Where to find the Zentharim Goods Chest in Baldur’s Gate 3?
Before we look at the quest itself, you’re going to have to find it. To do this, you will have to go to the northern part of the map of the first act of Baldur’s Gate 3. There, you will have to face several groups of Gnolls in the surrounding area.

Be careful to have a few levels before going there, then go to the point indicated on the map above. Once you arrive there, you will find yourself in front of a cave with a group of humans cornered inside it.
Will then begin a fight against the group of Gnolls. The main problem is the leader of the gang, but the good news, This is because thanks to your larva, you will be able to turn it against its allies if you wish.. It’s up to you how you want to play it in terms of your lore.

To recover the chest, the first thing to do will be to successfully overcome the fight. One of the easy options if you want to easily recover the trunk, is to let the group of Gnolls overcome the humans. Otherwise, you can complete the work yourself.
If you want a slightly more peaceful outcome to all this, you can talk to the leader of the troop, a certain Rugan. Start by asking him his destination, then what he is carrying. Then tell him that he is a Zentharim and that he certainly does not sell trinkets.
There, save because you will have a dice roll. Indeed, you will have to succeed in persuading him to sell the cargo to make a profit.. If the roll succeeds, Rugan will then let you take the crate, but he will specifically ask you not to open it!

Should I open the cargo box?
Obviously, when we are asked not to open it, we only want to do so. However, that would be a very bad idea! You can absolutely crochet it to get what’s inside, including a mysterious metal vial.
You might even want to look at what’s going on inside it. In this case, you will free a Spectator which is a fairly tough enemy given the level you will probably have at that point in your game. If you manage to kill him, you gain a little experience, but it’s not worth it!

Return the goods to the Zentharim
No, instead you will have to go to the Zentharim hideout. To do this, head east. When you arrive in a burning village, you are in the right place. In addition to the quests available there, go to the barn to the northeast.
Once inside, you will have a Zentharim guard who asks you for a password. If you talked to Ragan, he must have given it to you. If it’s not the case, you will have to be inventive and use, for example, Thought Detection.

Once you have access to the cache, go there. Once there, if you have spared Rugan, the latter is captured by Zarys who demands his death. Do it or not, it’s up to you. You can even decide to rebel against all the Zentharim, which will start a fight.
What we advise you to do, is to avoid all these problems by convincing Zarys to let you work with her. You will thus have a quest asking you to deliver the crate to Baldur’s Gate and you will receive a very interesting heavy crossbow.
