Story Item
ActionRunepowder Barrel is a Quest Item in Baldur's Gate 3. Some Items can be consumed granting various effects like buffing the Character or restoring HP, while others can be used to interact with the environment or provide Lore about Baldur's Gate 3 world.
When ignited, the barrel explodes in a radius of 18m. Targeted creatures must make a DC 12 Dexterity saving throw or take 10d8+36 force damage. On a successful save, targets still take half damage.
A secret concoction of smokepowder and gnomic mysticism, a single vial of runepowder is more volatile than a whole barrel of smokepowder. Who knows what this much could do...

Everyone talking about this in the first act but in the 3rd act the hideout for ironhand gnomes has 2 of these. Side against them in a certain confrontation and these are free for you to take.

Accept the vial. When the conversation ends, enable turn based mode and use dash, run up and loot the barrel before Philomeena can grab it. She will run away as normal even though you took the barrel.

Rarity: Very Rare - 10D8+40 Force Damage - Dex Save - Basically it's a prepackaged AoE Disintegrate. Gold Cost: 2500gp, Action to use, 16lbs, Special Trait: Auto Crits Objects and Environment Items. It's honestly not a bad item... had it's Dex Save not been terrible. Even if it Crits, there is a good chance, folks will take half damage anyways, which it won't because it's not an Attack. Frankly, let the Gnome keep it for story reasons. It's not worth the gold to steal, and you can use basic Smokepowder Bombs in its place, and keep the Rune Grenade as a keepsake... It's awful pretty for an explosive candle. Put it on display between some Alchemical Fire and you got a nice set piece.

Can anyone clarify if this item is safe to sell, or can it be used for anything outside of Grymforge? I blew up both debris spots with the barrels from the goblin camp after seeing the gold value for this thing.

Destroy a city? BS, stacking loads of smokebomb barrel does....

Developers should really expand on this. With all this runepowder they should allow the player to take some out and make grenades with it and other things.

Says this much runepowder would destroy a city....
So its awfully weak in battle compared to that.

Upon accepting only a vial the gnome will start to run away. Enter turn based mode when she started running and blast her and she will die with this in her inventory. Free nuke

Funny fact, you can steal this mid conversation, and ask for a small vial... the gnome never notices :D
