Acquiring the Ring of Elemental Infusion in Baldur's Gate 3

To obtain the Ring of Elemental Infusion in Baldur's Gate 3, your journey begins at the Githyanki Creche. Head to the Mountain Pass and follow the trail to the wooden elevator. You'll need to pass a Strength Check to activate the elevator, allowing your party to descend to Rosymorn Monastery.

From there, navigate to the basement of Rosymorn Monastery, located in the Creche. Climb the vines to reach the rooftop, then use a character with the Feather Fall Spell to safely drop to the basement. Proceed downstairs to access the Creche.

Upon reaching the Creche entrance, encounter a group of guards. Pass through by succeeding in an Intimidation or Persuasion Check, or engage in combat to defeat them. Inside, locate the Githyanki Creche's Infirmary room at coordinates X: 1321, Y: -824. Inside a small room to the left, find Gish Umr'a'ac, the Githyanki holding the Ring of Elemental Infusion.

Options for obtaining the item:

If your Tav isn't a Rogue or Ranger, Astarion can assist unless you've altered his Base Class. Pickpocketing is challenging due to other Gith present. You can ease the process by using Find Familiar for distraction or Darkness Spell for concealment, aiding in a successful pickpocket attempt.
