This specific mark offers some good and bad perks. Just know that the bad side doesn’t affect how you play the game. It is a small drawback, but even these small ones may stick out like a sore thumb. Anyway, here’s the complete process for how to brand yourself with the Mark of the Absolute in BG3.
Baldur’s Gate 3 (BG3) Mark of the Absolute: How to get & find
The word “absolute” has a deeper meaning. There are absolute-specific gears in the game that you can use after getting this mark; there are achievements and even a special ending associated with it. So, let’s see how you can be a part of this Absolute Gang and also the steps to branding yourself.
How do you get the Mark of the Absolute in BG3?
- To get this mark, you will have to visit the Goblin Camp in Shattered Sanctum.
- Once you reach there, don’t kill anyone. You can use Illithid wisdom to avoid any deadly encounter.
- After entering the doors of the Sanctum, you will soon meet a few goblin guards. You can either kill them or speak with them; the outcome won’t change. However, we recommend not engaging in a fight.
- Once you are inside the Sanctum, you will meet the goblin priestess Gut.
- Interact with her, choose a dialogue that leads to a peaceful conversation, and accept the offer to be branded with the mark when she asks you to.
- Now, she will start branding you with the Mark of the Absolute, and after it’s done, you can walk past any goblin camps like a boss.
Note: You can opt to free a goblin named Sazza from Druid Grove camp, and she can also guide you to the same goblin camp. One way or another, the rest of the steps play out the same, so we recommend ditching her and moving on your own.
Choose your side—Goblin or Druid
There are two groups, goblins and druids, who are blood enemies of each other. If you side with any party, then the other will surely want to kill you. When you are branded with the Mark of the Absolute, you will officially take the side of goblins. It may sound strange, but know that there are far more goblin encounters in this game than druid encounters. So you can just choose to walk right past goblin camps with this mark.
Well, that’s it for this guide. Now you can side with the goblins or continue progressing as you see fit. That said, we hope you find this guide informative. If you want to learn how to get the Amulet of Devout in BG3, click here. Follow Android Gram for more interesting content.
