As you continue your adventure, you learn that these parasites possess an untapped power. Will you use them and unlock your true potential? Or will you choose to stay pure? The choice is up to you, but just in case, we have a whole list of the parasite locations. In order to optimize your Illithid Powers, you\u2019ll need to get as many of these parasites, formally named \u201cMind Flayer Parasite Specimen,\u201d as possible, and you need a complete list of where to get them. So here it is, our list of where to get every Mind Flayer Parasite Specimen in Baldur\u2019s Gate 3.\u00a0 Our gamers are still playing through the game and finding more as we make our way through our respective campaigns, so this piece will be updated as we continue to find more. BG3 Mind Flayer Parasite Specimen locations If you interact with a character that has a parasite for the first time, more often than not, there will be dialogue cues that make it clear. Your minds will connect in some way, shape, or form, and usually, the narrator will even tell you that they are also infected. If you have not already noticed by the complete urgency that the Dream Visitor has for you to eat the parasites, well, they definitely have something to do with it. Their role in eating the parasites is a huge game-changer near the end of your playthrough. It is your choice to trust your Dream Visitor or ignore them. Act One Mind Flayer Locations in BG3 Companions: One of the first things you realize when you start to speak with Shadowheart, Astarion, Karlach, Wyll, Lae\u2019zel, and Gale is that you are all infected by a Mind Flayer parasite that connects you.

As you continue your adventure, you learn that these parasites possess an untapped power. Will you use them and unlock your true potential? Or will you choose to stay pure? The choice is up to you, but just in case, we have a whole list of the parasite locations. In order to optimize your Illithid Powers, you\u2019ll need to get as many of these parasites, formally named \u201cMind Flayer Parasite Specimen,\u201d as possible, and you need a complete list of where to get them. So here it is, our list of where to get every Mind Flayer Parasite Specimen in Baldur\u2019s Gate 3.\u00a0 Our gamers are still playing through the game and finding more as we make our way through our respective campaigns, so this piece will be updated as we continue to find more. BG3 Mind Flayer Parasite Specimen locations If you interact with a character that has a parasite for the first time, more often than not, there will be dialogue cues that make it clear. Your minds will connect in some way, shape, or form, and usually, the narrator will even tell you that they are also infected. If you have not already noticed by the complete urgency that the Dream Visitor has for you to eat the parasites, well, they definitely have something to do with it. Their role in eating the parasites is a huge game-changer near the end of your playthrough. It is your choice to trust your Dream Visitor or ignore them. Act One Mind Flayer Locations in BG3 Companions: One of the first things you realize when you start to speak with Shadowheart, Astarion, Karlach, Wyll, Lae\u2019zel, and Gale is that you are all infected by a Mind Flayer parasite that connects you. If you kill any of them, you\u2019ll be out of a companion permanently. We advise not to kill companions\u2014however, if you're playing just to enhance your Illithid powers, then friends are not an option. Below are the locations of parasites you can grab off of non-companions in Act One.
