Along with some fantastic companions, Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 doesn\u2019t let up on its Gods and their personalities. Despite never getting to see any of these divine beings, their presence is felt throughout the story, and none is as prominent as the Mistress of the Night, the Lady of Loss, Shar herself. As Shadowheart\u2019s prime deity, you\u2019re invited to take part in what\u2019s called Shar\u2019s Gauntlet. A trial that allows Shadowheart to become a Dark Justiciar. Naturally, that questline is pretty tricky and involves a challenging decision right at the end. Depending on your choice, you\u2019ll either gain Shar\u2019s favor or lose her forever. One player managed to entirely confuse Shar and get the worst of both worlds. Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 player fails Shar\u2019s Gauntlet by tricking Lady Shar Sharing their rather unfortunate story on Reddit, one user gave some advice on how to \u201cbamboozle Lady Shar\u201d: \u201cI reached Shadowfell as Shadowheart after passing all of Shar\u2019s gauntlet trials and obtaining the spear. I made short work of Nightsong, saw the cutscene of Last Light Inn dome crumbling, and got all of Lady Shar\u2019s boons.\u201d Many players choose to take down Nightsong and gain Shar\u2019s boons: \u201cHowever immediately as I exited through the portal I got the cutscene of Lady Shar cursing me for not completing my mission, being marked as the enemy, and Shadowheart asking forgiveness as we teleport out.\u201d This cutscene is usually reminiscent of not taking down Nightsong and failing to complete the Gauntlet of Shar, which is rather confusing to the player, as they did exactly that. Essentially, they disguised themselves as a female elf and completed the Nightsong sequence, which resulted in a failure: \u201cApparently if you do the whole Nightsong sequence disguised as someone else(a femme elf in my case), even though you kill Nightsong you\u2019ll end up with the quest updating as a failure! You still keep the upgraded Dark Justiciar items though, so that\u2019s cool?\u201d Naturally, the community found the story both hilarious and fantastically true to character, with one user explaining how that \u201cChecks out. Shar is the pettiest god out there. Her being offended you had to disguise yourself to do the quest is on point.\u201d It makes sense that Shar would be annoyed to find out the player disguised themselves to complete the gauntlet, but with the God being an expert in trickery, many would expect her to find it rather fitting.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 player \u201cbamboozles\u201d Lady Shar with simple disguise Larian StudiosOne Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 player has bamboozled Lady Shar using a simple yet hilarious trick, leaving them with all the bonuses of a success, but all the ramifications of a failed quest.
