One Baldur’s Gate 3 player known as elsonwarcraft on Reddit discovered a secret passageway in Water Queen’s House after 400 hours of playthrough. As seen in the mini-map, this hidden entrance is found in the southwest of the temple. Inside the cave, there are water priestesses that go aggro if players don’t leave them alone.

Water Queen’s House is a Location Baldur’s Gate 3 Players Might Miss in the Final Act

As players journey through the world of Faeun, they will eventually make their way to Water Queen’s House, a temple where players find a quest about the vehicle that takes them to the Iron Throne dungeon, one of the missable locations in Baldur’s Gate 3‘s third act. Compared to other destinations on the map, Water Queen’s House, located next to the beach, features limited content to enjoy. However, players would be well advised to visit that temple, as there might be some worthwhile loot.


Besides Water Queen’s Home, players will visit a number of locations during the final act of Baldur’s Gate 3, such as Rivington and Lower City Sewers, to take on unique quests and progress through the game’s story. The events in the third arc will lead to branching storylines, some of which have minimal interaction with the main plot. One thing to note is that these storylines can be missed if players don’t talk to the right NPC and activate the necessary quest.
