Like other CRPGs before it, there are plenty of items to acquire in Larian Studios’ latest sequel. One that may catch your eye is called a Bloodstone, but how do you get and use Bloodstones in Baldur’s Gate 3? We’ve done the legwork, so read on to find out.
What Are BG3 Bloodstones & How to Use Them
Essentially, Bloodstones in Baldur’s Gate 3 are semi-precious gems you can find as you explore the Forgotten Realms. They are worth 75 Gold Coins each if you sell them to a trader, which makes them quite a lucrative item early on.
Their in-game description reads: “Anyone can squeeze blood from a stone if the edges are sharp enough.”
From what we can gather, there isn’t a utile use for them outside of trading. While there could be another mysterious use for them, no-one seems to know what it is yet. If we do learn more, we’ll make sure to update this page. As a result, we suggest you sell Bloodstones to vendors to help make yourself some quick moolah in the meantime.
How to Get Bloodstones
While you occasionally find Bloodstones on the bodies of fallen enemies, you can also discover some in the Defiled Temple in the Shattered Sanctum just before the Stone Disc puzzle. Specifically, you can find them on the body of a dead True Soul Gut, which you can loot.
Past that, they have a high chance to appear as loot from more basic enemies and containers throughout Acts 1 and 2. After that, they aren’t as easy to find due to the fact that higher quality gems replace them within the loot pool of enemies and containers.
And with that, we conclude our guide on how do you get and use Bloodstones in Baldur’s Gate 3. For more, here’s whether you should open the Caravan Strongbox and how to get Devilfoil Masks.
