Baldur's Gate II: Shadows of Amn Hints
How do I help the undergnomes?
1 of 10: The entrance to the undergnome encampment is in the northwestern area.
2 of 10: When you enter, one of them will come up to you and demand that you speak with their leader.
3 of 10: Go and talk to him. The leader is in the lower-right side building.
4 of 10: He will implore you to defeat a beast that has been released in the mining area.
5 of 10: Go to that area, and a mage will be there waiting for you. He will open the door.
6 of 10: Inside, cast Protection from Evil 10 Foot Radius, or summon the moondog if you're a ranger!
7 of 10: Click on the pit twice and a balor will be summoned.
8 of 10: If you didn't cast Protection from Evil, you're in trouble, because the only way to beat him is to become the slayer, and bash on him with powerful offensive spells.
9 of 10: Once you beat him, use the earthquake spell to collapse the tunnel.
10 of 10: Go back to the gnome leader and he will give you a sunstone, which you can use to enter the dark cave to the east.
