Exploring the Abandoned Refuge in Baldur’s Gate 3 is an exciting adventure with plenty of challenges to overcome. One such challenge involves helping a group of gnomes rescue True Soul Nere, who is trapped beneath a cave-in. The key to the rescue mission lies in obtaining Smokepowder, a rare item that is currently in the possession of a gnome named Philomeen. However, finding Philomeen can prove to be a daunting task for some players.
To locate Philomeen, you need to return to the dock where you first arrived at the Abandoned Refuge. Keep your eyes peeled for a set of double iron doors situated to the northeast of the boat. Using your lockpicking skills, you can access this area and hopefully find Philomeen.
By successfully locating Philomeen and acquiring the Smokepowder, you’ll be one step closer to saving True Soul Nere and ensuring the safety of the trapped individuals. Prepare yourself for an incredible journey filled with twists and turns as you navigate through the world of Baldur’s Gate 3.
Don’t be fooled by the appearance of a dead end chamber! Unbeknownst to many, there is a concealed switch tucked away in the corner of the room. If you have a keen eye and pass a Perception check, your character will be able to spot a button discreetly placed on the right side of the secret door.
Ready to unveil the secrets that lie beyond? Venture bravely through the hidden passage and prepare yourself for a thrilling encounter with three formidable Ochre Jellies, each with a level 5 challenge. Show your mettle and emerge victorious against these monstrous foes to claim your reward.
But the adventure doesn’t stop there! Ascend the stairs and make a sharp left turn. As you navigate your way forward, you will come across a treacherous gap that can only be crossed by utilizing the powerful Jump action. Leap across the void with grace and precision, landing safely on a sturdy rocky ledge that awaits your arrival.
Once you’ve successfully picked the lock on the Intricate Door, brace yourself for an intriguing encounter in the hidden room. Inside, you’ll come face-to-face with Philomeen, who harbors a deep mistrust for Absolute followers. She may initially attempt to ignite the Smokepowder, assuming you’re one of them. However, with your persuasive skills, you can convince her to halt her plans and instead hand over a vial of this precious substance.
Having secured the Smokepowder from Philomeen, the journey through the wondrous Underdark continues. Don’t miss out on the chance to explore the Moonrise Towers. But before you do, do yourself a favor and make a stop at the majestic Sussur Tree near the Myconic Colony. Here, you’ll discover the invaluable Sussur Tree Bark. This extraordinary material plays a vital role as a quest item in the “Finish the Masterwork Weapon” mission. In this mission, you’ll craft the powerful Sussur weapon, an item of great significance in the thrilling world of Baldur’s Gate 3.
