The Lantern of the Laughless Saint tips verified August 22, 2026.
There are no quest arrows — write down NPC names, landmark directions, and rumor phrases before you leave town.
Skills grow by doing the action; save level-up points for schools you cannot train passively (often magic).
Visit Theodoris at Magdal's Rest western wall early — spell crafting stays locked until you finish his favor chain.
Bread and food often start regeneration instead of instant heals — read potion labels after Update 6 alchemy UI.
Killing NPCs can spawn their ghosts in combat; bodies may rise again if you return later.
Co-op shares quest consequences — agree on mercy vs violence before you talk to story NPCs.
