Chests have a tendency to stay locked until the end of time in Baldur’s Gate 3, but who’s to say that it should stay that way until the end? Opening a chest without angering an entire community is a skill, a skill that not everyone possesses. Unless you have high dexterity that is.
Since Kagha isn’t really a character that you would feel any remorse for, stealing from her is a nonissue. The only problem is that the key to her possessions are nowhere to be found. So before you lose your patience and try to wipe out a basement filled with tree lovers for some loot, read the rest of the guide!
Kagha’s Chest Unlock Guide
You’ll be able to find Kagha’s Chest behind the Servant’s Quarters.
Opening Kagha’s chest is as easy as stealing the keys from the person who owns it. After you’re done suffering through her dialogue (if you’re playing as a non-Druid) go back to the Emerald Grove and sneak up behind her. Do make sure that you have Shadowheart with you. You will need her Guidance cantrip to further guarantee success.
Guidance is a Divination cantrip that you can bestow upon an ally. It adds a +1d4 bonus to your ability checks. Make sure that you’re using a character that has a good Sleight of Hand ability in order to avoid causing too much drama in the grove. That means good Dexterity, as a Rogue would usually have.
Once you’ve granted Divination to the correct character, walk up behind Kagha and take the item that’s labeled “Kagha’s Key.” Like taking candy from a baby! Go back to her chest in the Servant’s Quarters to get an Onyx and a note that exposes her treachery.
That’s how you can open Kagha’s Chest in Baldur’s Gate 3. You can always smash the chest instead like how someone playing a barbarian race would. But partaking in a small bit of larceny is always looked upon, especially when you succeed! We’re talking about theft in-game by the way.
