Larian Studios Forums Baldur's Gate III Baldur's Gate III - Technical & Gameplay Problems PS5 - Gauntlet of Shar - Rats issue

I'm stopping playing until this bug is fixed. I spent 5 hours, and got 3 different cutscenes, but no fight.

Tried killing rats, not killing rats, hit without lethal damage... even tried THROWING these damn rats into this hole!
When I missed the rat, its attitude towards me decreased, but this did not help either.
I’m thinking of collecting these rats and making a big bunch of them, screen them and send larian to a bug report (I already sent one).

Its not working too (I guess PC users have this bug too, but also have workaround):



I know why it happends and why not still fixed: release on PS5 release was later, fixes go through a bunch of development and testing stages.
If only there was a debug console through which you could simply advance the quest further.

having this issue myself on PS5.

My process left the rat pact open -- I didn't make one, but I didn't rule it out. I encountered them early in the Gauntlet of Shar, and killed 3 out of the 4 that try to ambush you with some alchemists fire. I just left after speaking with the lone survivor so I didn't make it worse, but I left the relationship relatively open.

But before I got to Yurgir and even knew I needed to kill the Rat Man Dark Justiciar, I ran into the broken effigy at the feet of the Shar statue.

I had to kill a rat at the top of the cragged rock because it was blocking my path to get to the bottom, and when I went down the craggy rock to get to the skull-salted base, my avatar PC looked around like something shifty was happening, but ultimately no cut-scene triggered. No flood of sleep-rats, nothing. I didn't know about the Yurgir contract yet though, so I figured I just wasn't supposed to know what this area does yet, and moved on -- like maybe it's a story point I just haven't gotten to yet, so I moved on and found Yurgir.

He kept tanking my party (partly because I skipped the grymforge because I couldn't figure out how to trigger the magma and Grym, and thus have no adamantine armor or weapons) so I looked online for some tips and found the rat guy plotline.

I can't get past Yurgir in a fight, so I need to get past him in another way, and that other way isn't triggering. I don't want to scale down my difficulty, so now i'm just stuck waiting for an update.

After you kill the talking rat and the fight "ends", you need to attack one of the other rats standing around to start the real fight.

Just encountered the bug today. Yugir was already convinced to suicide, but rats threatened me...and then no fight at all.

We'd like to inform you that this is a known issue that is currently being investigated and reviewed by the our developers and should be fixed in an upcoming release.

Oh man… this just happened to me. I don’t even know about any of the stuff y’all are talking about that this bug makes harder… this is literally the first thing I ran in to when I entered the temple proper. I had a cut scene then nothing. It s eel of bug to me so I fell down a google hole that lead me here. I guess I’ll reload to before I killed the first rat and keep playing the rest of the gauntlet. Hope it’s patched before I need(?) these rats?
