In Dungeons and Dragons, a tabletop role-playing game that serves as the foundation for Baldur's Gate 3, many impressive moments are tied to fires. Intense battles await you, especially when time is limited, and the surrounding world is subject to destruction, undoubtedly eliciting excitement from players.
Baldur's Gate 3 presents you with a situation involving a fire in a building and two unfortunate individuals trapped inside. The lack of swift reaction could lead to the loss of not only the captives but also your character and their party. You will need to carefully devise your rescue plan.
In this article, we will provide you with information that will aid you in the game, perhaps even uncovering some unexpected details. Those striving to fully immerse themselves in the gaming world should pause here and independently explore all aspects.
Rescuing Advisor Floryn
Utilize the Misty Step spell to quickly approach Advisor Floryn. Engage in a conversation with him and listen to his plea for assistance. Employ your magical spells to destroy the barrel of wine. It's important to remember that the Shatterwine Barrel can only be destroyed magically. Physical attacks, whether melee or ranged, have no effect on it. It is not necessary for the barrel's destroyer to be the same character rescuing Advisor Floryn—it can be any spellcaster in your group, positioned safely outside. Simply switch to the appropriate spellcaster and use Misty Step to rescue the advisor.
Rescuing Benryn
Use the Misty Step spell to swiftly reach Benryn. Save him by applying your abilities or successfully passing an investigation check. Cast the "Create Water" spell on Benryn. Allow him to open the door on his own (do not intervene at this moment).
Rescuing Benryn is a challenging but achievable task. Note that the explosion occurs only when someone from your group attempts to open the door. Be cautious and let him open the door independently. When he starts running, using the "Create Water" spell will help reduce fire damage and ensure his survival. If you're playing with friends, ask spellcasters to lend assistance in this situation.
In conclusion
The world of Dungeons and Dragons always offers captivating and thrilling moments, and situations involving fires in Baldur's Gate 3 are no exception. Not only are you in for exciting battles and tense moments, but also opportunities for creative and magical intervention. Rescuing captives amidst the fiery peril demands not only combat savvy but also strategic thinking and the skill to effectively wield magical abilities. A prompt reaction and a well-thought-out rescue plan can be decisive factors in ensuring the survival of your characters and achieving success in the game. So, fear not the challenges, grasp your magical spells, and apply your skills to overcome fires and save those in distress.
