Navigate the Chamber of Justice puzzle in Baldur's Gate 3. Learn how to cast Remove Curse, reveal hidden paintings, and choose the correct solution to appease the Judge.
Alright, let's tackle the Chamber of Justice puzzle in Baldur's Gate 3. It's a bit of a lore-heavy one, but figuring it out is pretty satisfying!
- 1First things first, you need to reveal the hidden paintings on the wall. The trick here is to cast Remove Curse on the shrouded plaques in front of the Judge. If you don't have the spell, don't worry! You can head back to camp and grab Shadowheart, as she usually has it. If she's unavailable, you can also have Gale learn the spell from a scroll.
- 2Once you've got Remove Curse ready, cast it on the plaques. This will reveal three final paintings: The Cell, The Hanging, and The Freedom.
- 3Now, you need to pick the correct painting to solve the puzzle. The right answer is The Cell. Place this painting in the empty Niche across from the Judge.
Why The Cell? Basically, the story on the paintings shows a man's journey from a petty criminal to the courthouse. The game's logic is that 'The Cell' represents a fair course of justice – not too harsh, not too lenient. 'The Hanging' is seen as overkill for a minor offense, and 'The Freedom' implies letting a criminal off scot-free, which isn't justice.
- If you happen to place the wrong painting, don't panic! You'll just have to fight some specters, similar to other puzzles in the Wyrmway. After the fight, you can try again.
- Solving this puzzle is a great way to get some extra lore about the game's world.
- Once you've solved it, you can move on to other chambers or head into the final room of the Wyrmway.
