Baldur’s Gate 3: How to find Mol in BG3

Take a tour around the town.

Baldur’s Gate 3 has its fair share of non-player characters (NPCs), some of which have vital quests and information that can speed up your adventures. Mol is one of the NPCs that fit this description, and you’ll need to find her to complete the “Investigate the Beach” quest.

Even if you find Mol by luck, she may not accept your presence: You’ll first need to help around Emerald Grove. Nonetheless, players can locate Mol in Act 1 during the Investigate the Beach quest and in Act 3 after Moonrise Towers.

Here’s how to find Mol in Baldur’s Gate 3.

How to Find Mol to complete the Investigate the Beach quest in Baldur’s Gate 3

Before finding Mol in BG3, you should prioritize completing tasks that allow you to get on her good side. Saving Arabella, for example, makes Mol friendly toward players. If you believe you should be on good terms with Mol, here’s how to find her.

  1. Head northeast from Emerald Grove.
  2. You’ll be assigned a quest called “Investigate the Beach” after hearing a singing voice.
  3. This quest will lead you to Mirkon, and disrupting his song will trigger four harpies to appear.
  4. Slay the harpies and talk to Mirkon to learn Doni’s location.
  5. Return to Emerald Grove and speak to Doni.
  6. Choose “Doni, isn’t it? I want to see the Dragon’s Lair” option.
  7. Head down the hatch that Doni opens, and Mol will appear on your minimap as a waypoint while the Investigate the Beach quest is still active.

Interacting with Mol for the first time will start the Steal the Sacred Idol Act One quest.

Progressing the Find Mol quest in Moonrise Towers

Unfortunately, Mol is not actually in Moonrise Towers. You won’t find her again until Act 3. However, to progress the quest, you need to locate the eyepatch, which is on a table in the Necrotic Library at the coordinates X: 702, Y:-109.

By locating the eyepatch, you will learn that she has escaped.

How to find Mol in Act 3 in BG3

During our BG3 playthrough, we ran into Mol again in Act Three. She was captured and brought to Moonrise Towers shortly after a confrontation at the Last Light Inn. After that, you can locate Mol in the Moonrise Towers’ Guildhall, at X:-11 Y:751.

Upon meeting Mol for the second time in BG3, you can break her out of the prison in Moonrise. Even if you choose not to help her, Mol will escape on her own, and she can be spotted selling goods in Guildhall, Lower City, after her prison break.
