In Baldur's Gate 3, Soul Coins are a unique item created from Infernal Iron that are used as a currency in the Nine Hells. Due to this, they are often quite rare to come across in the world of Faerun.

Despite this, there are several Soul Coins that can be acquired in each act of the story in Baldur's Gate 3. Soul Coins can then be used to fuel Karlach's Infernal Engine, granting her a temporary buff until the next Long Rest. For this reason, knowing all Soul Coin locations will enable you to pick them all up along the way and accumulate a stash to power up Karlach before important fights.

In Baldur's Gate 3, Soul Coins can be an unexpectedly valuable item for your playthrough. This is because you can feed them to Karlach's Infernal Engine, which will enable her with the following buff until her next Long Rest taken:

Infernal Fury

  • Weapon and unarmed attacks deal an additional + 1d4 Fire damage when Raging or when Hit Points drop below 25%.

As every little bit of damage goes a long way in Baldur's Gate 3, this buff is extremely valuable - especially when it stacks with her Reckless Attacks, Enraged Throws, and other various Barbarian abilities that either grant her Advantage on her attacks, or add extra damage. For this reason, keeping a collection of Soul Coins aside for your most threatening encounters can give you a helpful buff to claim victory and progress forward.
