Western Beach

Rivington


	Western Beach	→	South Span Checkpoint

The Western Beach is a Location within Rivington in Act Three of Baldur's Gate 3. It is an unnamed location, most easily accessed by taking the western path from the South Span Checkpoint.

Locations edit

Trail edit

The trail leading to the beach is littered with traps, including mines and tripwires. A dying man is found after the first section, who may be Orin in disguise if she has not been met at least two times prior.

Rivington cove confrontation edit

In the cove near Rivington, the party can encounter members of the Guild, led by Farlin, fighting a band of Stone Lord's thugs, led by Cairos at X: -220 Y: 94. Entering the area causes the party to be dragged into the conflict, where they can either help Farlin or fight both groups. Otherwise, the two groups start fighting if they are left alone for long enough.

If standing back and watching or choosing a neutral path, lets the party support the Guild. As a Bard, suggesting that the conflict be resolved by Flyting^[1] causes both sides to become hostile.

The following inspirations can be earned:

Backing the Established Players ( Noble background) - for supporting the guild
Cleaning up the Scum ( Haunted One background) - for killing both groups
Easy Pickings ( Criminal background) - for killing both groups
Stacking the Deck ( Criminal background) - for supporting the guild

If Minsc is present as party member, then some additional dialogue options occur, but it also results in everyone attacking the party.

One Mind Flayer Parasite Specimen can be found atop a barrel at X: -225 Y: 107.

Passageway edit

Along the southern cliff-side is an opening to a passageway at X: -233 Y: 84. This passageway was being used for smuggling by the Stone Lord and his men.

Some paintings and other loot can be found here, along with a trapped chest containing the Bonespike Boots.

Ship from Moonrise edit

Docked at the beach is a ship that sailed in from Moonrise Towers. On the ship is some loot, including two Mind Flayer Parasite Specimen (they disappear after a long rest) at X: -214 Y: 131.

Notes edit

↑ Flyting is a formal exchange of insults or taunts, often in verse form, typically between two individuals. It is a ritualistic practice of verbal sparring, sometimes found in ancient Norse myths and early English poems. The term evolved from the Norse word "flyta," meaning provocation.
