Baldur's Gate II: Shadows of Amn Hints
The Beholder City
1 of 7: This is probably the simplest of the quests.
2 of 7: The beholder you need to kill is in the first room (The Elder Orb).
3 of 7: Take the eye off his body, and get the blade of the equalizer.
4 of 7: You might want to explore the rest of the city too.
5 of 7: There's a bunch of drow to the north.
6 of 7: Near the drow, there's a couple nooks of treasure. Look in them all, to find a nice sling +4 and a greenstone amulet (a must against the illithids).
7 of 7: There's nothing much else here, so you can leave now if you have the eye.
