The Owlbear is one of the most territorial enemies you will face in Baldur’s Gate 3. Unlike other bosses, she has no quest of her own.
The Owlbear is a creature you will encounter during Act 1 of Baldur’s Gate 3, with her cub having a quest line of his own. The owlbear serves as the boss of an optional hidden cave, and you can kill her to obtain the Head of a Broken Spear.
While killing the Owlbear is not mandatory, she is extra hostile towards intruders. You may encounter her by accident or by following the cultists. Either way, this early-game boss poses a serious threat to the players.
We have listed all the choices you can make during this encounter and the best strategy to defeat Owlbear in Baldur’s Gate 3.Owlbear Nest location in Baldur’s Gate 3
Owlbear, alongside her cub and unhatched egg, resides in a cave (X: 85, Y: 448) Northeast of the Blighted Village. The cave mouth is right next to a riverbank.
You can either reach this cave directly or meet two cultists on the way. One of their partners has been killed by Owlbear, and they ask for your help. You can persuade them to fight Owlbear, but this will diminish your chances of talking with the beast.
Follow the cultists to reach the cave. Once inside, your characters will do an Arcana Check.
