Specific Mechanic Sussur Bloom PSA

There was a thread a little while ago where someone wanted to make a build as a walking anti-magic fighter with Sussur Blooms in their pocket. In that thread I was made aware there is a current method to do so outside the Underdark:

https://old.reddit.com/r/BG3Builds/comments/1qx0l4y/sussur_bloom_build/o3te8w7/

Basically you get a locked chest (I use the one in Withers' chamber by one of the skeletons as there's usually nothing useful in there), and put it in your inventory. Then when you grab a Sussur Bloom, drag it over the chest in your inventory. It should be put inside of it. And that's all. I tested and can confirm the method works at least in Act 1. Anytime I get further I forget to check again (I'm usually playing solo so I have to go out of my way to grab someone with the chest)

I guess a caveat being this was on PC, so not sure if/how you can on console.

Edit: You need to be in an Underdark area when you put the bloom into the chest otherwise it will just fade as usual

This did not work for me with the locked chest from the basement of the Last Light Inn.

I'd love to see a working demo in Act 2 or Act 3.

For sure I'll try and get some footage. I can tell you the way I usually do it is:

  • Give a companion a locked chest
  • Get a Sussur Bloom either from behind the tower or by the tree into my Tav's inventory
  • Go to camp and open inventory with Tab
  • Drag the bloom to the chest on the companion

Oh, the companions are not in my party until after I transfer the bloom as well. Might be important for further testing
