It should be noted that you’ll want to avoid trying to do so unless you have Shadowheart, Astarion, and Gale in your party, or other party members that can have similar stat distributions to these characters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
To reach it, take the path to the left of the entrance and then climb down the craggy rocks. Continue to the left, and you’ll reach a chest with some items nearby. As you approach it, you’ll automatically undergo a Religion check. Having Shadowheart in your party should lead to a successful check, and she’ll reveal that there’s a statue just out of view. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Once this occurs, remove her from your party temporarily and have her stand near the entrance to the cave. It is possible to have her around and even to use her to open the chest, but you won’t get the best result possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
After she’s left waiting, head back toward the chest and then rotate your camera until the statue comes into view. Use the Jump ability to cross the gap between it and the chest, and then bring Astarion behind the statue. His perception should reveal a Selune Prayer sheet. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
When the sheet is visible, make a save file and have Gale examine the sheet. A Religion check will be carried out, and you’ll learn how to open the chest if it succeeds. If it doesn’t succeed, load the save and try again until it works.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Once you get a successful Religion check, right click the sheet and pick it up. Then, go back to the chest and make a new save. Open your inventory, and have Gale read the prayer sheet. This should result in the chest opening, after which you’ll get some valuable accessories and loot. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
