The Ultimate Guide to Acquiring and Harnessing Devilfoil Masks in Baldur's Gate 3

Baldur's Gate 3 offers a wide range of equipment that can enhance a character's stats and abilities. Among them is the Devilfoil Mask, which has a unique effect. However, this effect may not be appealing to most players. The mask increases the wearer's Strength by 1 point, but at the cost of reducing Intelligence, Wisdom, and Charisma by 1 point.

As a result, this item is not particularly useful, even for warriors, leading players to sell these masks. However, Dammon, the blacksmith, can utilize Devilfoil Masks in crafting items. Therefore, it is advisable to give these masks to the blacksmith, even if the players themselves have no need for them.

BG3: Devilfoil Masks Locations

There are a total of four Devilfoil Masks in Baldur’s Gate 3. They are conveniently located in the Grymforge area, making them easy to find.

In the Abandoned Refuge, players will encounter three dwarves at coordinates X:-661; Y:443. These dwarves refuse to work and instruct players to whip two Deep Rothe. If players possess the ability to communicate with animals, they can convince the creatures to rebel against their oppressive masters and help clear the path blocked with stones. Alternatively, if players cannot communicate with animals, they can confront the dwarves directly and remove the stones themselves. Upon entering the area, players will discover the Devilfoil Mask near the staircase.

To find the next mask, players should continue up the stairs until they reach the tower. Then turn right, and there will be traps on the bridge that can be simply jumped over.

Afterward, players must descend the iron ladder and leap onto the suspended platform. The companion character should operate the levers to manipulate the platform.

Subsequently, the players should proceed to pick the lock of the Double Iron Doors. Upon entering the room, they should ascend the nearest staircase. On the right, they will encounter Double Doors that can be either lockpicked or forcefully breached. Inside, they will encounter various adversaries, including a formidable Merregon Legionnaire, who may yield the second Devilfoil Mask.

The third is in the same room on the table in front of a large mirror.

The last Devilfoil Mask is located in the main hall at coordinates X:-617; Y:326. It is on the table.

How to Use Devilfoil Masks in BG3

Wearing a Devilfoil Mask within 20 meters enhances the character's Strength by 1 point, while decreasing their Intelligence, Wisdom, and Charisma by 1 point. If all the characters in the party don this mask, they collectively gain a significant boost of 3 points to Strength. This can be particularly advantageous for specific party configurations, although it is infrequently employed in such manner.

The Devilfoil Masks have an additional use in Baldur's Gate 3. They can be utilized by the character Dammon in Act 2 to create the powerful Orthon Explosive. Players will encounter Dammon at the Last Light Inn located in the Shadow-cursed Lands. The Orthon Explosive is a highly destructive grenade that can be hurled to inflict significant damage.

Baldur's Gate 3 is currently accessible on PC and PS5, and there is also an ongoing development for an Xbox Series X version.
