Baldur’s Gate 3: How To Get (& Use) The Devilfoil Masks
The Devilfoil Mask in is a helmet with a peculiar, almost reptilian look, but has some important uses that players should know about once these masks are found. There are four masks to be found with relative ease, and they are perfect for party builds that focus on strength instead of magic. If a player instead favors spells over melee combat, these masks have a backup use case that can equip players with powerful bombs later in the game.

While wearing a mask, the wearer obtains the Infernal Legion passive, which grants +1 to Strength and -1 to Intelligence, Wisdom, and Charisma while within a 20-meter radius of another Devilfoil Mask wearer (up to +3/-3). This is beneficial for Strength-oriented characters, such as Karlach and Lae'zel, but is not recommended for magic users like Gale and Shadowheart.

The masks' secondary use is introduced in Act II, when the player reaches the Last Light Inn in the Shadow-Cursed Lands. The infernal mechanic Dammon can be found here, who can craft Orthon Explosives if given Devilfoil Masks. This
