Some of you might know about all these by now but hopefully this video will help atleast a few of you :) I'm currently hunting for every secret in my current playthrough so let me know if you'ld like a follow-up video 04:22 - I realized that this is reachable by a ladder, so disregard this one. I totally forgot i destroyed it by mistake lol
In the Druids Grove, down in the beach area with the sad bear, there’s a flat rock (conveniently label as such), move rock to find Amulet of Silvanus, good to cast Lesser Restoration once a day. Nice for anyone who’s Astarion’s juice box, since removes Bloodless condition. The key to the unpickable door is lying on the ground towards the stream, not too far from where we find Karlach.
When done talking to Khaga in the grove for the first time go into the room nearest her, at the back is a little semi secret alcove with a chest. In the chest is a letter and a book, the letter points you down to the beach where you obtain the incriminating evidence reading the book gives a sage background (iirc) a point of inspiration. So a wee bit more experience.
lol, you don't need to pickpocket the druid. Just talk to him, he will tell you to bring Halsim back; After you do that, he will give it to you as reward.
3 more secrets: -You can save the 4 npc's with the mask in the hag's lair. You need to pass without beeing detected or with a mask( and protection against good and evil spell to resist the charm). Then, you HAVE TO kill the hag. If you let her go, even with successful persuasion/intimidation. They will attack you after the dialog. However, only the halfling will show up in act 3 no matter what you do. -you can talk to the frog north of the swamp after the hag is dead for a reward (nothing special, just loot) -1 very rare interaction can happen with the drows petrified near the spectator. If you kill Dhourn and the spectator, the others drows will not attack you. Since they don't have Dhourn to lead them and are no longer charmed, they will go peacefully. You don't have a special reward, just a dialog that probably 99.9% of players didn't hear.
With Dhourn, if you leave him alive after the fight and are playing a female drow you can bully him into giving you the memory shard without having to fight him
If you want to save Kahga and have her side with you against the Shadow Druids you can also first read the plaques inside the Druids Grove, there are several inside and outside they just grant a new dialog option when you persuade Kahga which I like
4:50 for this area there is a key to open the door down near where you find Karlach, and your character will even make a comment “I wonder what this is for” when you pick it up. Also the only one of those traps you actually need to disable is the pressure plate in the back room, as without that pressure plate going off, none of the gas vents from the front area will go off. Also to open the back room you don’t have to have people sit on the chairs, you just have to put a vase on both chairs.
As far as the flask goes. I would highly recommend going to the hideout, get the quest, let rugan and Ollie die, take the chest back unlocked. Once you have given her the chest you get a rare crossbow named Harold that inflicts bane for two turns. Save, Then pickpocket the chest off of her
If you're on honor mode and really want to get that legendary sword, a rangers bear pet has the honeyed paws ability at level 5 that has a MUCH higher chance of disarming kith'rak voss than shart's command spell. You have to let the bear drink an invis potion then sneak for the disarm. If you're not running a ranger you can use q hireling from withers.
If you use Shadowheart to bless your Party on the Nautiloid before you start the encounter, you can refresh using the machine and start the encounter with a much easier chance to make Zhalk drop his weapon. Also, Make sure to use Dash before going through the door. You'll start the encounter with a TON of extra movement and still have your action to do things.
4:53 toll house basement has a key near the huge ladder going up to the toll house where the fake paladins of tyr are located. Also, hidden room can be opened by placing an item on the pressure plate located on the seat. There are vases near by just move them on the seats.
6:25 also with Khaga if you are playing as a Druid and convince her to side against the ShadowDruids, you will be given a staff by her and the title of “Faithwarden”. And while it doesn’t really do anything (outside of being able to tell Jaheira when she has you in her vines that she should let you go because you are Faithwarden), I still think it’s fun for role play purposes. I think if there was more Druids in act 3 then being Faithwarden would have been more meaningful, but the only Druid I have seen in act 3 is the Dragonborn praying to Chauntea to heal the tree.
For Kagha: In the Druid Grove you can find Kaghas Chest, which gives you the quest to go to the tree in the swamp. Of course you have to be in stealth and lockpick it.
you can also weight down the chairs in the cellar below the Paladins with some of the nearby boxes too if you are in there with one character, also druids can use cat form to get into the cellar from behind the building if anyone was curious.
Harpers stash, skeleton with guidance necklace Blacksmith house, no need for box stacking - 100% a ladder up to the infernal iron right next to the trapped chest. Opening Zhent chest locks you out of being able to get the Titanstring bow
DAMMMNNN the Harper stash near Astarion. Never found that! There's so much to find in this game. On my 4th playthrough, found a ton of chests in Act 1 that I never found previously
You don’t have to kill panderna, you can sneak behind her while she’s on the floor, get behind her on the right side of the chest and sneak and loot the chest
Currently playing this and am about to go to Moonrise which I heard is the last part of act 1 so thank you for this. I keep reading articles too and finding out things I missed too and having to backtrack to places which I actually don’t mind (I usually would in any other game). It’s amazing just how huge this game is already.
Tollhouse - You can get the key at the bottom of the ladder close to where Karlach was. Also you can stack things on the chair to open the locked door if you are playing solo.
If you trigger the druids attacking the teiflings and then talk to Minthara, the grove will be taken without a fight. If you kill Zevlor before talking to Karga she can directly ask you to eliminate the rest of the teiflings, which if complete will then cause the ritual of thorns to complete when you exit the grove.
