anybody went evil route just for minthara?

[nod for kiss]

spoilers down below.

i killed entire emerald grove and obeyed her every commands. she is just so beautiful and her voice is amazing. hopefully i can reach moontowers then recruit her soon.

[The_Dipl0mat]

Basically yeah

[JennyTheGhoul]

She's the only reason I'm considering an evil run. I don't know why, I always have a hard time going to evil route in most games. I think it's my deep-seated need for people to like me or something.

[(^._.^)ﾉ]

I wanted to play evil to get her, but didn't want to lose Wyll and Karlach. So I ignored the entire emerald grove conflict and went straight to act 2. Now I have Minthara in my party and am doing a... semi-evil? playthrough. I don't know yet. But yes, I left Halsin and the Tieflings to die to get her in my party.

The main problem with doing that is you also lose Dammon and can't do the second part of Karlach's quest (unless he somehow manages to survive that but I don't THINK he does).

[Strawberry Amaranth]

Its the run I am currently doing right now actually

[Pan Darius Cassandra]

I don't attack the Grove, I just let the Rite of Thorns complete (best solution) and rescue Mommy Minty later.

There are two mods on nexus.

First gives a ring to summon minthara at party.
Second, my preference, allows you to knock minthara out at goblin camp, and rescue her at moonrise as you do in the evil route.
Works well in say, a redemptive durge run, her and karlach are quite a pair.

But yeah did evil run just for drow x drow

I feel it in my gut that Larian will eventually make knocking her out so you can recruit her in Act 2 a base part of the game come the release of the Definitive Edition.

Don’t get me wrong, mods are amazing, but it’s not worth risking losing your entire campaign come an sudden patch.

I heard they introduced a patch that kills Halsin if you have her, I think. Idk, I remember hearing about it but I havent done that

I actually dont know where he went in my evil run so I'm a bit worried

[Dorani]

Yeah, I did. The only reason for an evil playthgrough for me. Combined it with an (evil) durge. Perfect. Nearly done with Act 3 by now, so it's coming to an end soon.

Losing the rewards you get from saving the tieflings at the end of their entire quest line, as well as losing all the stuff you can buy from Dammon--all of that is worth far, far more than Minthara to me.

This is after doing a full-evil run with her. Don't get me wrong, I like her, but I like owning every piece of mid-to-high-end gear, more. Much more. It doesn't help that her story, content, and any semblance of character progression essentially end right after you save her from Moonrise. Prepare to go, like, 30 hours with virtually no meaningful interaction with her, after Moonrise. Only at the very end of the game do you remember that you actually romanced her, because her relationship interaction is evidently broken.

Allowing the tieflings to die will ensure, at the very least, you won't pick this up:

And wouldn't you know, I was a warlock on this run. I really wanted this robe, and I expected to get it in my evil run, but I didn't remember exactly how I got it on my earlier runs, and I didn't look it up. Cut to me being disappointed when I was midway through act 3 and hadn't found it yet. Then I looked it up.

[Zero McDol]

Yep, I did.

It's a game, nobody dies, so I decided to go for the companion that I wanted to have. Frankly, I find it annoying that her romance is gated behind that arc, but whatever.

[nod for kiss]

it looks like im the only one who choosed evil path on her first playthrough. i actually never considered being evil but anything for minthara :)

[FertileJUBJUB]

does she still have the bug were she ends the relationship because youve beeen with someone else even if you havent?

[Narky]

"Tonight, you are mine."

—Minthara

Think the only word I was able to muster in there was "Oh".
