ALL QUESTS CHECK-LIST

Baldur's Gate 3 is a massive game with many quests that can be easily missed. In this guide, I have compiled a checklist for those who would like to ensure they haven't missed any content. I created this guide based on the game's official wiki.

Introduction

First of all, English is not my native language, so I apologize for any grammatical errors.

Obviously, this guide will contain spoilers, so if you don't want to, avoid using this guide on your first playthrough.

This guide is not a step-by-step walkthrough, so you won't find exact information on where to locate the quests and how to complete them. Instead, it's a list to help you identify those you may have missed, just like I did. However, I've also provided a link to the Wiki[bg3.wiki] for each quest in case you need more details about it.

Disclaimer: I only included the beginning of quest chains. If you can't find one, please make sure it's not a subquest of any of the already listed quests.

I'm aware that there are companion quests that are automatically added to your journal, but the purpose of including them in the list is to explain how to trigger them.

Just added 'Explore the Ruins' in the Act 1 section. It’s been a while since I wrote this guide, not sure why I didn’t include this quest before.

[Astonishing Boy]

Explore the Ruins is not included in Act 1?

[RogueQueenie]

You can also get "Retrieve Omeluum" by talking to Blurg in The Lodge in the lower city.

[Harley]

Help Alfira with Weeping Dawn Song – If you choose to use her mentor's instrument, the reward will include the instrument and teaches any class character how to play.
Save single Teifling from Bugbar – hillside to the right of the main gate. Rewards a soul coin.
Help Teifling in shack (lesser restoration spell for paralysis)

I only included the beginning of quest-chains. The Shadow Druid's quest is a subquest of the Save the Refugees [bg3.wiki] questline. If you want to know more about it, feel free to check the link to this quest.
