Bringing its demographic back to the 1998 follow-up, Baldur’s Gate 3 brings the majestic temple of Bhaal to life. For any dialog-loving fan of the fiction-rich game series, this temple is a must-visit in the game. At the height of its pomp, the temple is a sight to behold, not to mention the pleasure of beholding its many secrets.
As you near your entrance to the temple, the first task is to rescue Orin’s victim. To begin, you need to make sure that you’ve been to the Kraken’s Cove, where Orin the beholdercan help with divining the entrance. Here, you’ll hear Orin’s plea for help to rescue his cousin, Pardiera, who was abducted by a group of cultists. Agree to help him, as once in the temple you can secure her release.
1. Making your way inside: Once you’ve made your way to the entrance, which is usually guarded by two cultists, it is time to enter. To do this, you need to have the following items in your possession: a Blessing of Bhaal ($500), a Cleric’s Filter ($50) and a Divine Weapon ($1000). Once you have these items, you can open the door by concentrating your thoughts on the faces of Bhaal and then using the blessing.
2. Fighting your way through: As you make your way through the temple, you will be faced with a variety of cultists and monsters. You will need to battle your way through them, using the divine weapons and spells that you possess. As you progress deeper into the temple, the creatures will become more powerful and it is important to remember to use caution at all times.
3. Rescuing Orin’s victim: Once you have made your way to the center of the temple, you will find Pardiera, who has been taken hostage by a cult leader. You will need to do battle with him to rescue her. Once you have done so, it is important to make sure that she is safe and free from harm before continuing your journey.
4. Completing your journey: Once you have rescued Orin’s victim, you can now continue your journey through the temple. As you progress, you can collect items and rewards from the many rooms and chambers that you encounter. Be sure to be mindful of the time, as this is a timed mission and you will want to achieve the highest score possible.
Once you have completed your mission in the Temple of Bhaal, you will have secured Orin’s victim and can continue to explore the rest of the vast lands that Baldur’s Gate 3 has to offer. With this, your journey can be both exciting and rewarding. Enjoy!
