Where to find Infernal Iron in Baldur’s Gate 3?

There are five locations where you can find Infernal Iron in Baldur’s Gate 3:

• Blighted Village
• Gauntlet of Shar Dungeon
• Shattered Sanctum
• Underdark Grymforge
• Zhentarim Hideout

Blighted Village

The Blighted Village will probably be the first time you find Infernal Iron. This place is located in the basement of the house on the north side of the settlement. Head over to the basement and grab the metal from the chest, but be careful as the chest explodes.

Gauntlet of Shar Dungeon

Gauntlet of Shar Dungeon is the second place where you can find Infernal Iron in Baldur’s Gate 3. The depth of the dungeon is protected by Balthazar, a necromancer, and once you unlock the chest, you get the rare metal.

Shattered Sanctum

Shattered Sanctum is located in the Goblin Camp. Head over to the north side to find Dror Ragzlin, open the door behind him, and get all the loot including Infernal Iron.

Underdark Grymforge

Head over to the Underdark Grymforge area to start Stonemason Kith’s quest. You can reach this location by going to the Decrepit Village and taking the boats from there. Once you complete all the challenges given, you’ll earn a ton of rewards including Infernal Iron.

Zhentarim Hideout

Zhentarim Hideout is the fifth location in the game where you can find Infernal Iron. You can reach here by completing the “Find the Missing Shipment” quest, and once you’re inside, head north until you come across a couple of locked doors along with guards and some wolves. Once you defeat them, unlock the door on the extreme right, and open the chest on the right to get the rare metal.

How to use Infernal Iron in Baldur’s Gate 3?

To use Infernal Iron in Baldur’s Gate 3, you’ll need to start Karlach’s quest, The Hellion’s Heart. This metal is used to repair the overheating Infernal engine inside her body and for that, you need to:

1. Head over to Emerald Grove.
2. Talk to Dammon, a Tiefling blacksmith.
3. Give the Infernal Iron to Dammon so that he can repair Karlach’s Infernal engine.

This temporarily fixes her problem and you’ll come across Dammon again at Baldur’s Gate. Remember, Karlach needs to be in your party otherwise you won’t be able to apply the temporary fix to her engine.

So, there you have it — that’s everything you need to know about finding Infernal Iron in the game. For more about Baldur’s Gate 3, be sure to check our other content and guides:
