Can I do House of Hope after Orin and Gortash?
Yes, you can absolutely do the House of Hope after defeating both Orin and Gortash in Baldur's Gate 3, and it's a popular choice to save it for later to get powerful gear before the final endgame push. While killing Gortash makes the Steel Watch disappear and can impact the Iron Throne quest if you haven't done it, it doesn't lock you out of the House of Hope itself; you'll just need to find the entrance via the Lower City's Devil's Fee or Crypts.Can I kill Raphael after Orin and Gortash?

Next time you get to Act 3, House of hope will probably be one of the first things to do - amazing loot 😂 If you ended Gortash, ending Orin will basically trigger the final storyline & battle and I don't think you can get to other side quests after collecting the 3rd stone.Can you still do side quests after getting all netherstones?

Shadowheart is consistently the most romanced character in Baldur's Gate 3, with Larian Studios statistics showing over 50% of players reaching the end of her romance arc, followed by Karlach and Lae'zel, though Astarion is also incredibly popular for his extensive content and character development. Her popularity stems from being an early, accessible companion with a compelling, mysterious backstory that unfolds beautifully through romance.Â
Is there a time limit in the House of Hope?
House of Hope is not one of those things. You can take as long as you want to start it, and as long as you want to screw around inside of it.

They don't infinitely respawn.Should I play Ansur before or after Gortash?
For Baldur's Gate 3, most players tackle Ansur after Gortash, often saving Ansur for last or near-last in Act 3, especially after clearing the Iron Throne/Foundry to make Gortash's fight easier, as Ansur provides powerful gear and a major lore payoff that feels good to complete before the final push to the brain, but you can do Ansur anytime after rescuing <<< !nav>>Wyll's dad and learning about him, though it's often best to leave these big bosses (Gortash, Ansur, Orin) for when you're Level 12.ÂHow does killing Orin affect the ending?

The owlbear egg doesn't do any harm to the Society if you give it to Esther, so you should still be able to find Blurg there in Act III and save Omeluum. It only becomes a problem if you give her the Githyanki egg, because it turns out most of the Society are a bunch of hypocrites.Should I bring Laezel to the House of Hope?
Does not matter. Lae Zel is necessary for the very last mission after defeating Orin and the other 2 chosen. You can still do House of hope first then rescue her. The order does not matter.Does BG3 actually have 17000 endings?

The hardest characters to romance in Baldur's Gate 3 often depend on player choices, but Shadowheart, due to her complex backstory and trust issues, Minthara, requiring specific (often evil) pathing and potentially buggy interactions, and Karlach, needing precise dialogue choices early on, are frequently cited as challenging. Astarion can also be difficult because of his guarded nature, while Halsin requires extensive commitment to lifting the Shadow Curse in Act 2.ÂShould I free Orpheus or kill Gortash first?
You generally can't free Orpheus before killing Gortash because freeing him (or making the choice to) happens after the point of no return that killing Gortash triggers; instead, focus on the Iron Throne and Steel Watch Foundry quests first, get the Orphic Hammer from House of Hope, then kill Gortash, and then the endgame/Orpheus decision becomes available as the story moves forward. Prioritizing the Foundry/Iron Throne makes Gortash easier and locks in vital Act 3 content, but the Orpheus choice itself comes later, near the endgame, requiring the Orphic Hammer to free him, says a Reddit user.ÂWhich companion does Orin kidnap?
In Baldur's Gate 3, the Bhaalist Orin kidnaps a specific companion from your camp: typically Lae'zel, Halsin, Gale, or Minthara, in that priority order; if none are available or present, she'll kidnap the young girl Yenna, often killing her cat Scratch as a backup. She won't take your romanced character or anyone currently in your active party, using Yenna as a "failsafe" if other options are unavailable.ÂIs there a good ending for Karlach?
Yes, Karlach has several endings in Baldur's Gate 3, with the "best" being subjective but generally leaning towards her embracing her infernal heart by becoming an illithid (mind flayer) or, if romanced, potentially going to Avernus with you to fight for freedom, though some consider these bittersweet as they don't fully "fix" her original problem. The most heroic/happy (but bittersweet) option involves her accepting the tadpole to become a mind flayer, allowing her to live, be celebrated as a hero, and potentially find peace or power.ÂCan you get the sword of justice without killing Karlach?

Yes, you can save Wyll's father (Duke Ravengard) even after killing Gortash, but it requires you to have broken Wyll's pact with Mizora and then rescue him from the Iron Throne; if you kill Gortash before going to the Iron Throne, the prison collapses and he dies unless Mizora revives him at camp after you make another deal with her, but the best way is breaking the pact and then rescuing him from the actual prison before the time runs out.ÂCan you avoid a fight with Ansur?
Yes, you can avoid fighting Ansur in Baldur's Gate 3, as the encounter is part of Wyll's personal quest, but skipping it means missing out on powerful loot like Balduran's Sword and potentially affecting Wyll's ending and Karlach's fate, though you can still get the Helm of Balduran by looting his corpse during combat or even before it starts if you're sneaky.ÂCan I sleep with everyone in Act 1 BG3?
Yes, you can flirt with and sleep with multiple companions in Baldur's Gate 3 Act 1, especially at the celebration party, but you're generally limited to two active romances before the game forces you to choose one in Act 2, though some companions (like Astarion, Shadowheart, Lae'zel, and Halsin) are more open to polyamory, while others (Gale, Wyll) are strictly monogamous, and using mods can bypass these limits.ÂAt what point should I go to the House of Hope?
