I’d be lying if I said completing the entire faith leap trial inBaldur’s Gate 3’s Gauntlet of Shardidn’t take forever and an ungodly amount of save scumming. Navigating a hidden path in the darkness was definitely a frustrating experience that couldn’t be over soon enough.

By now, however, it’s no secret thatskipping the Gauntlet of Sharis possible. However, if you’re looking for that sweet extra XP orfarming Shadowheart’s approval in Act 2, going through all the content inside this temple can help.
Players in aReddit threaddiscussing the faith leap trial in Gauntlet of Shar pointed out that you could use the auto path feature to have your character walk according to the path to save time, rather than usingMisty Step, Fly, and other mobility spells.

But it goes without saying that this method doesn’t always work on everyone, as other players have mentioned. That said, in the comments, one user came up with a solution that involved using a relatively common item to complete this trial.
Theywrote: “I kept going back to reveal the pattern, threw bones on the floor, and jumped to the bones.” They went on to explain that they would “pick up all the bones” they could find in order to do so. Following this revelation, other players couldn’t help but be impressed.

“I trieddropping items, but throwing bones is a genius way to complete this. I’ll definitely do that next time,” commented one user.
