Wyll is a companion and an origin character in Baldur’s Gate 3. This allows Wyll to have a unique questline of his own alongside various endings in BG3. While the story of Wyll is rather straightforward compared to some other companions, your choices can influence the outcome and what will happen to him.
Wyll is a warlock who has a pact with a demon deity, Mizora. Most of his actions are influenced by her orders, and there is no chance of anything good happening to him unless you intervene. In this guide, we will tell you about all the possible endings you can achieve for Wyll.
As the game changes the outcomes depending on your choices, it is impossible to achieve all the endings in a single playthrough. Our guide will help you choose the best ending or the one you want for Wyll, while getting an idea for your future playthroughs.
Fight for the Druid Grove
You will first meet Wyll fighting for the Druid Grove. If you recruit Wyll at this point and progress with the story, you will get a mission to infiltrate Goblin Camp.
Upon reaching the Goblin Camp, you can meet one of the Goblin Leaders, Minthara, and pledge your allegiance. She will ask you to join her in attacking the Druid Grove. If you agree, Wyll will get irritated, and you can convince him to stay.
If you help Minthara attack the Grove, Wyll will get hostile and attack you. The only option you will have is to kill Wyll on the spot. If Wyll is not at the party, he will leave once you have a party at your camp during the night.
This is considered a bad ending for Wyll as it will result in a premature ending to his quest and his untimely death.
An Eternity in Hell
During Act 2, Wyll’s patron, Mizora, will ask you to rescue one of Zariel’s servants from the Mindflayer’s colony. This colony is beneath the Moonrise Towers and is difficult to avoid.
The servant in question is Mizora herself, who has been captured by Mindflayers and is kept inside a pod. You must save her from her early demise. If you don’t save Mizora or kill her inside the pod, Wyll will be condemned to hell for eternity in the form of a Lemure.
He will turn into a blobby monster and will be sent to Avernus to be tortured nonstop. This is the worst ending for Wyll in BG3.
Becoming a Duke
Once you complete Wyll’s companion quest “Blades of the Frontier” by defeating Ansur during Act 3, you will get a chance to convince Wyll to become the next Duke.
Once you defeat the Elder Brain at the end of Act 3, Wyll will leave to become the next Duke. You will meet him again during Wither’s epilogue party. He will tell you of his exploits during the time and will also mention his inconvenience of having the horns.
If you have romanced Wyll, he will ask you to become a duke to rule alongside him. Even if you join Wyll or not, he will vow to rebuild the city for its inhabitants to have a better future. This is the best ending for Wyll in BG3.
Become the Blade of Avernus
For this ending, you must let Wyll become a demon. This can be achieved by saving Karlach from Wyll and then recruiting both into your party. This will enrage Mizora and turn Wyll into a demon.
Continue with Wyll’s companion quest “Baldes of the Frontier” and complete it by killing the dragon Ansur during Act 3. However, don’t encourage him to become the next Duke. Instead, tell him that he is a hero.
This will allow Wyll to take a new title, “Blade of Avernus”. If you have romanced Wyll, once you defeat the Elder Brain at the end of Act 3, he will ask you to join him in venturing into Avernus. He now wants to hunt and kill demons.
You can meet Wyll at Withers’ party in the epilogue six months later. He will tell you of his adventures in Avernus and all the monsters he has killed. If his father is still alive, he will tell you that he is okay with Wyll’s adventures.
If Wyll is still a servant to Mizora, he will tell you that she is okay with her adventures and even gives him enough freedom to chase and kill any demon in the Avernus.
If he is freed from Mizora’s contract, he will tell you that he is now looking for her as his next target. He is now a ranger and lost all his Warlock powers in breaking the contract.
This is a good ending for Wyll as he is now doing what he loves despite his appearance. Furthermore, he gets his partner (you) to join him in his hellish adventures.
A Journey with Karlach
If Wyll becomes the Blade of Avernus on your advice and you also complete Karlach’s companion quest, he will ask Karlach to join him in Avernus. He will guarantee her protection from Zariel and will help her find a cure for her condition.
If you have romanced Wyll, you can join them on the demon slaying adventures in Avernus and meet them later in the epilogue. If you don’t, you can still meet them both in the epilogue and learn of their adventures.
It is the best ending for Karlach and also a good ending for Wyll.
Route to becoming Blades of Frontier
If you decide to kill Karlach during Wyll’s companion quest, Mizora won’t change him into a devil. Upon completing Wyll’s companion quest by killing Ansur during Act 3, if you don’t encourage Wyll to take on the mantle of Duke, he will keep his title of Blades of Frontier.
Once you end Act 3 by defeating the Elder Brain, Wyll will leave to hunt dragons and monsters. If you have romanced him, he will ask you to join him. Otherwise, he will appear in the prologue and tell you of his adventures.
As Karlach will be dead at this point, she won’t be able to join him. This is a good ending for Wyll in BG3, but a very bad ending for Karlach. Wyll will be able to keep his Warlock powers in the process.
Becoming a Tyrant
If you play as Wyll as an origin character, you will get an option to control three Netherstones during the fight with the Elder Brain.
If you decide to deceive the Mindflayer at your party or kill the Emperor, you can use the Netherstones to control the Elder Brain and rule in his stead.
This will convert Wyll into a tyrant who will control everyone in Baldur’s Gate city. As a bonus, he will turn everyone into a Mindflayer at the end, thus sealing their fates. This is a very bad ending for Wyll, and it was introduced with patch 7 of the game.
