Baldur's Gate II: Shadows of Amn Hints

How can the pirate lord help me?

  • 1 of 6: You need to help the courtesan first.
  • 2 of 6: Once you help her, you will meet a ship captain.
  • 3 of 6: You can now get into the pirate lord's house by telling the guard that the captain sent you.
  • 4 of 6: Getting past the pirate lord is harder, if you don't have Yoshimo.  You have to convince the pirate lord you're insane, while avoiding the subject of Imoen entirely (trust me).
  • 5 of 6: This is easiest to do if you have Minsc in the party.  Just say something along the lines of "I'm obviously deranged, look who I travel with, Minsc, meet the Pirate Lord", and you'll get 38,000 XP.
  • 6 of 6: Otherwise, just persist acting as insane as possible from the start.
