Baldur's Gate II: Shadows of Amn Hints

How do I help Tiris?

  • 1 of 10: This will only happen if you've done the Skinner Murders quest in Athkatla.
  • 2 of 10: After you meet Jenia, go to Tiris' house in the northern part of town.
  • 3 of 10: Talk to Tiris to get some background.
  • 4 of 10: After you've agreed to help him, go out the west gate.  You'll meet a "hunter" there who says he's fighting the "Skin Dancer" you're after.
  • 5 of 10: Follow him to where he goes, and you'll meet Raissa, who tells you to kill Rajiek, who is on the ground.
  • 6 of 10: Instead, talk to "Rajiek" and continue until "Raissa" and Darsidian Moor change into Skin Dancers and attack you.
  • 7 of 10: Once they're dead, the real Raissa will get up.
  • 8 of 10: She'll ask you to use a restoration on her.
  • 9 of 10: Either have a priest cast it one her, or get a scroll and use it on her to gain 30,000 XP.
  • 10 of 10: Go back to Tiris' parents to get +1 rep.
