Half-ogres Near Beregost is a side quest which can be started in the Jovial Juggler. In "classic" Baldur's Gate this quest is commonly referred to as Bjornin's Half-Ogres.
Walkthrough[]
- Talk to Bjornin; he will tell you about the half-ogres in the Fisherman's Lake area. If you can't find Bjornin in the main room of the Jovial Juggler, try the kitchen area in the back (he's a roamer).
- Travel to the Fisherman's Lake area and you should find four half-ogres north of the large lake. (
3025.425)- In the original game, you are attacked upon arriving from the north by way of the Red Canyons. This no longer works in the enhanced edition, since the World Map is altered and you enter the map more to the east of the half-ogres location.
- After you have slain all four of the creatures, return to Beregost and notify Bjornin of the half-ogres demise to collect your reward.

Bugs[]
- In
Baldur's Gate (1998)
This icon indicates content from the original Baldur's Gate campaign., this quest is bugged. The side-quest can be started and the half-ogres do appear in the area and can be killed, but it can't be completed, because the mechanic which allows Bjornin to see that the ogres have been killed is broken.- Alternatively, it may have never been bugged, it may simply be time-sensitive, with a fairly short timer, or it may have a conflict with one of the many quests urging you to make haste for Nashkel. Try completing this quest before going to Nashkel.
- This bug is fixed in
Baldur's Gate:
Enhanced Edition (2012)
This icon indicates content from the Baldur's Gate: Enhanced Edition campaign..
- When you encounter the half-ogres in the game, they will be called "Half Ogres."
