To unlock Illithid Powers in , you will need to find Mind Flayer Parasites that can be found in various locations. While it might be natural for players to resist the parasite inside their characters, some might want to collect as many Mind Flayer Parasite Specimens as possible and unlock new powers.
It is worth pointing out that you can only find Mind Flayer Parasite Specimens ininfected corpses, much like your character. You can loot these specimens from these corpses or from jars that can be found in various locations. Luckily, you will know when you get close to a Mind Flayer Parasite Specimen in .
The trick to finding Mind Flayer Parasite Specimen is using your Guardian, the second character you design after creating your character. This Guardian will appear in your dreams after using Illithid Powers and offers to help.
Once the dream sequence has been triggered, your Guardian will help you search for more parasites. Whenever you are near a Mind Flayer Parasite Specimen in, whether in corpses or a jar, your Guardian will telepathically inform you there is a parasite nearby. As soon as you are informed, carefully examine your surroundings for a jar or an NPC to fight.
If you want to get every Mind Flayer Parasite Specimen, you will have to get them from every infected companion in , such as Shadowheart and Wyll. You will have to kill these companions, removing them from the rest of the story. Killing your companions might not be a great idea, and instead, it would be wise to collect Mind Flayer Parasite Specimens from the following locations. There are plenty of other unknown parasite locations; however, the aforementioned method should let you spot them in most areas.
