As if Karlach needed even more improvements in Baldur’s Gate 3. You can upgrade Karlach with Infernal Iron at Dammon’s blacksmith shop already. Now you can get her a temporary (but long-lasting) buff that turns her into a raging hot-blooded murder machine on the battlefield. Soul Coins are another devilish rare item that can only be used with Karlach. Consuming a coin unleashes the true power of her Infernal Engine, allowing her to bounce around the battlefield burning her enemies alive with a flurry of melee attacks.

What Do Soul Coins Do?
Soul Coins are rare consumables used by Karlach. Only Karlach can use these coins — consuming one powers-up Karlach with the special Infernal Fury condition. Using a Soul Coin rewards you with the following buffs.
- Infernal Fury Condition: Lasts until Long Rest. Her weapon and unarmed attacks deal an additional 1~4 Fire damage when she is Raging or when her hit points drop below 25%.
- Fire Resistance: Fire damage against this entity from magical attacks is halved. Fire damage against this entity from non-magical attacks is halved.
You’ll first learn about Soul Coins and how they work in Act 2. Talk to a creature called Lann Tarv at the entrance to Moonrise Towers. You can talk to him if you’re infiltrating the tower as a True Soul. After accepting his coins, Karlach will explain how Soul Coins work. But, Soul Coins can be used even before this point in the story. Any time you find a Soul Coin, it can be used to buff Karlach until a long rest resets the condition.
