Who said that the most interesting tidbits are only found in dialogues? Contrary to appearances, in Baldur’s Gate 3, you're not limited to powerful weapons that drop from bosses or after completing a companion's storyline. In Faerun, there is no lack of decent weapons, effectively hidden from the eyes of ordinary mortals - after all, to get the best of them, you have to get your hands dirty... or break a few things.

Does your character lack some strength? A certain weapon can fix this. It's enough if you show what you can already do. Watch out for splinters!

How to get the Club of Hill Giant Strength?

Maybe let's start with what kind of weapon we are dealing with? Club of Hill Giant Strength is an item of an unusual type. At first glance, it may not seem particularly remarkable—it is green and doesn't deal big damage. So what makes it exceptional? The strength of the character wielding the club increases up to 19 points.

That's a nice little bonus, especially for characters who rely on spells and tricks rather than physical attacks. Do you guys need to make a strength throw, but your arms are like sticks? The club will get the job done, and moreover, it's not so hard to get.

The chance to acquire the giant's weapon will appear in Act One, during the exploration of the Underdark. At the top of the Arcane Tower, you'll find a tiny stool that actually holds great power: sitting on it will give your character the effect of Hill Giant Strength, increasing stamina up to 23 points. Unfortunately, for the purposes of the guide, we have to destroy this piece of furniture.

In return, we will get the club! Sure, 19 might not sound as good as 23, but it's definitely easier to carry a club than a stool, right? To make you feel better, we can tell you that you'll probably come across a replica of the stool on the beach near Rivington - although it won't have any magical effects.
