WHY PLAYERS GET STUCK
The Emissary is a DLC entry point that appears in hub towns separately from the main campaign. New players often wonder whether they should enter FG immediately and what to check before choosing a Witch God cult.
WALKTHROUGH
- 1Finish the Act 1 questline and return to a hub
- ▸The Forgotten Gods entry route opens after the Act 1 questline.
- ▸Normally, look for the Emissary in Devil's Crossing. Previously leveled characters may also see him in Homestead, Fort Ikon, Coven's Refuge, or Sewer Hideout.
- ▸If he is missing, confirm Forgotten Gods is installed and that Act 1 progression is far enough.
- 2Accept the Emissary's summons
- ▸Talk to the Emissary and choose the dialogue option that sends you toward Forgotten Gods.
- ▸If A Stranger Beckons is active, this conversation advances you into The Emissary quest proper.
- ▸Accepting the route does not brick the character if you decide to continue the main campaign first.
- 3Enter the Conclave of the Three through the portal
- ▸Use the portal opened by the Emissary to reach the Conclave of the Three in the Korvan Basin.
- ▸After arriving, speak to the Emissary again inside the Conclave.
- ▸That second conversation completes The Emissary and leads into The Eldritch Trials.
- 4Clear the central trial before the cult choice
- ▸After The Emissary, the Emissary offers The Eldritch Trials in the Conclave of the Three.
- ▸Start the trial by speaking with Kanatha, Mistress of the Sentinels, in the center of the hub. It is a short wave fight.
- ▸When the trial is over, report back to the Emissary and proceed to Loyalty to the Three.
- ▸After this, Loyalty to the Three begins and leads to the Bysmiel / Dreeg / Solael choice.
- 5Choose whether to pledge to Bysmiel, Dreeg, or Solael
- ▸In Loyalty to the Three, speak with Byscilla, Draellus, and Sagon, then pledge to one Witch God cult.
- ▸The choice changes the immediate questline, but all three Witch God cult vendors remain available.
- ▸If unsure, pet builds usually check Bysmiel first, poison/acid builds Dreeg, and fire/chaos builds Solael.
STILL LOST?
If lost, return to Devil's Crossing, speak to the Emissary, and use his portal. After reaching the Conclave of the Three, speak to the Emissary again in the same hub. The Witch God cult choice comes after The Emissary, through The Eldritch Trials.
The Emissary itself is not missable; it is the Forgotten Gods entry quest. The Bysmiel / Dreeg / Solael pledge happens later in Loyalty to the Three, so this entry treats it as an upcoming-choice warning.
