Walkthrough[edit]

Mechanics
  • Achievement is repeatable, and the chest upon completion gives you the items that go towards the legendary armor Obsidian armor.
  • Lanterns that have already been lit are not interactable anymore until the achievement is completed.
  • After completing a map, you must re-enter the map in order to see the lanterns.
  • Lanterns can be lit while mounted (including while under stealth from Stealth 2.0 (mount)) and while moving.
  • Some lanterns are on floating islands above the fractals. The easiest way to reach them is by griffon or skyscale, starting your flight from the Point of interest (map icon).png Wizard's Tower South Gate.

Locate each Starlight Lantern (a total of 57), which are around the waypoints and points of interests. To light them, you just need to interact with them.
