How to get to the Underdark in Baldur's Gate 3
Of Wildwoods There are four ways to get to the Underdark at Baldur's Gate 3:
- The path through the Defiled Temple requires ing through goblin camp and decide Halsin.
- В spider lair you can only descend into the Underdark if you have the Smooth Fall spell.

Defiled Temple in Goblin Camp
In the Shattered Sanctuary in the west of the Goblin Camp Dungeon, you can enter the Defiled Temple, guarded by the bodyguard of Priestess Gut. If you it and go deeper into the room, you will find yourself in a room with a riddle with moon disks (X: 436; And: 55), the age of which opens a hidden age in the Underdark.
In a separate article, we analyzed all the ways to how to solve the moon puzzle.
How to get to the Desecrated Temple
To get to the Fel Temple, from the Goblin Camp rune circle, go to their underground abode, the Broken Sanctuary. You can get into it in two ways: normal and secretive. Way through main entrance The Shattered Shrine can be problematic if the creatures are hostile during the "Travel Through the Underdark" step of the "Go to the Moon Towers" main quest.
Instead, you can find in the Goblin Camp cracked wall on the "second floor" above the door to the Broken Sanctuary. Break it down, make it through collapsed age and in group stealth mode, along the upper beams, you will reach the door leading to the Desecrated Temple (X: 252; Y: -7). On the way you will find three chests.
How to get through the Defiled Temple and get to the entrance with the moon plates
Possible paths to the puzzle differ depending on the races and the stage of the Save the Refugees quest in DB 3.
- Option with the help of the Faithful Gut easier and more profitable, but depends on the stage of the task and the presence of immunity of the main character's race to magical sleep (present in elven species).
- Straight way to the temple involves either hacking and difficult checks, or stealth, or a large waste of gold, or combat.
- by road requires accuracy, available only to small races and heroes who can turn into them or into a cloud.
With the help of the Faithful Gut
Talk to Faithful Colon (X: 300; Y: -19) and trust her to find a cure for the parasite in the "Ask the Goblin Priestess for Help" quest. After the dialogue, follow her to her room (X: 272; Y: -7), divide the squad and the main character go into the room alone.
Ask Faithful Gut to remove the parasite and accept sleeping potion. If it is not able to affect the character (for example, if his race is drow), then instead of the desired course of events, a battle will begin - in this case, only other ways to get to the temple.
With the right scenario, the priestess will transfer the bound hero to the Fel Temple and begin his interrogation. Don't try to get out and don't provoke a fight. Select "Save your strength" and wait until the mysterious Korilla Furnace comes to the rescue.
The savior will kill both the priestess and the bodyguard Polma guarding the age to the temple of Selune, for which you can take Guts from the corpse:
- Priestess Key.
- Padlock key.
- A smelly note.
- Sleep Potion.
- Healing potion.
- Potion of Greater Healing.
- Battle board Absolute (shield, armor class 2).
- Scroll of Flaming Hands.
- Pegasus feather.
- Agate.
- A specimen of an illithid parasite.
- Primitive mace (1d6-1 damage).
- Talisman Absolute (spell for healing and increasing HP).
Direct path with the huge Polma
Reach the door to the Defiled Temple and hack it with difficulty level 10. Use it and put the character with the highest charisma in front to try to solve the problem in the dialogue.
Inside the next turn will be Ogre Polmapreventing free age. There are several options for obtaining permission from her to access the area:
- Pay the high priestess' bodyguard Xnumx gold, which is too large a sum.
- fight with the huge Polma.
- Try to sneak covertly, turning off the light sources, but it will be problematic to conduct the whole team in this way.
- Try to solve everything conversation with difficulty level 22 checks for deception, intimidation or persuasion, after which it will be possible to freely move around the Fel Temple (the best option).
Workaround
Enter the room at the entrance to the Shattered Sanctuary containing the powder kegs. In addition to trying to get through the security, you can jump into the room from the side through a hole in the wall. The room will contain a heavy chest with difficulty class 18 containing 257 gold.
Carefully move the barrels to the side so as not to touch the black powder on the floor, otherwise they will all explode and the characters will die. As you clear the age and climb into the Stony Cavity (possible only with low races, disguise or a spell), you will find yourself next to the temple of Selune.
Spider Lair in the Extinct Village
Right at the teleport "Dead Village" you will notice well (X: 21; Y: 398). Interact with it and jump down through it to find yourself in an underground location. The Whispering Abyss is full of spiders, but at the end you will find a crater leading to the Underdark.
Near the hole will be the boss Phase Spider Matriarch. You can get to the abyss using stealth, if you follow the right side of the dungeon from the location of the well bucket and do not catch the eyes of enemies. Do not step on the web, otherwise you will provoke enemies.
Cast a spell or scroll "Smooth Fall" and use chasm jump (X: 552; Y: -352) to land smoothly at the very depth and move to a new location. Otherwise, the entire squad will die and you will have to load the last save.
Basement at Waukeen's Refuge
in the burning Waukeen's Shelter on the side of the main building you will find an extension (X: -114; And: 614), the entrance to which is hidden behind several boxes. As you remove them and enter the room, a dialogue with Salazon.
Calm him down and get the engraved key, or kill him and take him from the corpse, then use the hatch (X: -128; And: 617) and go down to Underground Zhentarim Shelter. Walking around the room, notice the closet (X: 381; Y: -258), which must be moved with a key or can be opened with thieves' tools.
After ing through the secret steps, you will find yourself in the shelter itself, where a conversation with Zaris will begin. After receiving permission to enter, move inside. As you approach the bridge full of non- explosives, go down the next stairs (X: 284; Y: -225) down to the stone wall next to which stands pair of wolves.
by fake wall (X: 268; Y: -188), open the elevator winch and use it to descend into the Underdark.
Portal in the Tea House
From the Rotten Mire teleportation point, get to the Crooked Tea House. If you haven't spoken to Aunt Ethel, then first start a dialogue with her, wait until she disappears and only then go through hearth (X: -68; Y: 264).
Go down the wooden steps and find yourself in the basement under the house, find curved door (X: -308; Y: 585) and go through it using the mouse click behind the wall. Next, you have to fight the masks of horror. Take from the corpse of one of them whispering mask or go back and pick it up from the table in the past space.
Jump over the wall of the waterfall, go down the stairs through the poisonous cloud and see one more door (X: -357; Y: 576). To get through it, you will have to put on a whispering mask on one of the characters. We recommend that you remove the equipment from him, quickly send him along with the group to the room outside the door and try to have time to remove it so that the hero does not have time to become hostile. You can use the walk mode.
Interact with mushroom circleto travel to the Underdark.

