Baldur's Gate 3 is vast in scope and size, making it impossible to experience everything the game has to offer in a single playthrough. No one would blame you for overlooking rare items, given that they can be locked behind specific decisions.

Play a small game with Djinn and get an extremely useful item in Baldur's Gate --the Band of the Mystic Scoundrel.

One noteworthy item in Baldur's Gate 3 is the Craterflesh Gloves, exclusively available for purchase from an elusive merchant known as the Echo of Abazigal. This merchant only becomes accessible if you assume the role of the Unholy Assassin through the Murder Tribunal in Act 3.

How To Get Into The Murder Tribunal

To gain access to the Murder Tribunal, you must investigate a series of murders. During your investigation, you'll encounter a potential murder victim, Cora Highberry, accompanied by Dolor, a dwarf clad in red armor. Engage in battle with Dolor, who will then attempt to evade you.

Subsequently, proceed to the Facemaker's Boutique, where you'll find the dwarf alongside the latest murder victim, Figaro Pennyworth. After defeating Dolor, loot the corpse to obtain the Hand Bag and read the Torn and Bloody Page. This will unveil the password required to enter the Murder Tribunal.

Locate the tribunal in Candulhallow's Tombstones, northeast of the Elfsong Taverns. Once inside the building, inspect the wall for a portrait; move it to expose a switch that shifts a cupboard, revealing the entrance to the Murder Tribunal. Interact with the door and select the very first dialogue option to input the password and gain access to the Murder Tribunal.

How To Become An Unholy Assassin

The Which Guards don't just let anyone gain entry to the Murder Tribunal. You must present the Hand Bag as evidence of your involvement in a murder. After that, choose the first dialogue option to open the doors to the Murder Tribunal.

Once inside, you'll encounter the legendary Bhaalspawn, Sarevok Anchev. To become the Unholy Assassin, you must agree to be judged by Sarevok. This action will trigger the appearance of an NPC specter, possibly one previously killed by your party. Choose the option that allows you to deceive the Murder Tribunal to pass the judgment.

Return to the Murder Tribunal, and you will find the previously inaccessible Echo of Abazigal merchant.

How To Get Craterflesh Gloves

Engage in a conversation with Echo of Abazigal to know more about his backstory. After that, trade with him and you will discover a diverse array of items in his inventory. Among them, you'll find the Craterflesh Gloves that you are seeking. These gloves stand out as a rare pair, endowed with a unique perk known as Craterous Wounds. This special perk inflicts 1 to 6 force damage when a critical hit is achieved, giving players an edge in combat.

Eliminating the Echo of Abazigal merchant won't yield any items from his inventory, meaning that the only way to acquire the Craterflesh Gloves is to purchase them via trade.
