The Lantern is an Equipment item in Sea of Thieves that acts as a portable light source to illuminate the immediate area.

Usage

The Lantern can switch on and off with Primary Use. It can also be held higher with Secondary Use to slightly intensify the lighting output.

Static lanterns and beacons can switch on and off without equipping a lantern, presenting the Lantern against static lanterns will provide the option to either light them with the current flame, or take the flame from the target.

The lantern light can be changed through the Festival of the Damned.

Variants

All new players are equipped with a basic Sailor Lantern by default. Other versions are available for purchase from the Equipment Shop or Companies.
