There are easier ways to kill Balthazar, but none quite so funny.
, inventory containers like pouches or backpacks seem to bork Baldur's Gate 3's usual rules, and Kill-bray found that shoving a Sussur Bloom into one such vessel let them take the item out of the Underdark.
Kill-bray then kept that preserved bloom in reserve for the first encounter with Balthazar, potentially dozens of hours after you first encounter Sussur Blooms and well into the game's second act. In Bethesda-style hot potato grenade reverse-pickpocket tradition, they slipped the bloom, still in its protective pouch, into Balthazar's inventory via the Sleight of Hand skill. Now that powerful wizard was stuck with a persistent spell-cancelling AoE localized on his person.
While it's possible to kill old Balth when you first meet him and be done with it, Kill-bray went the extra mile and waited for his proper climax fight at least a few more hours later . Because Baldur's Gate 3 uses persistent NPC data, as opposed to separate instances loaded for different encounters, Balthazar still had that anti-magic bloom in his pants. After delivering his big villain speech, he was stuck just running around until the party put him out of his misery.
It's yet another example of just how malleable Baldur's Gate 3 can be, even as you push past its every limit. Sussur Blooms were never meant to be taken out of their native habitat, and yet, brought to the farthest frontiers of Baldur's Gate 3, they still work exactly as intended.Sign up to get the best content of the week, and great gaming deals, as picked by the editors.
