Avenge the Drowned Quest in Baldur’s Gate 3
Avenge the Drowned quest in Baldur’s Gate 3 starts with uncovering the beast responsible for killing a Waveservant of Umberlee, leading to crucial allies and further quests.
Starting the Quest
To begin, go to the House of the Water Queen in the Lower City of Baldur’s Gate. You’ll see a funeral procession for Holli, who was killed by a beast in Grey Harbor. Speak with Flood Tide Allandra Grey. Donating to her reveals more about the beast. Alternatively, use the Speak with Dead spell on Holli’s corpse to learn the beast patrols Grey Harbor.
Locating the Beast
Find the beast near Flymm’s Cargo warehouse in Grey Harbor. Residents will provide information, and a fisherman confirms its location. In the depths of the basement, find an underground docking area with a submersible and Redhammer the Deviser, the beast’s creator.
Redhammer reveals the submersible transports prisoners to the Iron Throne, an underwater prison. You can kill Redhammer now or wait until you visit the Iron Throne. Handing him over to the Waveservants completes the quest.
Reaching the Iron Throne
To reach the Iron Throne, use Redhammer’s submarine. This will anger Gortash. Inside, you have six turns to save prisoners who can aid your fight against the Elder Brain.
Saving the Gondians
To save the Gondians, split your party and free prisoners in the western and eastern wings. Save Grand Duke Ravengard in the eastern wing to gain his help along with the Order of the Flaming Fist. Save Omeluum in the southwestern wing; he can teleport back to the submersible.
Strategies to Save All Prisoners Within Six Turns
- Save before starting the challenge.
- Prioritize your character and prisoners.
- Use Haste for extra actions and defense.
- Use potions and elixirs to enhance abilities.
- Summon creatures to aid in battle.
- Use Invisibility or Misty Step to navigate stealthily.
After completing these tasks, you can decide whether to turn Redhammer in or side with him. Turning him in completes the quest; siding with him leads to a battle with the Waveservants.
Gaining Allies
Focus on gaining more allies for the final battle against the Mind Flayer army.
