In Baldur’s Gate 3, Halsin is a Druid and a potential party member, but you must locate him in the game world before he can join your team. This guide will provide all the necessary details on how to find Halsin in Baldur’s Gate 3.

The game is a massive RPG filled with numerous dungeons, a wealth of loot, and various characters. In true RPG style, players can form a party of Companions, including Halsin, to confront formidable foes.

Baldur’s Gate 3 has 10 unique Companion characters that fans can recruit over the course of their adventure, each with unique personalities and classes to use in battle.

One of those potential companions is Halsin the Druid, who grabbed many fans’ attention thanks to a now infamous romance scene involving his bear form. Should players want to find and recruit Halsin for themselves, here’s how they can do so.

Where to find Halsin in Baldur’s Gate 3

Finding Halsin in Baldur’s Gate 3 can take a bit of time, as it can be a bit unclear where he actually is. You’ll likely hear about Halsin for the first time in the Druid Grove while talking to Nettie as she will inform you that he has gone on an expedition to the Goblin Camp.

From here, players will want to head towards the Goblin Camp, west of the Druid Grove and past the Blighted Village. While exploring the Goblin Camp, players will notice two large doors which lead to the Shattered Sanctum, where Halsin is located.

When exploring the Shattered Sanctum, you will come across Priestess Gut in the Central Throne room. From here, turn northeast and look for a wooden bridge heading to the right. Following the bridge, players should see three goblins and a rat in front of a door.

As a Druid, Halsin first appears as a bear locked in a cage deep within the Shattered Sanctum.

This door leads to the Worg Pens. Head down the stairs to the right and you should see a group of goblins throwing rocks at a caged bear. This bear is Halsin.

How you free Halsin from his predicament is up to you and the skillset you currently have, but the most straightforward way is through combat. Once you enter combat, Halsin will break out of his cage and help you fight the goblins — though this will make the entire Goblin Camp hostile if they were not already.

It is important to remember though that the hostile Goblin Camp will be difficult to clear, even with the help of Halsin.

How to recruit Halsin in Baldur’s Gate 3

Recruiting Halsin is fairly straightforward. Once you have rescued him from the Shattered Sanctum, Halsin will want to defend Emerald Grove. This involves defeating the three enemy leaders within the sanctum: Dror Gagzlin, Minthara, and Priestess Gut.
