BG3 Free the Artist Guide
In order to free Oskar, head to the Zhentarim Hideout and engage with Brem. Exchange a specific amount of gold with him to secure Oskar’s freedom. Prior to this, completing the “Find the Missing Shipment” quest is advisable as it can significantly lower the price for this transaction. Additionally, rolling ability checks can further reduce the cost, and if you find yourself in need of more coins, consider selling any unwanted goods to Brem.
After completing the transaction, you’ll have the opportunity to share the good news with Oskar. He may then ask for some additional gold to fund his travels, but it’s important to note that it is entirely optional to give him more money. Many players have reported that Oskar reaches his destination safely without any extra coins, so the choice is yours to make.
In Act 3, Fevras assures you that he will reimburse you for all the gold you spent once you reach Baldur’s Gate.
Discovering the Location of Oskar Fevras in Baldur’s Gate
Oskar Fevras can be found at Lady Jannath’s Estate, located to the left of the Baldur’s Gate fast travel point. Approach the estate and you will see Tarhum Mnemonis standing at the front door, who can provide you with information about the house.
If you’re a player eager to meet Oskar in the game, you’ll find him on the upper floor of the home located at the coordinates ‘X: -248, Y: -48.’ But there’s a catch – you have to use non-lethal attacks to subdue him. Luckily, activating these strikes is a straightforward process. Simply access the Passives section in your character’s slot, and you’re good to go!
Exploring the Atelier in Baldur’s Gate 3
In Baldur’s Gate 3, there is an intriguing quest that takes you to the Atelier. To begin your investigation, start by obtaining a key from Oskar’s body. Proceed to the upper floor, following the quest waypoint. It is advisable to split your party at this point, as objects in the area may consistently hit your team. Utilizing a character with the Misty Step ability, which allows traversing multiple levels, can help you avoid enemy attacks. Simply keep using this ability repeatedly until you reach the upper level.
Once you have ascended, locate Oskar’s painting and place it on the nearby easel. If you encounter difficulty in picking it up, you can right-click on the object to reveal the ‘Steal’ option.
Get ready for an exciting adventure in Baldur’s Gate 3! To access the hidden room on the right, you’ll need to interact with the easel and combine some items. Watch as the magic unfolds and reveals a whole new area to explore.
Before you embark on your journey, make sure to open the chest using Oskar’s key. Inside, you’ll find a valuable letter that contains a password crucial for your progress. Don’t forget to read the other notes on the desk as well. They might give you valuable hints and information about the quest you’re about to undertake.
Unveiling the Secrets of Carrion Mansion in Baldur’s Gate 3
Equipped with the information from the letter found within the Atelier, it’s time to make your way to the mysterious Carrion Mansion. Follow the coordinates ‘X: -15, Y: -150’ to locate the entrance. Here’s a pro tip: choose the dialogue option ‘Secreta Mortuorum’ to unlock the door at the Jaheira waypoint. Now you’re ready to explore the wonders and mysteries that lie within Carrion Mansion.
In order to obtain the coveted Torch of Revocation, one must seek an audience with the enigmatic Mystic Carrion. There are several paths one can take to acquire this powerful artifact – defeating the Mystic Carrion in battle, parting with 3,000 gold coins, or embarking on a quest to find Thrumbo, a legendary creature rumored to possess the torch.
Once in possession of the Torch of Revocation, players can return to the clandestine chamber they previously unlocked within Lady Jannath’s Estate. It is here that the true power of the torch can be unleashed. Equip the Torch of Revocation as your weapon of choice and interact with the haunting Painting of the Smiling Maiden. Watch as the flames from the torch consume the painting, revealing secrets and unraveling the mysteries that lie within.
Once players have reached this point, they will encounter the formidable spirit of Kerri Evenfield. However, by successfully passing a few ability checks, they may be able to avoid engaging in combat with her (just make sure not to provoke her.) As a result of this encounter, players will have the opportunity to speak with Oskar at the Atelier and receive a special gift from him.
