Escape the Nautiloid Walkthrough (Prologue) | Baldur's Gate 3 (BG3)｜Game8 (2024)

FAQs

How do you escape the Nautiloid? ›

You will be able to escape the Nautiloid ship by going though the helm and connecting to the transponder. You can reach it by passing through different rooms, starting from Myrnath's room, then going out on the open part of the ship and meet Lae'zel, heading to Shadowheart's Pod, and then going into the helm.

According to them, the ship crash-lands between Baldur's Gate and Elturgard, west of Elturel and Fort Morninglord. If you're scratching your head, don't worry – you haven't missed some huge chunk of the game.

Act Three begins at the camp location Wyrm's Lookout, then with a trip to the Astral Plane. After resting, Baldur's Gate proper is reached, consisting of Rivington and Wyrm's Crossing, then the Lower City, Lower City Sewers and Undercity Ruins.

Enter the cellar door in the house south of the Blighted Village waypoint. Move the wooden crates to the left of the bookcase to reveal a lever. Pull the lever and pass through the bookcase opening. (Optional) Defeat the Agile Guardians in the Mouldering Caskets and use the Scroll of Summon Quasit.

1. In the middle of the room is a mind flayer "nursery" i.e. a pool filled with larvae. Upon interaction, you can Investigate to determine that it is about to break apart. If you try to touch the "nursery", it explodes and causes a small amount of damage to your character.

Don't cripple the Brain creature. otherwise, you weaken it and if you fail the check, you have to fight it.

If you pass an Investigation check, you can attempt to free it via a following Medicine check with advantage. If you succeed in removing it via any method, Us becomes a temporary ally and companion throughout the tutorial section on the Mind Flayer Nautiloid ship. Otherwise it remains stuck in Myrnath's skull.

Us can later be found in the Morgue within the Mind Flayer Colony. It has been labelled an aberrant and as a result is caged. If freeing it, Summon Us will allow to get Us as an ally once per short rest. If Us died aboard the Nautiloid in Act One, it will not appear in the cage during Act Two.

Having completed the game myself Act 2 is by far the shortest. Act 1 is the longest followed by Act 3. But then that could change depending on what you choose to do in each. However, I did not find much to do in Act 2 even after attempting to find things to do.

Should I let Laezel kneel to Vlaakith? ›

Generally speaking, you shouldn't force Lae'zel to obey Vlaakith. If she goes against Vlaakith, Lae'zel leaves for the Astral Plane at the end of the game and leads a rebellion to save her people. If she sides with Vlaakith, Withers implies that she meets a much darker fate during the epilogue party.

Baldur's Gate 3: Act 3 Point of No Return

This will be the point after which everything that happened before will be completely blocked, so players should take some time to level up before heading to Baldur's Gate. And the last point of no return in the game is Elder Brain.

Letting Astarion bite you is an easy way to get approval with him. The simple answer is yes, as the only downside is gaining the Bloodless debuff, while Astarion gains the Happy buff and his approval rating of you increases.

On the north wall of the cellar, you'll find a hidden lever behind some crates that you can pull. This opens the Secret Cellar Door behind the bookcase nearby, allowing you to enter a hidden area.

Reading the Necromancy of Thay

One success (of three): You gain the "Baleful Knowledge" curse (Disadvantage on Wisdom checks until Remove Curse is cast on you), and learn how to cast the Speak With Dead spell without casting a spell slot.

Octopi prefer to be anchored to a fixed object, and may swim away once dislodged. Turn somersaults in the water. If you have detached the octopus from its mooring but are still being held, turn your body in circles in the water to irritate it into releasing you. Swim toward the surface.

Thus, the safest way to avoid the Anglerfish is to line up the chosen destination from a distance, fire the engines briefly to gain momentum, and then cut the engines so that the ship makes no noise as it coasts through the fog of the Bramble.

While on the chain, players must slide down until they touch the water, preferably as far to the left as possible. This will lure the creature to the left side of the map, which will create the distance players will need to escape this room.
