Q: Where are the four Umbral Gems located in Baldur's Gate 3?

A: The four Umbral Gems are located in the following chambers within the Gauntlet of Shar: Soft-Step Trial chamber, Self-Same Trial chamber, Faith-Step Trial chamber, and Orthon's Lair. The first three chambers are on the west side of the Gauntlet, while Orthon's Lair is on the east side.

Q: How do I obtain the Umbral Gem from each chamber?

A: In the Soft-Step Trial chamber, you navigate a maze and find the gem on a statue. In the Self-Same Trial chamber, you combat clones of your party, with the last clone dropping a gem. In the Faith-Step Trial chamber, you traverse invisible platforms over a chasm to reach a statue holding the gem. In Orthon's Lair, you can either confront Yurgir the Orthon directly, negotiate with him, or complete a contract on his behalf to secure the gem.

Q: What do I do after collecting all the Umbral Gems?

A: After obtaining all four Umbral Gems, you should return to the center of the Gauntlet of Shar. Insert one gem into the device there to activate an elevator leading down. On the lower floor, there's another device where you can insert the remaining three gems to access the deeper parts of the temple.
