To get the Monster Slayer Glaive in Baldur’s Gate 3 you first need to make your way into the Goblin Camp on the far west side of the Act 1 map. Secondly, enter the Shattered Sanctum to find the trader Roah Moonglow. The Goblin Camp has two entrances:

  1. The main entrance, which is heavily guarded. If you’ve rescued Sazza from the Druid Grove then she will be there to vouch for you. Otherwise, you can try to use dialogue to get past the guards or simply fight them all.
  2. There is a main entrance you can find by traveling south. Jump down and cross the gorge over a fallen log and then get in through the back way. Be aware that this secret entrance is heavily trapped. Best to have a Rogue go in first.

Then, from the gate head north into the main camp where the goblins are feasting outside. Keep walking straight north through them and you’ll find the entrance to the Shattered Sanctum.

Next, you’ll be challenged again by more goblin guards once you’re inside. However, most dialogue checks here are pretty easy to pass. Consequently, can claim you are there to meet with one of the Goblin leaders. Simply choose one, it doesn’t matter. Once the guards let you by, you’re free to go anywhere in the Sanctum.

Walk down the long hallway and descend the stairs into the main open area. Take an immediate left turn and up another set of stairs. You will find Roah Moonglow right at the top, and will find the Monster Slayer Glaive for sale in her inventory.
