BG3 Flind Dialogue Options
After finding Flind, she approaches you and you start communicating.
- Search her mind for the source of the Voice.
- Use your Illithid to make her obey the Voice; to brave the flames and fest on the meat in the cave. Doing so, she will obey your command. The whole pack goes into the cave and fights the humans inside.
- Withdraw from her mind and prepare to strike.
After the gnolls feast on the humans inside the cave. Flind can be approached again. She tells you that the flesh of the survivors wasn't enough to satisfy her hunger.
- Use your Illithid powers to command her to leave.
- Use your Illithid power to dominate her mind and order her to feast on the other gnolls. This starts a battle against the whole pack of gnolls.
- Sever the mental connection and prepare to fight.
- If you are a Bard , You can attempt to tell a joke via telepathy. You must win a DC 18 Performance Check. Winning the Check gives all the Gnolls a Mirth-Wracked Status effect for 2 turns

AnonymousControlling flind and combat with flind yeld equal ammount of exp. 225.
There is possibility to recive even more if you make flind kill gnolls and then kill him in combat. By doing so you miss gold from zenths for bringing boys back.

currently astarion seems bugged and can't use his illithid power to turn her against the gnolls, the narrator will say the usual line when the symbol glows but the dialogue option will not appear.

Gale and Astarion approves of you turning her against the other Gnolls, you might want them in your team for the bonus points

Using command: drop on flind is a waste of time, as she doesn't drop the weapon and still uses it to attack on the following turn. So use something else to try and CC her.
Taking that flail would be crazy OP anyway, I suppose.

If you mind control her, make sure you finish her before all enemies are dead. If you talk to her after the fight, the game sometimes cheats by having her heal to full, and she can still finish your entire party if you have taken a lot of damage.

It should be noted that Flind is not her name. 'Flind' is more like a title or profession, you're essentially doing the equivalent of referring to Gale exclusively as 'Wizard'.

In order to have Flind speak to you, you MUST get as close as being adjacent to her. Then, you must NOT attack, ending your turn, allowing Flind to engage in conversation. Yes, this very well means, it is possible to die for this inspiration point, and even for the scene to just outright fail and be forced into combat at a disadvantage after having taken a few hits. IF you or ANYONE attacks ANY of the Gnolls. Flind will NOT engage you in conversation. You MUST approach from the front of the cave, NOT the back. As the Zhent NPC's will get involved, which also force fails the approach. Man... this one is finnicky, and uber dangerous. Easiest resolution would have been to have the Zhent's hiding out in the back of the cave, with the Gnolls set to trigger a conversation while searching the cave for the Zhent's. Leaving the chance to find them via the back entrance, or going in through the front. As is, you gotta pray RNGesus loves you. Enough to NEXT to Flind, AND to get Flind next to you in Initiative, AND you succeed in the checks, AND you don't get killed by the OTHER Gnolls in the process, AND the Zhent's don't die for the extended portion of the related quest. This one is mean Larian. Super mean. Both, an impressive achievement in luck and a Charlatan Inspiration if you SUCCEED.

Absolutely tragic you can use the worm 3 times and no matter what a gnoll companion just isn't possible

I'm attacked on sight by the gnolls and have no dialogue options with Flind
i avoided the gnolls when i first entered that area, just wandered around everywhere else i could without going too far west. i ended up finding the z hideout and using mind-reading to get their password. i entered peacefully and picked up the quest for the chest. i went back and killed the first set of hyenas/gnolls near the bridge. then approached the cave and arranged an attack. mid-battle before i could attack Flind up close (i had already done plenty of damage from afar, and killed a few other gnolls), he approached my closest party member and started a dialogue (which i was not at all expecting at all). i used illithid powers to make them attack the guys in the cave. i went to loot the cave, and when approached again by Flind i persuaded them to leave peacefully. then i returned the chest and collected the reward.
