Help Kith'rak Voss in Baldur's Gate 3: A Step-by-Step Guide
As you progress through the world of Baldur's Gate 3, you'll encounter various characters who can aid or hinder your progress. One such character is Kith'rak Voss, who offers to assist you in releasing Orpheus from his prison in the Astral Prism. However, completing this quest requires some effort, and we'll guide you through the process.
Quest Steps: Helping Kith'rak Voss
To complete the Help Kith'rak Voss quest, you'll need to follow these steps:
- Meet Voss in Baldur's Gate.
- Find and speak to Voss in Sharess' Caress.
- Speak to Raphael in Sharess' Caress.
- Tell Voss about the deal with Raphael.
- Retrieve the Orphic Hammer from the House of Hope.
- Show the Orphic Hammer to Voss.
Meeting Kith'rak Voss and Accepting His Quest
The Help Kith'rak Voss quest begins in Act 3, but you'll need to have met Voss previously in Act 1. After confronting Vlaakith at Rosymorn Monastery, Voss will meet you at your camp and request your assistance. You can then speak with him early in Act 3 at Sharess' Caress, where you'll find him in Raphael's room.
Approach Raphael and Voss, and Raphael will initiate a discussion with you and your party without Kith'rak. During this conversation, Raphael will make an offer to you that you can accept or refuse, involving the Crown of Karsus after defeating the Elder Brain.
If you accept Raphael's deal, he'll immediately offer you the Orphic Hammer, which you can then show to Voss to complete his quest.
Getting the Orphic Hammer from the House of Hope
If you decline Raphael's deal, you'll need to find another way to acquire the Orphic Hammer. You can do this by tracking down a diabolist in the Lower Cities, who will sneak you into the House of Hope for a fee.
Once inside the House of Hope, you'll meet Hope, a captured Cleric who you can save after acquiring the hammer. We recommend grabbing Hope and bringing her out with you, as she can aid you in combat and make surviving the House of Hope easier.
Defeating Raphael in Battle
After obtaining the Orphic Hammer and rescuing Hope, Raphael will meet you at the final door. You'll need to defeat him in battle, and we recommend focusing on his Cambion allies and the Soul Pillars he's using to empower himself.
Where to Find Kith'rak Voss in the Undercity
The final step in this quest is to track down Kith'rak Voss in the Undercity and show him the Orphic Hammer. You can find him to the northwest of the Guild, along the pathway of the small boat that takes you through the sewers.
