Stuck at Ramazith's Tower? Follow this guide to solve the Arcane Barrier puzzle, grab the Markoheshkir staff, and the Robe of the Weave in Baldur's Gate 3.

Alright, so you've made it to Ramazith's Tower, which is also known as Sorcerer's Sundries. Up the stairs, you'll find a puzzle involving portals. The goal here is to get to the good stuff hidden behind some magical barriers. First things first, you need to head through the white portal. After that, you'll see some floating furniture – think of it as your own personal magical obstacle course. Jump across these to get to a lower level where a wizard and his elemental buddies are chilling.

Once you land on that lower floor, look for a Weave button on the northwest side. Hit that, and if you've picked the right portal, you'll be zapped to a platform right in front of the Arcane Barrier puzzle. This is where the real challenge begins!

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Find the See Invisibility Potion: You're on a platform, right? Look around – there's a Gilded Chest nearby. You'll need to either pick its lock or just smash it open to get a See Invisibility Potion. Don't worry, the chest doesn't have anything else super important, so go ahead and break it if lockpicking isn't your strong suit.
  2. 2
    Consume the Potion: Once you've got the potion, drink it up! This is key because it'll reveal two hidden levers that are crucial for dispelling the barriers.
  3. 3
    Locate and Pull the Levers: With the potion active, you'll see the two levers. You need to pull these to make the Arcane Barriers vanish. Here's the tricky part: pulling each lever requires you to pass an Intelligence check, and you need to roll a 20. Yes, a natural 20!
  4. 4
    Dealing with Failed Rolls: If you don't roll a 20, don't panic. You can use your Inspiration Points to reroll. However, if you fail the check and can't reroll, that specific lever's barrier won't lift, and you won't get the loot behind it. So, before you attempt to pull the levers, it's a really good idea to save your game. That way, if you mess up the rolls, you can just reload and try again without losing too much progress.
  5. 5
    Claim Your Rewards: Once you successfully pull both levers and lift the Arcane Barriers, you can finally grab the awesome gear inside. You'll get the legendary Markoheshkir staff and the Robe of the Weave, which is a fantastic chest piece for Wizards with its 10 AC.
Tips
  • Make sure you have a character with a high Intelligence score, or at least someone who can use Inspiration effectively, before attempting the lever checks.
  • Saving your game right before you try to pull the levers is highly recommended. A natural 20 is tough to get!
  • If you're struggling to find the Weave button on the northwest side after going through the initial portal, take a moment to look around the environment. Sometimes the lighting can make it a bit tricky to spot.
  • Markoheshkir (Legendary Staff)
  • Robe of the Weave (Clothing - 10 AC)
