Baldur’s Gate 3 has many puzzles that you might encounter during your travels. One of these is in the Gauntlet of Shar. While not a trial in and of itself, it does lead to a unique reward. Our guide discusses the Baldur’s Gate 3 Silent Library puzzle, as well as the Spear of Night and Dark Justiciar Helmet rewards.
How to Solve the Silent Library Puzzle in Baldur’s Gate 3
The Baldur’s Gate 3 Silent Library puzzle is in the lower-left section of the Gauntlet of Shar. The closest room is the Faith-Leap Trial, which requires you to jump despite barely seeing the outlines of ledges. As for the Silent Library itself, you’ll notice a shimmering aura at the entrance. Once you go inside, you’ll realize that a magic barrier automatically applies the silence status to your entire party.
How to Defeat the Enemies in the Silent Library
The Baldur’s Gate 3 Silent Library is full of traps. Thankfully, the enemies have poor detection range. We began by having the party in sneak mode before ungrouping so we can reposition everyone. We had Astarion disarm a couple of nearby traps before getting ready to strike a target in close range. Since the others were still hiding, we managed to move them closer to other targets. For instance, our main character, a Monk, as well as Karlach, approached the Umbral Tremor and other Justiciar undead.
Try to reposition your squad so you can plan your moves accordingly.
What Can Kill the Nightsong
Once all the hostiles are down, make sure you disarm the remaining traps. Once that’s done, head back to the Faith-Leap Trial and take on the trial.
