However, it isn't necessary to find him and open his sarcophagus in order to have him arrive at camp. If the party doesn't come across Withers in the Dank Crypt, then it's a matter of time until he shows up at camp anyway with an exclamation point over his head to explain the services he offers.

How do I befriend Astarion? ›

Although not a companion in of himself, the enigmatic Withers is an incredibly important (and entirely missable) NPC to have in the game.

The easiest way is to simply wait until he comes to the player camp himself. This will usually happen after the player has made some progress in the main story. When he spawns there, all the player has to do is talk to him and he will make himself available, in exchange for gold.

Wither skeletons spawn in nether fortresses at a light level between 0 and 7, in groups of up to 4. They are the only mobs that can spawn inside wither roses due to their immunity to the damaging effect.

You can reload your save and bring him back like nothing happened, so it's not the end of the world, but maybe don't try this in an Honour Mode run since you're limited to one save file. That means dead Withers stays dead.

One thing to remember is that interacting with Withers or responding to him in any manner will not affect the gameplay in Baldur's Gate 3. There are no right or wrong answers when you interact with him in this role-playing game.

Withers no longer see invisible players. Iron Golems no longer sees invisible hostile-neutral mobs.
