How to Light and Navigate Caverns with Borin
Receiving the Spelunker Blessing
Exploring deep subterranean caverns can be hazardous without proper navigation aids. When accompanying you on underground expeditions, Borin grants you the spelunker blessing. Keep Borin in follow mode while exploring natural ravines and cave openings to maintain this helpful navigation benefit as you chart subterranean terrain.
Automatic Path Lighting
Borin helps keep your surrounding environment illuminated without requiring you to constantly place lights by hand:
1. Ensure Borin is set to follow you as you traverse dark underground paths.
2. As you move into unlit tunnels, Borin automatically places torches to illuminate the surrounding area.
3. Use this automated illumination to maintain high visibility and reveal hostile threats lurking in dark corners.
4. If you advance too quickly across uneven cave terrain, Borin teleports directly to your location, resuming its torch placement and escort duties immediately.
