Summary
It really feels like no number of hours inBaldur’s Gate 3will be enough to uncover every mystery the game has to offer. Players have reported spending hundreds (or even thousands) exploring the various corners of Faerûn,only to stumble across a new item or hidden secret they’d previously overlooked in past playthroughs. Just under a year after its release, it’s clear that players still haven’t uncovered every possible secret in the game.
That said, there are some easily-missed features that are hiding in plain sight. As shared by Reddit userCyberpunk39,it took them 384 hours of playing before discovering that there are bushes ofRaspberriesscattered throughout the game. “You can pick fruit off them!” they commented, “Don’t know how I missed them for so long.” Though they may initially seem like part of the world’s decoration, these bushes are interactable and contain a varied number of raspberries for players to pick.
Raspberriesare a consumable item that can be used as part of a player’s camp supplies when taking a Long Rest, though they’re only worth one camp supply a piece (meaning players will need a minimum of 40 raspberries to get a full Long Rest). That said, they can also be eaten in battle and act a little bit like good berries. Each raspberry will restore 1d4 health, butthey don’t require an action or bonus action to consume.
10 Best Baldur’s Gate 3 Summons You May Have Not Known About
Baldur’s Gate 3 is loaded with summons that the party can call on for aid in battle, but a few especially helpful ones are very well hidden.
Raspberries Are An Easy Source Of Health In Act 1
They’re Not The Only Missed Consumable Good
For the most part, these raspberry bushes are scattered throughout the overworld in Act 1, giving players who want to take their time combing through everything in the first area ofBaldur’s Gate 3some alternatives to healing potions.Sincehealing potionsrequire specific (and not unlimited) resources to craftand can only be found to purchase through certain merchants, those taking their time through Act 1 are likely to need some additional goodies to help replenish their health.
There are plenty of other camp supplies scattered around Faerûn, so the raspberries won’t be necessary for players to add to their long rests, butthey can help in a pinch when a player is low on health and not in a place to go to bed for the day. Most of the other camp supplies can’t be consumed to regain health like raspberries can, making them particularly useful.
Baldur’s Gate 3: Everyone That Can Join The Camp
In Baldur’s Gate 3, 25 characters can join your Camp, allowing you to share meals, stories and moments with your companions throughout the story.
Raspberries also aren’t the only overlooked consumable players have stumbled upon hundreds of hours into gameplay. In the comments of Cyberpunk39’s post, another user pointed outthatthere’s honey hidden in some beehives. “There’s like two bee hives around the outskirts of the blighted village,” userFlipsktr230said, “I only found them on accident doing area searches.”
There’s really no shortage of discoveries to make, no matter how far a player feels like they’ve already delved intoBaldur’s Gate 3. Though raspberries seem like such a small piece of the larger world, utilizing this healing supplement can really change the game for a player – especially as they try toaccomplish everything possible in Act 1.
