As with a lot of decisions in Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 like using Illithid Powers, it\u2019s a sliding doors moment with two different outcomes, each with its own consequences. It\u2019s important to know what those consequences are. How to start the Steal a Githyanki Egg quest in BG3 This is one of the easier quests to begin in Baldur's Gate 3. It happens after taking the Mountain Pass to Githyanki Creche. First go to Rosymorn Monastery (coordinates: X: 18 Y: 22). By the Trielta Crags Waypoint, you can find an NPC called Lady Esther. If you accept her request to retrieve a Githyanki Egg, the quest will begin. How to steal the Githyanki Egg for Lady Esther in BG3 To complete the quest, you'll need to retrieve the Githyanki Egg in Creche Yllek by fighting or talking your way through the Creche Guards, heading to the Creche Hatchery, and convincing Varsh Ko'kuu to hand it over, or killing him. What happens if you give Lady Esther the Githyanki Egg in BG3? If you give Lady Esther the Githyanki Egg, she\u2019ll reward you with 258 Gold. The caveat is she\u2019ll close her shop for good immediately after, so it\u2019s a good idea to buy everything you need beforehand. If you\u2019re feeling malevolent, you can kill her and loot her best and rarest wares, too. Related Baldur\u2019s Gate 3: Should you open the Caravan Strongbox in BG3? What happens if you don\u2019t give Lady Esther the Githyanki Egg in BG3? If you don\u2019t give Lady Esther the Githyanki Egg, she\u2019ll attack you without hesitation. She is a level five enemy, and she drops a bunch of items including poisons, scrolls, armor, a rapier, and a letter to start a new quest. These are pretty valuable and sell for a decent chunk of gold, so it's not a bad option compared to her reward. Lady Esther can turn invisible, so it\u2019s a good idea to have a party member with Volo\u2019s Ersatz Eye inserted, allowing them to see all invisible units within nine meters. It made the fight a lot easier. Beyond that, she's a pretty straightforward opponent. You can easily overwhelm her with successive strikes. If you want to increase your odds even more, you can tell her you\u2019re still in the process of retrieving the Githyanki Egg, then ambush her. You can also give her an Owlbear Egg instead if you want to keep the Githyanki Egg, but that\u2019s not the best idea considering you can sell it to other vendors for a whopping 750 Gold. Should you give Lady Esther the Githyanki Egg in BG3? The decision comes down to how you want things to pan out, but giving Lady Esther the Githyanki Egg is the better choice from an objective standpoint. You can accept the reward and fight her after anyway if you really want to. It\u2019s the best of both worlds, so why not at least accept her reward first?","apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/lady-esther-bg3.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/928314"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2123"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=928314"}],"version-history":[{"count":17,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/928314\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":961065,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/928314\/revisions\/961065"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/928315"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=928314"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=928314"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=928314"},{"taxonomy":"invoiceable_action","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/invoiceable_action?post=928314"},{"taxonomy":"internal-label","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/internal-label?post=928314"},{"taxonomy":"article_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_type?post=928314"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=928314"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}

As with a lot of decisions in Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 like using Illithid Powers, it\u2019s a sliding doors moment with two different outcomes, each with its own consequences. It\u2019s important to know what those consequences are. How to start the Steal a Githyanki Egg quest in BG3 This is one of the easier quests to begin in Baldur's Gate 3. It happens after taking the Mountain Pass to Githyanki Creche. First go to Rosymorn Monastery (coordinates: X: 18 Y: 22). By the Trielta Crags Waypoint, you can find an NPC called Lady Esther. If you accept her request to retrieve a Githyanki Egg, the quest will begin. How to steal the Githyanki Egg for Lady Esther in BG3 To complete the quest, you'll need to retrieve the Githyanki Egg in Creche Yllek by fighting or talking your way through the Creche Guards, heading to the Creche Hatchery, and convincing Varsh Ko'kuu to hand it over, or killing him. What happens if you give Lady Esther the Githyanki Egg in BG3? If you give Lady Esther the Githyanki Egg, she\u2019ll reward you with 258 Gold. The caveat is she\u2019ll close her shop for good immediately after, so it\u2019s a good idea to buy everything you need beforehand. If you\u2019re feeling malevolent, you can kill her and loot her best and rarest wares, too. Related Baldur\u2019s Gate 3: Should you open the Caravan Strongbox in BG3? What happens if you don\u2019t give Lady Esther the Githyanki Egg in BG3? If you don\u2019t give Lady Esther the Githyanki Egg, she\u2019ll attack you without hesitation. She is a level five enemy, and she drops a bunch of items including poisons, scrolls, armor, a rapier, and a letter to start a new quest. These are pretty valuable and sell for a decent chunk of gold, so it's not a bad option compared to her reward. Lady Esther can turn invisible, so it\u2019s a good idea to have a party member with Volo\u2019s Ersatz Eye inserted, allowing them to see all invisible units within nine meters. It made the fight a lot easier. Beyond that, she's a pretty straightforward opponent. You can easily overwhelm her with successive strikes. If you want to increase your odds even more, you can tell her you\u2019re still in the process of retrieving the Githyanki Egg, then ambush her. You can also give her an Owlbear Egg instead if you want to keep the Githyanki Egg, but that\u2019s not the best idea considering you can sell it to other vendors for a whopping 750 Gold. Should you give Lady Esther the Githyanki Egg in BG3? The decision comes down to how you want things to pan out, but giving Lady Esther the Githyanki Egg is the better choice from an objective standpoint. You can accept the reward and fight her after anyway if you really want to. It\u2019s the best of both worlds, so why not at least accept her reward first?","apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/lady-esther-bg3.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/928314"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2123"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=928314"}],"version-history":[{"count":17,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/928314\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":961065,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/928314\/revisions\/961065"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/928315"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=928314"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=928314"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=928314"},{"taxonomy":"invoiceable_action","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/invoiceable_action?post=928314"},{"taxonomy":"internal-label","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/internal-label?post=928314"},{"taxonomy":"article_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_type?post=928314"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=928314"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
