This article will guide you on how to complete the quest ”Rescue The Gnome” in Blighted Village of the game Baldur’s Gate 3.
Head northwest from Blighted Village Waypoint to encounter some goblins by a windmill. Approach them to initiate the Quest “Rescue the Gnome“.
You can immediately start a fight with the goblins if you want to save the gnome quickly.
If you want to save the gnome peacefully, you can ask the goblins what they’re doing with the gnome. Afterward, demand they release the gnome and you’ll be met with four options:
- [INTIMIDATION] I won’t let you harm a defenceless being – not without a fight.
- [PERSUASION] All of you lot against one deep gnome? You should find a better target.
- [DETECT THOUGHTS] Read the goblin’s mind.
- [ILLITHID] [WISDOM] You will release the gnome. That’s an order.
[INTIMIDATION]: you’ll have to pass a Dice Roll of 15
[PERSUASION]: you’ll have to pass a Dice Roll of 13
If you succeed goblins will leave, but the Gnome will remain trapped on the windmill, so you’ll have to find a way to get him down.
Move to the windmill’s rear and enter through the wall’s hole. Activate the Brake Lever to halt the windmill’s rotation.
