Baldur’s Gate 3: How To Save Mayrina & Defeat Auntie Ethel
The diabolical hag Auntie Ethel controls the creepy southern edge of the map in Baldur’s Gate 3. This disgusting witch preys on the weak and vulnerable, luring you into her illusory world before ambushing you with disguised minions. Her lair is a series of difficult encounters that will test your cleverness — some of the traps and battles can be subverted or altered to make them easier. And the fight against Auntie Ethel herself seems (at first) overwhelming difficult. If you want to save Mayrina and put an end to Auntie Ethel, this is what you need to do.
