Baldur’s Gate III – Rise Above – Disabling the Guardian Statues

Yo, check this out! In the wild world of Baldur’s Gate 3, danger isn’t just lurking in the form of creepy creatures. Guardian statues, those lethal little rascals that can zap you when they spot you, can be a real pain too. But hey, don’t sweat it! The geniuses over at Larian Studios got our backs. They’ve baked in a couple of super cool ways to handle these statue guys. Let’s run through them – perfect for any party mix-up, by the way!

Smashing the Guardian Statues

Picture this. Early game, you’re sneaking around in this spooky Underground Passage, right? It hooks up to the Druid Grove, and that’s where you meet our stony friends – the Guardian statues. Now, you’ve got two choices: shatter them or turn them off. If you’re feeling feisty, go for the first one. Just line up a kick-a*s ranged attack like Warlock’s Eldritch Blast, and let it rip until that statue bites the dust.

Switching Off the Guardian Statues

Okay, so maybe you’re not in the mood to go all demolition mode. You’d rather switch ’em off. Fair enough. Keep an eye out for tablets with this snazzy blue light around. Red light on a tablet though? Watch out, that means it’s up to no good. The next step is getting to that switch to shut down the pesky statue. You could either sneak past like a pro or whip out something like a Fog Cloud for some classic misdirection. Pro tip when going stealth mode: Send one of your mates forward while the rest hang back, cuts down on the folks needing to tiptoe around. Hit that switch, and you’ll see the statue’s angry red light die down. Now you can stroll through the Underground Passage like you own the place. No more surprise blasts, promise!
