Guardian

• Lantern of the Order - Long to Fill. Only Advances on Reaper Difficulty. Reward - Cosmetic Full Cloak of the Order of the Guardian

• Lantern of the Shield - Medium length to fill. Reward - Cosmetic Shield of the Order

• Lantern of the Seeker - Very Long to Fill. Reward - Mist Stalker Sabertooth Mount

• Lantern of the Keepers - Medium length to fill. Reward - Magical Lantern Cosmetic Pet

The five Skull Lanterns operate the same as the five regular Lanterns above, but Skull Lanterns are destroyed upon character
