Baldur’s Gate 3’s narrative is full of choices, many of which can affect the story and outcomes. After deciding to take my chances in theUnderdark rather than the mountain, I faced a tough choice between two Myconid Sovereigns, which left me wondering whether I should help Glut start his own Circle by killing Spaw, or upholding my oath with Sovereign Spaw.
Should you Kill Spaw or Glut in Baldur’s Gate 3?
You will gain access to the cache behind the Guardian Gate regardless of which option you choose, and both Spaw and Glut carry the same items on their bodies. The only real difference comes in the narrative and by helping Glut, who gives you the Winter’s Clutches gloves. Let’s look deeper at what the choice between Spaw and Glut does in Baldur’s Gate 3.
