How to get Loviatar’s Blessing from Abdirak

Baldur’s Gate 3 players who wish to obtain Loviatar’s Blessing must let Abdirak torture them at least three times.

When you first meet Abdirak, he immediately lets you know that he is a servant of the Goddess of Pain Loviatar. He will quickly offer to hit you with a sledgehammer so you can embrace your pain, and if you want the blessing, you must accept.

More specifically, you must pass Intimidation and Performance checks three times while he hits you to convince him that you’re having a good time. Whether that’s the case or not, well, it doesn’t matter. Once you manage to pass these tests, you will be blessed with Loviatar’s Blessing.

Here are some other tips to keep in mind when getting the blessing:

Do not choose a Constitution saving throw, as this will result in failure.
If you’re about to die, he’ll let you heal yourself before hitting you again.
Abdirak is equipped with a unique mace capable of dealing necrotic damage. You can obtain this weapon by stealing it or killing Abdirak.
