Pandirna is a Tiefling NPC that players will encounter in Baldur’s Gate 3. As you know, the game is based on numerous choices that you make and if you are looking for the Drow Poison, you will have to make an important one here. Pandirna is guarding locked crates at the Emerald Grove however, her legs are paralyzed and she can’t move around. Since the wrong choice can have unwanted consequences you might want to know first which choice gives you the best result. In this BG3 guide, we will show you whether you should help and heal Pandirna or not.
Should You Help Pandirna in Baldur’s Gate 3?
After taking a potion that should have made her stronger, Pandirna is now paralyzed and cannot use her legs. However, there are some annoying guards close to where you will be and she will end up shouting for them if you make the wrong choice. Although there is no major difference whether you help Pandirna or not, making the correct choice will help you loot the crates in Baldur’s Gate 3. It is better to help Pandirna in BG3 since it will allow you to easily get the Cabinet Key from the crates and open the Alchemist’s Cabinet. Here are the options that you will get once you interact with Pandirna in BG3:
- I’m just looking around.
- [Insight] Study her face and try to read her emotions.
- [Persuasion] Don’t worry. I’m here to help.
- [Deception] I’m afraid I can’t. I’ve been placed in charge of this area.
- [Intimidation] Hush, girl. Another word and I’ll snap your neck.
- Attack her.
If you select “I’m just looking around” or “Attack her,” she will eventually scream for the guards and you will have more problems on your hand. While using the Intimidation dialogue option, she won’t scream for the guards. However, the conversation will end and you won’t get the chance to loot the crates. The best way to loot the crates behind Pandirna is to select the Deception dialogue option in Baldur’s Gate 3. Although Insight and Persuasion will work as well, we found Deception to work splendidly. You should soon get the Drow Poison along with some other contents if all goes well.
How to Heal Pandirna in BG3
If you want to help and heal Pandirna in BG3, you will need to use the Lesser Restoration spell. Shadowheart is the party member that is best for this task so you should try getting her to help. Do remember that simply healing Pandirna won’t get you into those crates. You will have to make a move while she is not looking towards the crates.
