This Baldur’s Gate 3 guide explains how to bring down the Foundation Block in the Chapel.

Baldur’s Gate 3 has at last made its complete debut, and it has certainly made an impact. Its remarkable success has garnered the interest of gamers, propelling it into a prominent position among the top titles on Steam.

The fundamental factors driving its widespread acclaim are its captivating storyline, engrossing gameplay mechanics, and alluring role-playing elements.

Moreover, the game demands significant strategic thinking from its players. Instead of handing out straightforward solutions, Baldur’s Gate 3 encourages players to dedicate time to unraveling puzzles and carefully assessing their choices.

When players reach the Chapel in Chapter One, they will notice a large piece of cracked floor at its centre. There appears to be space beneath the floor, suggesting you can get underneath it.

Hanging above the floor from a wooden crane is a Foundation Block. Most players will likely assume this can be used to smash through the floor below.

But how do you bring it down?
