Get Gortash's Netherstone is a Quest in Act Three of Baldur's Gate 3. It can be started by speaking to Enver Gortash in the audience chamber above Wyrm's Rock Fortress.
Objectives
- Gortash left for Baldur's Gate. We should go after him.
- Baldur's Gate is near. We should find out where Gortash is.
- We discovered that Gortash is in Wyrm's Rock Fortress, where he will be sworn in as Archduke of Baldur's Gate. We need to make our way there.
- We made it to Wyrm's Rock Fortress and were invited to Gortash's inauguration upstairs.
- We found the audience hall of Wyrm's Rock Fortress and found Gortash involved in the midst of a ceremony.
- Gortash is protected by the Steel Watch. If we want to make a move against him, we should figure out how to deal with them first.
- We destroyed the Steel Watch Foundry. The Steel Watchers are now disabled, making Gortash an easier target.
- We obtained Orin's Netherstone. We should show it to Gortash if we want to follow through with his proposition.
- Gortash put forward a proposition. If we kill Orin and take her Netherstone, he will let us rule the city alongside him with the elder brain at our command.
- The Iron Throne is destroyed. Angered, Gortash will no longer wish to uphold the proposition he put forward to us.
- Gortash became hostile. If we want his Netherstone, we have to defeat him.
- We decided not to accept Gortash's proposition and destroyed the Steel Watch Foundry. The Steel Watchers are now disabled, making Gortash an easier target.
- We struck a deal with Gortash to control the elder brain together. We agreed to meet him under the city at the Morphic Pool, where the elder brain feeds.
- We killed Gortash. We should take his Netherstone.
- We defeated Gortash and took his Netherstone.
- The elder brain killed Gortash and we took his Netherstone. We now have all three
Walkthrough
After arriving in Baldur's Gate, the party needs to make their way from Rivington to Wyrm's Rock Fortress to get through to the Lower City. When the party completes , they can enter the fortress. Once they do, a Steel Watcher instantly stops them and tells them they are intruding. However, the Watcher is taken over by the voice of Gortash, who invites them to his coronation where they can speak about the future of the Netherstones.
After entering the Audience Hall and approaching Gortash, he speaks to the party and offers an alliance, and then completes his coronation as Archduke of the city. From there, the party must decide what to do with him.
Full-on Assault
Once the party arrives at Wyrm's Rock Fortress, they can choose to do battle with Gortash at any point after meeting him in the Audience Hall. Gortash can be fought with before his coronation has even ended. If the Steel Watch has not been disabled, then the fight is significantly more difficult. The party can also force Gortash's hand to some extent. If they speak to him without Orin's Netherstone, he gives them one warning not to come back until they have it. Trying to speak to him again causes him to be hostile to the party.
If Gortash is defeated without his Steel Watch disabled, then Elder Brain takes over the Steel Watch and uses them to destroy the Steel Watch Foundry. It then takes control of the remaining Steel Watchers. If this is done, then completing , , , and is not possible.
Disable the Steel Watch
In order to weaken Gortash's grip on the city, the party can undertake Iron Throne during this quest, Gortash warns them not to go there. If they do, this signals the end of any kind of deal between him and the party. He and the entire Wyrm's Rock Fortress become hostile upon approach.
. Completing this quest results in all the Steel Watchers around the city falling about, making the battle against Gortash easier. If the party goes to theGortash's Bargain
When the party arrives at Wyrm's Rock Fortress, Gortash invites them to his coronation as Archduke. If the party attends and speaks to Gortash, he offers them a pact - he won't attack them so long as they leave him and his Steel Watch alone. If the party agrees to take Orin's Netherstone and return to him, he will rule the city together with them. An Insight check (DC 15) reveals he fully intends to share his kingdom with the party.
If the party takes Gortash up on his offer, he asks them to give the Netherstones to him. If the party agrees, he turns on them, as he sees them as weak-willed. If the party refuses twice, then he tells them he was simply testing them, making sure they have the backbone to make proper allies. Gortash tells the party to keep the stones and meet him at the Morphic Pool so that they can take control of the Elder Brain. However, in the confrontation with the brain, regardless of what happens, it kills Gortash, forcing the party to take the last Netherstone.
In order to ally with Gortash, the party must give up on Avenge the Ironhands, Save the Gondians, Rescue the Grand Duke, and Disable the Steel Watch. The party also should not have killed his parents in the Lower City at Flymm's Cobblers. If these actions occur, Gortash sees it as a violation of his agreement and turns hostile to the party.
