The Illithid rod is an item that serves as a key to open a specific locked door in the Watcher's Keep Illithid Encampment this dungeon area.
Gameplay[]
The rod has been split into two parts.
One piece is within a container (ref: PLOT04H.itm).
The other is in possession of one of the Ulitharid creatures dwelling in this area, and probably must be taken by force (ref: PLOT04G.itm).
When both pieces are found and in possession of the party, the game script automatically assembles the two pieces into the final Illithid Rod. See the gallery screenshot below.
A text displays on the player's combat log:
- You lock the two halves of the rod together. The illithid rod can now be used to open one of the doors in the area.
Description of a rod piece[]
| “ | This is half of a bizarre, rodlike illithid key. The key must open a lock that guards something valuable if the mind flayers have gone so far as to split the key into two parts. | ” |
Description of the assembled rod[]
| “ | This an illithid rod created by joining the rod halves that you found together. You must now find the door that this opens. | ” |
Gallery[]
Both pieces of the rod are now possessed, and the Illithid Rod is reformed. Each party member is awarded an experience point boost.
