The Baldur’s Gate 3 arcane barrier in Ramazith’s Tower surrounds two powerful items that are difficult to get. A legendary staff and a set of legendary robes rest on tables that are protected by blue, magical, spherical barriers. Getting to this special area of the tower is already tough and a bit obscure, since you might need to kill a certain boss (just to keep things vague) and it requires jumping on some floating tables to reach the lower level of the tower where these items wait. Here’s how to deactivate the arcane barriers in Ramazith’s Tower in BG3.
How to get past BG3 arcane barrier in Ramazith’s Tower
To get past the arcane barriers surrounding the legendary items in Baldur’s Gate 3, you need to do the following steps:
- Use the See Invisibility spell, scroll, or potion – When you are close to the magical barriers, cast this spell so that you can see several levers that control the arcane shields.
- Activate the levers by passing a skill check – You’re going to need a character with a very high INT stat to pass the very high DC 20 check. In fact, you’ll need to pass two checks as there are two levers.
- Grab the staff and robes – For your trouble, you’ll finally obtain the two legendary items
To complete the second step, you may want to cast the Enhance Ability spell on the character pulling the levers. It’s a simple Level 2 Transmutation spell that will give the party member advantage on ability checks with a chosen ability (in this case, Intelligence). You may also need to use some save scumming, as the DC 20 check is fairly difficult, to make sure you can activate both levers.
Once you deactivate the barriers, there are more areas in the tower than you can loot. In particular, there are some vaults that are close to the room with the weave buttons teleporters. You may also find a “See Invisibility” potion here among the treasure in case you don’t have a scroll or spellcaster with that spell.
