With 10 buddies to uncover and enlist in Baldur’s Gate 3, your roster will become overwhelming. Finding all of the accessible friends, on the other hand, is clearly more difficult, forcing many players to look in every direction and approach every encounter with extreme caution in order to avoid unintentionally fighting an available partner.
So, in order to assist you in capturing every companion in the game so that you can romance them, explore the land, or utilize them in combat, here are all the available companions in Baldur’s Gate 3:
- Astarion
- Shadowheart
- Gale
- Lae’zel
- Wyll
- Karlach
- Halsin
- Minthara
- Minsc
- Jaheira
Where to find Astarion in Baldur’s Gate 3
Astarion lies southwest of the Roadside Cliffs waypoint, near the ocean, right past the interior of the fallen Nautiloid. We know Astarion will stay here until you talk to him, but we don’t know where to find him after he leaves this region – if he ever does.
Where to find Shadowheart in Baldur’s Gate 3
Shadowheart is also first seen on the Nautiloid. To liberate Shadowheart from her pod, enter the room immediately to the right of where she is (not the room with the main quest marker), collect the Eldritch Rune from the body in the rear of the room, and then plug the rune into the console near Shadowheart’s pod.
Where to find Gale in Baldur’s Gate 3
Gale is actually found inside the Roadside Cliffs waypoint in Baldur’s Gate 3. Approach the purple swirling ‘Ancient Sigil Circle’ and touch release Gale.
Where to find Lae’Zel in Baldur’s Gate 3
You first meet Lae’Zel on board the Nautiloid near the very beginning, but you’re soon separated when the ship crashes. To find Lae’Zel, head northeast of the Roadside Cliffs waypoint.
Where to find Wyll in Baldur’s Gate 3
Wyll is inside The Hollow, west of Emerald Grove. If you walk past the merchant at the start of the Hollow, you’ll see Wyll training with some Tieflings.
Where to find Karlach in Baldur’s Gate 3
Karlach is found by a stream south of The Risen Road waypoint and tollhouse containing Paladins. Follow the path littered with dead Hyenas, then take the turning down to the stream and you’ll spot Karlach.
Where to find Halsin in Baldur’s Gate 3
Halsin is located in the Worg Pen, which is past the northeastern corner of Shattered Sanctum at the Goblin Camp. You have to fight some Goblins in the Worg Pen to free Halsin though.
Where to find Minthara in Baldur’s Gate 3
Minthara is one of the most missable companions in Baldur’s Gate 3, as she’s actually one of your targets if you choose to side with the Tieflings during the Goblin attack storyline in Act 1.
Where to find Minsc in Baldur’s Gate 3
Minsc stays in the Lower City of Baldur’s Gate. You have to go to the Counting House and speak with one of the bankers to reveal his location.
Where to find Jaheira in Baldur’s Gate 3
Jaheira is first located during Act 2 at the Last Light Inn in the Shadow Cursed Lands area. To fully recruit her, you have to continue all the way to the end of Act 2. She’ll then automatically appear at your camp near the end of Act 2.
That’s where to find the companions in Baldur’s Gate 3 as I’ll see you in the next guide.
