Justice For Minthara

[Karasel]

I say this because during my Dark Urge playthrough (in the 3rd act), I had my character open her mind up to Minthara to show her all the messed up things that the Dark Urge caused, and Minthara didn't flinch. She accepted the character right away.

I think there is something to be said about someone looking at the darkest part of you and accepting that. Minthara has my full respect now, and I want more content for her. Let Minthara be great in the game. She's a real one.

They already announced a hotfix for blocked Minthara dialogues...

please stop its hard enough already to resist pulling a anakin on the tieflings

[Urk_da_WAAAGH!]

I will make sure to throw her body on the abyss after killing her with a poisoned dagger on my next playthrough

[kevin]

she is anything but real

[Trance]

It's simply criminal what they did to her
>no quest
>no items tailored to her
>quite literally very few dialogue lines compared to any other companion
>her romance offers no 'final chapter'
This on top losing so much content if you pursue her.

why even bother giving us minthara when they did nothing to let us actually romance her. missing her scene in act 1 so i could keep karlach while recruiting minthara as a perma party member, and now theres nothing else at all after her saying she'll be my lover and come to me in the night. even the drow twins won't recognize the relationship flag, they tell me to come back with a lover. hello, minthara is standing right there.

She's one of the worst companions anyway along with Shadowfart so there is no loss.

Worst is Gale. All he does is eat your magic items and be used for a speed run glitch.

Minthara deserves to have her content added back

She is a Drow. The only good Drow is a dead Drow.

Spot on. Drow fall into the "Knife-Ear" catergory and thus deserve to be exterminated along with their surface-dwelling kin.
Humans slighly behind them.

He does? He eats 3 in my playtthoughs, all of them largely useless and then he's done.

This is unsurprising. To get her as a companion you'd have to side with goblins which conflicts with their refugees narrative. So they did a bare minimum for the "other option" to create a feeling "it's there" and that "there's a real choice" - whereas in reality you have to put yourself into a huge disadvantage by losing 3 companions + tons of quests and content for doing it.

P.S. Not many know, but before some point in EA the starting location looked much different and you could turn left at the crash site and walk all the way to the goblin camp (there was no artifact sequence back then), instead of choosing to go upwards to the grove. That led to you talking to goblins first therefore erasing the "betrayal" trope from siding with them and making the choices truly equal.

3 greens and you get a very strong spell nuker for end-game. Gale's romance is very sweet too.

I did not expect to see all this elf/drow racism in this thread, wtf 😅.

Y'all need to play dark urge, side with the goblins, share bunks w/ Minthara at the goblin party, and let Minthara see into your mind when talking about your dark urge past. Then, once you have gained a shred of good taste, come back here and tell me I'm wrong (you can't).

Let Minthara unalive the clown in act 3, you cowards.

Agreed. I leave his butt in the portal, or I keep him around to use as bait for Orin.

Minthara needs more content. My evil Tav, Astarion, and Minthara are the Unholy Trinity. Love them all to bits.
