Unlucky Thief’s Gloves Location in BG3

  • Akabi the Djinn, a non-playable character (NPC) in Baldur's Gate 3.
  • Akabi's Location in the Circus of the Last Days of Baldur's Gate 3 (BG3).

The Unlucky Thief’s Gloves can be obtained as a random reward from spinning Akabi the Djinn’s Wheel of Wonders at the Circus of the Last Days. To reach this circus, head south of the Open Hand Temple in the western part of Rivington. Once there, seek out the red-skinned Djinn and interact with him to take a spin at his wheel of fortune.

Remember, each spin will set you back 500 gold, and the prize pool consists of 16 items, with the Unlucky Thief’s Gloves being one of them. The upside is that you won’t win the same prize twice, so every spin brings you closer to your desired gloves.

While some of Akabi’s items may seem like unusable junk, the ones you can actually use come with humorously unique quirks. Hidden gems, such as the Unlucky Thief’s Gloves, provide a +2 bonus to Sleight of Hand checks – the highest for your glove slot. Another notable item is the Reverse Rain Cloak, which permanently bestows the ‘Wet’ status on your character when worn.
