Baldur’s Gate 3 (BG3) Sentient Amulet: How to get & find
First of all, you will need to know where to go in order to obtain this amulet. Well, for that, you will have to make your way to the Adamantine Forge Area and look for an Adamantine chest. Now, if you already have access to the waypoint here, which is the Adamantine Forge Waypoint, all you need to do is fast-travel to this waypoint. If fast travel is not an option for you, then you will have to explore the Underdark areas a bit more. On the map, the Adamantine Forge area is south of the Underdark Gymforge region.
Once you get there, you will notice that it is a lava biome. So, you will need to tread carefully. If possible, try defeating the Lava Elemental that inhabits this region. Doing this will make your life much easier while you are searching for the Adamantine Chest. Yes, this is the chest where the amulet is located. This chest can be found at the given coordinates: X: 626 and Y: 224. Once you locate the chest with a bit of exploration, you will need to unlock it. Now, if you have a rogue character in your party with the required dexterity, you can easily pick the lock on this chest. Otherwise, the key to the chest can be looted from the skeleton lying nearby (opposite side of the lava).
How to get rid of the curse?
After you have found the Sentient Amulet, you can equip it to summon the cursed monk, the previous owner of it. Here is a quick tip: using a character with a low wisdom stat to equip the amulet might result in the character getting cursed. Therefore, it is recommended that you use a character with the highest wisdom stat. This is because you will have to pass a wisdom test upon equipping the amulet for the first time. With the required wisdom, you will see the cursed monk appear. A cutscene will follow, and you will be asked to take the amulet to the monk’s daughter.
Accepting this request will start the “Help the Cursed Monk” side quest, but upon completing it, you will lose the amulet. However, if you refuse to bring the amulet to his daughter, a fight will break out, and you will have to defeat the cursed monk, after which you can keep the amulet for yourself. Equipping this amulet will grant the players a level 2 shatter spell, restore two extra ki points after every long rest, and allow communication with the enclosed ghosts of the amulet.
