  1. Complete Prologue: Progress until you reach Act 3 and arrive at Rivington village

After the prologue on the ship, you wake up on the Ravenged Beach, and Emerald Grove is just to the north. You can also gather some companions along the way if you haven’t done it already: Astarion, Gale, Shadowheart, and Lae’zel. As you approach the Grove, a brief cutscene will play, and the battle will start. You shouldn’t encounter significant difficulties. Consider climbing the small rocky hill, where one of the goblin archers is positioned, to gain a tactical advantage with a clear view of the battlefield. Prioritize dealing with the ranged attackers and spellcasting goblins, and then help in defeating the Za’krug boss and the remaining goblins near the gate. After the fight, you can search the fallen enemies for loot, including the Gloves of Power, which can be found on Za’krug’s body.
