Not all the lootable items and buffs inside will be waiting for you out in the open, however, and some will require you to complete puzzles before you can get your hands on them, like Sluice Gate. The Sluice Gate presents itself as a formidable challenge at the far west section of the sewers, and its entrance relies on you correctly adjusting various valves. Unlocking the Sluice Gate in\u00a0BG3: A Step-by-Step Guide We found a note saying the water and temperature valves had to be at optimal levels for the Sluice Gate to open during our\u00a0BG3\u00a0playthrough. After reading the note, we started messing around with the water and temperature valves to find the perfect combination. Related:\u00a0Baldur\u2019s Gate 3: How to solve the Faith-Leap trial in\u00a0BG3 There\u2019s a gauge near the valves, and the optimal levels are the green areas. During this process, we recommend using a single character. Select the water valve once and let the gauge rise. Select the temperature valve once and start off its gauge as well. Both gauges should reach the green zones at the same time, but this might take a few tries. Once both gauges hit their optimal levels simultaneously, the Sluice Gate\u2019s doors will open in\u00a0BG3. Inside, you\u2019ll find enemies waiting for you, and progressing through the door will also lead you to recruiting Minsc. Exploring new landmarks and completing puzzles make up the more relaxed part of\u00a0BG3\u00a0as following storylines could lead you to make crucial decisions like deciding whether you\u00a0should kill Yurgir or save him from his contract. With\u00a0rescue\u00a0missions also waiting for you, it\u2019s also essential to pick up all resources that might have a future use to ensure you can sustain your party in the long run.","apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/baldur_s-gate-3.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/935598"}],"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\/1802"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=935598"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/935598\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":935629,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/935598\/revisions\/935629"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/935602"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=935598"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=935598"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=935598"},{"taxonomy":"invoiceable_action","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/invoiceable_action?post=935598"},{"taxonomy":"internal-label","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/internal-label?post=935598"},{"taxonomy":"article_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_type?post=935598"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=935598"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
