    Since Gortash is one of the main antagonists of Baldur’s Gate 3, making a deal and siding with him can impact your gameplay storyline drastically. As all the choices have an outcome, accepting his proposal can be the worst or the best decision of your playthrough. So, if you are confused about whether you should ally with Gortash in Baldur’s Gate 3 or not, it’s valid as it’s quite a tough choice to make.

    However, accepting his proposal is simply dealing with lesser evil compared to the shapeshifter Orin, the Red. That said, there are also a few consequences for allying with Gortash in BG3. Regardless of these outcomes, we recommend saving scumming to experience both the consequences. We suggest knowing where to find the Gortash and his location beforehand. So, check out our guide to find out if you should ally with Gortash or not.

    Should You Ally With Gortash in Baldur’s Gate 3?

    Yes, you should ally with Gortash in BG3 if you want to travel across the city without being harmed. If you take the deal, no harm will come to you from him or his men. This will allow you to complete any remaining side quests without any trouble. In that case, you can find Orin, and defeat her in a one-on-one duel if you are playing as the Dark Urge. However, there are a few consequences for making an alliance with Gortash in Baldur’s Gate 3. You will gain major disapproval from Karlach.

    In addition, you will also be locked out from certain side-quests due to this decision. This includes saving the people stuck in the underwater prison by Gortash. One of these imprisoned people also includes Wyll’s father, Duke Ravengard. Luckily, you can also refuse to ally with Gortash or even betray him. As soon as you side with Gortash in BG3, he will want you to kill Orin and take her Netherstone. After having this Netherstone, you can trigger a fight at the Wyrm’s Rock Fortress and betray him.

    Note that refusing an alliance with Gortash doesn’t have any major consequences. Rather than defeating Orin, you will have to beat Gortash, instead. Once you kill him, you must take his Netherstone and head to the Temple of Bhall. But we recommend not fighting him when you meet him for the first time in his chambers. That’s because you will be surrounded by the Steel Watch enemies during the coronation. So, it’s better to wait and disable the Steel Watch Foundry.

    Ultimately, it all depends on your playstyle, experiences, and preferred playthrough. So, we leave the rest of the decision to you.

    That’s all about if you should ally with Gortash in Baldur’s Gate 3.