At the druids emerald grove, there is animal statues forming a circle around the Sacred Idol, but the largest circle around it with doors etc is simply vertical big stones where you can jump on the top of it to find a chest on one of them. Also, you can block the way of the 2 infernal soldiers in the big nautiloid fight by picking up the 3 containers ''cartilaginous chest'', this is how you can get the Fire Sword without dropping the weapon, just by killing him. In fact, I did get the fire sword this way the first time, because I didn't know about ''Command'' and drop...
Thank you for the tip to get the flaming sword! I made Wyll a paladin and it looks so good on him! It never even occured to me that there could be a way to get it because its' hit points were so high. Mind of a fighter.
OMG I thought the wolf tablet opened the door into the room with the statues that leads to the cells and the back entrance that the goblins invade! I had no idea you could press them all to create that staircase and I have 400 hours in the game.
You don't have to kill the tiefling that is paralyzed in the grove. You can use Lesser Restoration to remove the paralysis effect on her body, sneak, and then take the key. :)
That area near where you meet Astarion on the beach: never got that right probably because I got thrown by being denied the ability to throw it even with 21 Strength. Have to try moving it like a crate I guess.
For Voss, heat metal actually has a better chance of getting him to drop the sword. Or you can use a level 5 beast master bear (invisible) and divination wizard for up to like... 80% chance with advantage i think. I know it's crazy high though
In act 3 in Sarevock prison there is a prisoner, a dead guard. On him there is a love letter which is sent to Plume the dragon child that Durge murders in Act 1. I have just done the season of the judgment of Sarevock, my first run I was Tav so I don't didn't have that. I just came across it and I didn't feel very good the rest of the day when I discovered it.
You can also just wait until after the Tiefling party because then no one is around and you can loot everything in that room (mostly food and potions).
the tiefling in front of the chest that the rat leads you to, as long as you aren't in her line of sight and go into stealth you can loot it without her knowing.
No need to knock out or kill Pandirna. Sneaking, darkness arrows, putting her to sleep, and just shoving her so that she falls over and can't get back up all work
Don't talk to the squirrel as durge tho, not unless you're ok having it's end on your conscience 😢 Also 3:43 you can just get on the right side of the chest, sneak, and loot the chest and then the cabinet, no need to go psycho on the poor girl 4:26 there's a ladder, don't waste time stacking boxes
Yes, that’s mostly why people do this in the first place. As long as Lakrissa is alive and you rescue her from Moonrise (as her and Alfira are together so the reward from Alfira is for rescuing Lakrissa).
@@elenalizabeth thank you so much. I'm in act one in my Durge run (Bard, a Alfira lookalike) and definitely didn't wanna pass on that Robe since it is the best in game for Bard/Warlock/Sorcerer.
@@LucMarGui if you aren’t playing for role-play purposes and just playing for fun, you can now just summon that robe (and all other armour/weapons/jewellery) with the cheat ring mod. It’s under the “cheat summons” list and will summon a chest into your inventory, but once it’s summoned you need to go into turn-based mode as the chest only lasts for 5 turns (so send what you want from the chest to camp or other companions). There’s seperate chests for armour, weapons, jewellery, arrows, potions, alchemical supplies, etc. so you have to go through each one at a time to get what you want from them.
That chest in the basement that leads to the infernal iron has a ladder to it. The chest on the ground is trapped though so that might have destroyed the ladder.
It be nice for more like these. Or How to romance characters, Lae'zel or Yummy Mummy Karlach, etc, - because no matter how much I try, Astarion keeps bedding me! Also, I didnt know Minthara was a character you could recruit!
Minthara is actually a funny story. You previously could only recruit her through either siding with the goblins rather than the druids or through a convoluted path involving polymorph, dominate beast, and a lot of throwing of a sheep. The devs decided that, if we were so dedicated to saving the Grove AND Minthara, they would just let us do it. All you have to do is KO her and then clear out the rest of the goblin camp. She will then be in moonrise to answer for her failure where you can save her.
nice, yes, nice to look this secrets, but when are you going to give me my "list of official moods" i want to start a new gameplay playing Gale but with all the nice jusy mods :P
There is a chest in the druid grove library that has a letter that will lead you to the ruined grove in the swamp as well. There is a key for the unpickable door. The toll collector threw it and it is close by to where you find Karlach. In the room behind said door, the vents are not traps. They activate if you step on the pressure plate in the hidden room revealed by the seat pressure plates.
7:37 I think they’ve changed this as he only ever drops his bow for me. Most people I’ve seen comment on other channels also say he only ever drops his bow.

also good to fix the tiefling in the storage room whos legs arent working
Thank you so much! I could not remember where it was. It is an awesome item.

5:10 - You can just put a vase in each seat. No need for a party member to occupy the throne/switch contraption.
Nice! Good catch
where did you get the outfit?
+1
Easily one of my most favourite things to do in bg3 is talking to the dead.
You don’t have to kill panderna, you can sneak behind her while she’s on the floor, get behind her on the right side of the chest and sneak and loot the chest
you don't need to kill or knock out the person next to the cabinet. you can just sneak/hide behind them and they won't notice a thing.

Tip 8: You can say to Pandirna that you are now in carge of watching the warehouse OR cure her with lesser restoration. No killing needed
Be a bard, save the ogre couple 😆
Honestly, that concrete block is the only way I've ever entered the crypt after 4 playthroughs 😭😂
03:37 - you don't have to kill her, just hide and stand next to her

I discovered all that on my very first character as I tend to snoop every corner :D
3:40 - Shadowheart has a spell that can cure the paralysed girl.
Paladins also have command btw, incase anyone wants to take that route, i think bards and warlocks do also but im not certain
