Cleaning Up the Filth in BG3
Сrеdit gоеs to Gwolo!
Have you been out adventuring in Baldur’s Gate 3 recently? Have you noticed how filthy you and your companions get after a few murders?
It can be a bit distracting, but thankfully there is a way to bathe. No, you don’t just wade in some water (get scene)
Not all acts have access to a waterfal, so that wont help.
There is 2 simple answers to your quest to be clean, and shiney for all your cutscenes:
- Spell: Create or Destroy Water
- Level 1 spell slot, one action, 9 meter radius. Cause a small rainstorm to make a pool of water
- And if your characters are in this radius, you will be washed clean of all filth.
While this does cost a spell slot for a cleric or druid, it is a large radius. You’re also likely getting ready to rest soon, so why not freshen up before meeting Shart on the cliff or dancing with Wyll.
The cheaper poor mans shower is the throw action. And a bottle of water. There are many sources of bottle of water in the game. They’re low teir loot, and often sold by vendors. Before I knew this trick, I wondered why it would ever be generated and placed in a vendor inventory, but now I know what use it has.
I should also mention, that you can spread some small effects through water on the ground. Electricity based attacks will apply the shot status to characters standing in water, and there are some gear items that want you to stand in water or electrified water.
you can throw water to dilute acid and put out fires also. 🙂
Grab a Sponge from the Goblin Camp (down the cliff from the goblin kids poking the dead guy) Last Light, or Wyrm’s Rest and wipe down with a Use action.
I leave a water bottle on the ground, gather everyone around it and smash it with an attack.
