Baldur's Gate 3 offers a vast array of armaments to customize your character. Among these, the Hammer of the Just stands out as a unique weapon exclusive to Act 3, the game's final chapter. This hammer packs a punch with combat bonuses, including the ability to deal Radiant Damage to foes and extra harm to Fiends and Undead. Here's a guide on where to find this powerful weapon and how to obtain it without upsetting the gods.

Unraveling the Mystery at Stormshore Tabernacle

The Stormshore Tabernacle, located east of the Basilisk Gate fast travel point, serves as a shrine for offerings to Faerun's deities. This sacred place offers temporary buffs in exchange for gold given to the gods. Vicar Humbletoes oversees the tabernacle and trades various items.

Penetrating the Tabernacle's Depths

To access the basement, locate the Ornate Wooden Hatch at coordinates (X:103, Y-30). Utilize stealth to sneak past or engage Vicar Humbletoes in conversation to create a distraction, allowing you to pick the lock and descend into the hidden area.

Traverse the basement cautiously as it is laden with traps. Proceed down the corridor, disarming pressure plates and vents to avoid the Holy Fire damage they trigger. Upon reaching the end of the hall, enter the chamber housing multiple chests.

Securing the Hammer Safely

Among the chests lies the coveted Hammer of the Just, specifically in the first small chest to the right labeled Offerings to Tyr. Beware: pilfering from any chest invokes the Castigated by Divinity curse upon the perpetrator. This curse leads to the character's demise upon their next fall, spawning a formidable opponent to challenge the party. To elude this fate, obliterate the chests using bludgeoning weapons, collect the loot, and evade divine detection of your thievery.
