Found in the Grand Mausoleum, the Gauntlet of Shar requires you and your party to complete three different trials to reach the end of the dungeon. Since Shadowheart is the most loyal follower of Shar, the deity of darkness, and since every choice has much greater consequences in the D&D universe, you may be wondering if it's in your best interest to bring Shadowheart along and let her do the trials.

And if you’ve spent hours wooing the loyal cleric, you might want to proceed with her questline with caution. Plus, the Sharran herself may want to further explore the Gauntlet of Shar in BG3. So if you’re wondering whether or not to take her into the gauntlet and have her complete those trials, here’s everything you need to know.

Yes, we recommend taking Shadowheart to Gauntlet of Shar and letting her do the trials in BG3. There are no direct consequences to this choice; on the other hand, you can easily complete those trials.

Being the loyal Sharran herself, she knows her way through all three trials in the game. You can quickly collect those Umbral Gems if you let Shadowheart take the reins in the Gauntlet of Shar. Players can use her Radiant Spells as needed while completing the trials in the game.
