Oh, should have looked 1m further. Daeyana was there

it spawns when you kill a character with the contaminated spore you get ij the blackpits

afaik you need to start a new game

Yes, to activate the latest gift bag you need a new game.

Do note that "Flawed Contamination Spores" do not create Armour Pieces. They only explode, causing poison damage in a small area. What you need is a "Contamination Spore" (there is only one in the game - in the possession of Magister Carruthers). When you use the skill Trigger Spores, it causes the Contamination Spore to explode if it is in the area (or in the inventory of a character in the area), applying a debuff on the character nearest to the Spore (if any are in range). When that character dies, the Gloves will appear on their body.

While you can kill one of your own characters to do so, you can actually give the Spore to any NPC that allows trading, trigger the spore on them, then kill them. The most ironic way I found was to steal the Contamination Spore from the Scion's prisoner, then sell the Spore to the Scion. She'd trigger the Spore on herself

But how do you get the spore?

ooooh, I watched a video and now I see, the only spore is not obtainable before arx, right?

[But how do you get the spore?] -> If the Scion is alive, she will be torturing a Magister prisoner at X: 437, Y: 319. The Contamination Spore will be on the Magister. Either pickpocket it from her, or engage a fight with the Scion and either loot it from the Magister's corpse if she died in the fight, or receive it from her if the survives. Alternatively, letting the Scion perform her ritual will have her cast Trigger Spores on the prisoner, killing her in the process, and she will loot the Gloves from her corpse. /////// -> if the Scion is dead, Magister Carruthers will be with the other two Magisters in the Blackpits at X: 716, Y: 164. You can pickpocket the Spore off her, or persuade her to give it to you. ///// In both cases, do note that you do not need to get the Gloves in Reaper's Coast. If you don't get them there, you'll be able to get them in Arx.

[the only spore is not obtainable before arx, right?] -> It's the only (non-Flawed) Spore you can obtain yes, and you can only obtain it in Reaper's Coast. In Arx the Spores will have sprouted already. (You can get any pieces you didn't get before in Arx; you are not obligated to kill the Scion to loot her Armour Pieces in Fort Joy/Reaper's Coast).

thank you so much! glad I found this before going to arx, the spore was like 5 meters from the dead magister at 434, 316, and so small that I did not see it, but with the activation of teleport I found it easily

soo, now I killed daena and have everything exept the helmet, I presume thats the armor piece you get in arx?

Undead immune to poison so he cant die from it,

I guess this item not stop poisoning the target for it to die

usually magisters give you exp but in this case, they do not provide any exp. Larian probably didn’t want to give too much extra exp to the player that’s why you see the meager +25 exp when u explore new places

Game is balanced around xp. Since these are new quests - too much xp would unbalance the game
