Baldur's Gate 3: The Peaceful Way To Get The Druid Idol

Much of first act centers around the Emerald Grove, a safe haven for druids that is currently under threat. With goblins trying to fight their way inside and a group of Tiefling refugees seeking shelter, tensions within the grove are rising, and Kagha, its current leader, plans to undertake a magic rite to seal the grove off from the outside world. This rite, the Rite of Thorns, requires a special idol to take place: the Idol of Silvanus, which players can find at the grove's center.

For players looking to stop the Rite of Thorns and keep the druids from casting the Tieflings out, stealing this idol becomes an early quest.

But there are a few ways to get the Idol of Silvanus while keeping the peace in the grove, and committing the heist even allows players to give the idol to someone who needs it.

The Idol of Silvanus is deceptively well-guarded despite being loose in the center of a public area. When players first arrive in the grove, the idol is being used to conduct the Rite of Thorns, and numerous druids are standing close by, staring right at it. Distracting all these druids from their tasks at once is nearly impossible to accomplish, and if any of them see a player try to take the idol, they will stop them before they can.

But these approaches don't work with the idol.Area-of-effect spells that obscure the NPC's vision seem to be dispelled in the immediate vicinity of the idol, and invisibility or stealth almost always fail once players reach the idol's position. But even if they did work, taking this approach would still cause issues in the grove.
