Q: What are Arcane Turrets and why are they challenging in the Arcane Tower?

A: Arcane Turrets are constructs in the Arcane Tower that can revive themselves after being defeated and can attack multiple times in one turn. They can be a hindrance as players explore the Arcane Tower in Baldur's Gate 3.

Q: How can I disable or bypass the Arcane Turrets when approaching the Arcane Tower?

A: When you encounter the first two Arcane Turrets, you can either knock them out, sneak past, or make a run for it. If you choose to knock them out, depleting their HP twice will temporarily disable them, making it easier to proceed.

Q: How can I permanently turn off the Arcane Turrets?

A: Head to the basement of the Arcane Tower. If locked out, use a side pipe in a gaseous form or pick the lock. Inside, power a central machine using a Sussur Bloom found nearby. This action disables the Arcane Turrets and activates a lift.
