The campsite at night

The Campsite is a Location within Chapter One, and becomes accessible after the player completes the Prologue. This is a special location that the player discovers when they first initiates a long rest, and can subsequently be traveled to similarly or through fast travel.

Purpose and Usage

In the Early Access, the night-time version of the campsite serves as the primary location for Long Resting, and reforming the party composition. It is also a key location to progress the main and companion stories through camp conversations.

The day-time version of the camp is accessed whenever the player chooses to arrive at it through fast travel. The player may also appear here instead of in the World Map after resting if certain camp cutscenes that don't trigger automatically are available.

Waypoints

This location does not contain any waypoints, but can be fast travelled to at any point. Arriving in the campsite this way triggers the day-time version of the location.

Instances

The appearance of the Campsite (tents, furniture, characters, etc.) may change as the story progresses, provided the player gathers companions and allies. The campsite has several instance variants that are used when travelling to camp from certain game locations. Like the open world it is possible to loot containers and take items to be sold. These can be looted from each instance.

Wilderness Campsite: This is the primary campsite players visit when in the Wilderness or many of its Zones and locations.

Overgrown Chapel Campsite: This is the primary campsite players visit when in the interior regions of the Overgrown Ruins

Blighted Village (Basement) Campsite: This campsite is visited when in the basement / cellar of any home in the Blighted Village.

Underdark Campsite: This campsite is visited when in the primary Underdark region.
Underdark (Grymforge) Campsite: This campsite is visited when in Grymforge

Underground Campsite: This campsite is visited when in underground over-land regions such as the Zhentarim Basement or the Underground Passage.

(Please contribute to the wiki if you have information on additional campsites.)

Item Persistence

You can place items, containers, chests in a camp. If you return to the same camp instance those items will persist. However, if you travel to a different camp instance type, those items will not be moved to the new instance.

At a certain point in the story you can not return to camp instances from previous Acts. So storing items in these camps can be dangerous (pending further testing).
