Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 players say one side-quest is best left uncompleted Larian StudiosThere are many, many quests available in Baldur\u2019s Gate 3, but players seem to agree that one Act 3 side-quest should remain unfinished. Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 is a massive game with lots for players to do. Its three acts are packed with main and side-quests that add to its world and story while allowing players to unlock unique items. However, it\u2019s not possible to access everything in a single playthrough. Some quests are arguably not worth finishing either. One Act 3 side-quest in particular stands out for being frustrating to complete, giving an underwhelming reward, and actually having some negative gameplay repercussions if finished. Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 players say they\u2019re never doing the Dribbles the Clown quest again The quest in question is \u201cFind Dribbles the Clown,\u201d which players unlock after reaching the Circus of The Last Days. It\u2019s a particularly gruesome task, as it involves locating seven pieces of Dribbles the Clown\u2019s dismembered corpse and bringing them back to circus ringleader Lucretious to be revived. As players have noted, finding all of Dribbles\u2019 pieces can be incredibly frustrating. \u201cI\u2019m on my 3rd runthrough and still haven\u2019t figured out where all his damn parts are,\u201d said one player. \u201cBy the hells, this is the opposite of a clown car. How much area can be covered by one clown,\u201d joked another. Not helping the situation is the fact that Dribbles is pretty heavy. As one player complained, \u201cHIS F***** BODY IS LIKE 400 POUNDS.\u201d On top of all of that, the reward for completing \u201cFind Dribbles the Clown\u201d isn\u2019t really worth it for many players. Upon returning all of Dribbles, Lucretious give you the very rare Spellmight Gloves which, when equipped, let you take a -5 penalty to the attack roll when casting a spell to deal an extra 1d8 damage. The extra damage can be helpful, but it comes at a risk, and since it doesn\u2019t apply to Magic Missile (following Patch 4) or spells that require saving throws, some builds may not find much use for them. Making the quest even less appealing is the fact that, once completed, the circus will pack up and leave. This means losing access to its vendors, which are generally more valuable than the gloves. \u201cMy reward was losing my dye vendor,\u201d lamented one player, who also said, \u201cI\u2019m never doing that quest again.\u201d Considering those who do want the Spellmight Gloves can simply steal them from Lucretious, it seems there\u2019s really no upside to tracking down all seven pieces of poor Dribbles \u2013 and some clear downsides to completing the quest.
