All 11 clue locations for Night of Illusions chapter one in Marvel Rivals
For the next part of chapter one, you need to click through 11 unique items placed around the scene to gather some clues. Your goal here is to find the one correct item among the clutter to bring the assistant back to calm.
All of the items you can interact with are sparkling to help you locate them among the cluttered scene. Still, they blend in a bit, and there are more spots to click on than there are clues to find, which means it can be tricky to locate them all on your own. Here’s every item you need to find for this task.
- Some Blue Candy sitting on the small table near the left edge of the scene.
- A Green Vial on the same small table.
- A Blue Vial also sitting on the small table.
- Some Red Candy sitting on the bottom shelf underneath the table.
- Some Yellow Candy sitting next to the Red Candy underneath the small table.
- A Bone Saw sitting on the ground in front of the small table.
- There are a few clues on Deadpool himself. Click on Deadpool’s head, Deadpool’s knee, Deadpool’s shoe, and the bottom of Deadpool’s dress to reveal them all.
- Some Surgical Forceps sitting on the ground to the left of the table on the right side of the room.
- A Nursing Clipboard on the ground right above the Surgical Forceps.
- A Used Syringe sitting on the small table on the right side of the room.
- A Hunter’s Journal in the locker to the right of Deadpool.
Find the one correct item among the clutter to bring the assistant back to calm in Marvel Rivals
Now that you’ve found all 11 clues, click on Deadpool. You now must select the one correct item among the clutter you collected, which the hints you found earlier on Deadpool tell you is some kind of candy. Select and submit the Blue Candy you collected to progress.
As soon as you feed Deadpool the Blue Candy, some more dialogue from Elsa Bloodstone will appear. She’ll then be able to leave the Infirmary, which means chapter one of the Night of Illusions event is now complete. You unlock a Nurse on Duty! Spray as a prize for your hard work, and chapter two is now available to tackle.
There are lots of other special events running alongside this one in Marvel Rivals. If you’re looking to unlock some additional freebies, consider tackling Path to Doomsday: Avengers Endgame and Path to Doomsday: Avengers Infinity War next.
