Black Diamonds are rare components in BG3 used primarily for powerful crafting. Here are top locations:
Primary Locations:
- The Underdark: Prime hunting ground. Explore veins near Sussur Tree and Grymforge entrances. Duergar camps often yield them.
- Grymforge:
- Search rubble piles and ore veins near Adamantine Forge.
- Check locked containers in ruins northeast of the Forge waypoint.
- Omeluum: Sold by this Society of Brilliance Illithid merchant in the Ebonlake Grotto (Underdark). Inventory refreshes.
Secondary Sources:
- Mountain Pass: Limited nodes near Crèche Y'llek.
- Enemy Drops: Loot Duergar enemies like Skarjall.
- Vendors: Check stock at Derryth Bonecloak (Myconid Colony) and Blurg (Myconid Colony), especially post-Act 1.
Key Notes:
- Use characters with high Perception to spot mining nodes.
- Thoroughly loot all containers and defeat mining foes (Duergar).
- Rest frequently to reset vendor inventories.
