How to Get Boots of Genial Striding in Baldur’s Gate 3
You can purchase Boots of Genial Striding from a vendor named Blurg who can be found in the Myconid Colony in the Underdark. A quick way to get into the Underdark is to use the Well found in the Blighted Village. However, at least one of your characters will need to pass a DC10 Intelligence check in order to be able to discover the well. Once down inside there will be lots of spider enemies, in addition to a Phase Spider Matriach you can choose to fight.
Head west over to find the Whispering Depth waypoint. Near there should be a open chasm. Cast Feather Fall or consume a Feather Fall potion BEFORE jumping in. This will land you safely in the Underdark. Head northwest and you should find the Myconid Colony. You’ll have to pass a DC 5 Charisma check in order to convince them that you’re a friendly sort, and they’ll allow you in. You’ll find Blurg just a little to the north of the Colony waypoint.
If this is your first time speaking to Blurg there will be some story dialogue and an interesting character to meet. The conversation may end automatically, but you can immediately click to speak to Blurg again and get the option to ask if he has anything interesting to trade.
