Baldur’s Gate 3 is full of stories and intrigues that you can intentionally or even unintentionally get caught up in. A particularly nasty schemer tests players’ patience from Act 1, even though she is still a child.
Who is the girl?
- Mol is a tiefling girl in the refugee camp in Act 1 of Baldur’s Gate 3. She is also the leader of the thieves’ gang, which consists only of children.
- You first meet her in her hideout, and she is only friendly to you if you help the other children in the camp.
- It is absolutely taboo to harm the children or even use them as a weapon. You have to let yourself be robbed if you don’t want to end up on Mol’s bad list.
That’s why she drives players to the brink: If you encounter Mol without having made a name for yourself first, she will rat you out to the adults. She simply claims that you harassed the children.
The consequence is that you will be approached by a guard and have two options: either you go willingly to jail, or you have to lie – with a difficulty level of a proud 20. For characters without charisma, this is nearly impossible at this level.
The problem is: if you end up in the cell, you will most likely face guards. The only way to get out is a breakout. But the guards don’t like that and will attack you.
What particularly annoys players is that Mol even “rats” you out to the guards if you refuse to let her accomplice above rob you. Anyone who has been in the camp will know who is being talked about.
Our tips make Baldur’s Gate 3 easier for you:
“I love the game, but I’ve hated Mol ever since”
In a thread on Reddit, a player complains specifically about this situation. SirEnder2Me wanted to avoid being robbed and simply didn’t talk to the “merchant” who sold him fake rings.
As an honorable character, he would like to tell the guards the truth, namely that he was harassed by the children, not the other way around. A “Persuasion” roll would be appropriate, but not “Deception.”
The thread received over 2,300 upvotes and over 800 comments, where other players agree and sometimes get quite deep into it…
According to some players, Mol is the only reason why they chose an evil route. The girl is so annoying that they joyfully send goblins to the camp instead of laboriously holding back the attack.
Especially players from the “Dark Desire” see Mol’s lie as an invitation to massacre the entire refugee camp. Some necromancers have even made it their mission to pack up the whole camp into their chest to have a stock of corpses…
If Mol evokes similar thoughts in you, you should keep in mind that each of your actions has a consequence that may not show for a long time:
