There is another option instead of saving or raiding Emerald Grove in BG3. We consider the third option best of both worlds. In this optio.
Baldur’s Gate 3 keeps presenting the players with difficult choices and moral dilemmas. Some of the outcomes of your choices have minor impacts, while others can change the whole course of the game. One such choice appears before the players during the first act of BG3 when you can either save Emerald Grove and its residents or raid it with Goblins to kill everyone.
This is a very difficult choice to make regarding the outcomes. However, we will be guiding you through the whole process by explaining the consequences of every single choice you make. Which companions will you end up losing or locking yourself out of quests/endings. So, let’s begin. Shall we?What happens if you raid Emerald Grove with goblins and Minthara in BG3
To raid Emerald Grove instead of saving it in BG3, you first need to side with the Nightwarden Minthara. She is available in the Shattered Sanctum area of the goblin camp. Kill Halsin before you approach her to get her approval. Lead her to the Emerald Grove and help her kill all the Tieflings and Druids. You can make the fight a bit easier by stealing the Sacred Idol creating a battlefield between Druids and Tieflings.
The raid on Emerald Grove only becomes successful if you kill Rath, Zevlor, Halsin, Kagha and Wyll. Karlach being a Tiefling disapproves of your actions and leaves the party. If you haven’t recruited her yet, you won’t be able to do it in the future. However, it allows you to romance Minthara and recruit her later in the game.
This will also lock you out from gaining Halsin’s help with the parasite inside your brain.