How to get through the Underdark to get to the Moon Towers
To get through Lunar Towers from the Underdark, follow to bank with crystals in the southwest of the region. In front of him you will encounter several dwarves, among whom Geh Ember, a slave hunter, will start a dialogue. Until you kill him or complete the assignment, he will not miss the shore.
When you go down and find doorgar boat (X: -6; Y: -209), on it you can sail through the waters of Ebenozero to Grimforge. In the process of swimming, you will encounter another group of dwarves with whom you can find a peaceful solution or get into a fight again.
When you arrive in Grimforge, a dialogue will automatically begin with the meeting doorgars. It is not necessary to give one of them 100 gold to access their stronghold - in fact, this is just her joke.
Reach Rune Circle Underdark - Grimforge (X: -647; Y: 382), from it go down the stairs to the east past the cages with the dead drow and go up to wrought iron gate, which have two dark dwarves and a gnome slave.

In the area, meet Weary Traveler Elminster Aumar (X: 47; Y: -1167) associated with the wizard Gale. If you decide to talk to him and decide to escort him to the satellite, then temporarily move to the camp, from where, after the dialogues, you can return to the previous zone. Nearby on the table you can pick up a broken moon lantern (X: 37; And: 1165).

I went through the hag's lair. Doesn't let you jump to the door, writes too high. Please help me solve the problem
Hello. Jump distance depends on characteristics force, so you can temporarily upgrade her in the camp thanks to the Withered One, asking him to change the class. Further descent this way will also involve jumping (over mushrooms in the Underdark).
The easiest way is to first try to send the character with the highest strength to jump over the abyss - the rest can jump after him. Sometimes the movement is a little glitchy and it's hard to find a specific point to jump to.
An alternative would be spells or their scrolls like “Mist Step” and “Flight”. Also, characters of the Githyanki race are able to increase the jump distance of one of the abilities of the transmutation school, like it’s called “Jump” (and several other classes).
There is a much simpler option. I am talking about the situation when the main character jumped, but the team cannot.
I simply excluded the "incompetents" from the group and sent them to the camp. Then I moved away from the problematic place and also returned to the camp. In the camp, I accepted them back into the group.:))
But I had a different situation: 2 of the group were stuck on an island, and there were chasms around, and the “land” was located higher and they could not jump.
How to get to the portal in the southwest of the temple? And where does it lead? I'm just looking for a way to get out of the goblin camp without a fight, and I'm just wondering how to get to the portal
Hello. You mean the 4th portal to the Underdark, right? It leads to the moors with Aunt Ethel to the Tea House. From the Underdark you need to climb up the mushrooms next to the corpse of a dead drow and thus get to a clearing with via clickable link.
The numbering of teleports on the maps of the Underdark and Wildwood (Wasteland) is linked by numbers. If you suddenly had in mind how to get out of the Desecrated Temple, you will find it in separate article. If something remains unclear, then write.
Oh, I knew it, but the problem is that I can’t climb the mushrooms, only the first ones, and those that are higher, well..too high and short
You can temporarily increase the strength parameter of the characters in the camp by changing the class of the Withered One and changing the characteristics at the very beginning of editing, drinking a potion or using abilities to increase jumping or teleportation. Unfortunately, the second way is only on the other side :)
I go into the lands defiled by the shadow through Greenforge, but immediately there is necro damage, how to get through that? no one writes but everyone es? Can you write like a human?
Hello. You can read about the location with the Moon Towers and methods for removing the curse in dedicated to this article.
stuck in the underground. the lantern is broken, and the lift teleports to the camp, from which you can no longer teleport and return nowhere (everything is blocked). it turns out only to roll back to the save and try to understand what else needs to be done. by the way, all the NPCs in this region disappeared after clearing the blockage (although I didn’t clear it, but just tp to the first zone and back)
Hello. From the lift, you can move to the camp for the first time, then you need to return with the “leave the camp” button, which is under the two rest icons, in order to be in the intermediate zone (it is on the very last screenshots in the article) and already go out of it to the Towers area. If movement is blocked, it may be that someone was not spoken to in the camp. As for the blockage, the quest with Nere is limited in “time” - that is, if you start it and move somewhere a couple of times, the task will automatically end. NPCs disappear just when Nere comes out.
And if not one of the described options has already been ed for a long time and there is no choice. And without a lantern you can’t go any further, the rest is all gone. What to do then?
Interestingly, I went into the dungeon through a wormhole in the form of a cloud after solving the riddle with the moons and immediately got to the article with the moonstone, destroying which the minotaur began to break in the second
