Dota 2has received several updates this year, including two new heroes, Ringmaster and Kez. While the updates are welcomed, a couple of issues remain unaddressed. For instance, during Crownfall Act 1, players cannot progress because they cannot get the Candle token.

The Candle token is required tocomplete the Crownfall Act1 map, also known as The Market of Midgate. If you are a completionist, there is no way you will want to miss out on this opportunity to get the most rewards while the event is live. Keeping this in mind, this guide will cover everything there is to know about getting the Candle token inDota 2, along with other useful information.

Steps for Getting the Candle Token in The Market of Midgate

It is worth noting that the Candle token is important because it is necessary to complete the Lost and Found Side Quest. Initially, players could not find the Candle token because it was unavailable. However, the Candle token was made available via an Encounter, which should explain all the confusion.

If you want to get the Candle token in the Market of Midgate, here is what you need to do:

Ringmaster Hint

Now that you have the Candle token, you can unlock the Lost and Found Side Quest. Once unlocked, you can access the “Ripples in the Dark” encounter. Here, the candle will light up a certain part of the wall, hinting at the next update.

While you now know how to get the Candle token the right way, YouTuber Fay Dota Stuff showed a different way to get the token via the developer console. Unfortunately, he explains that there is no guarantee this workaround is even legal, so players are advised to do so at their own risk.

Interestingly, there are a lot of rumors and speculation about the Candle token. Many Redditors have pointed out that this encounter hinted at a Ringmaster and possibly a new skin for Juggernaut. Additionally, another popular theory reverts to the New Frontier’s Update artwork, where a Ringmaster ticket is clearly visible, giving this link between Ringmaster and the Candlemaker much more credibility.
