I wanna do the Volo Eye surgery but I wanna know the risk first

[Mikumonaa]

how many approval points will deduct if i agree to volo's eye surgery?? Thank you!

[Kafik]

Approval?? From who?

[Dizzy Ladybug]

i don't know exactly how much but it's really not something to worry about. the game gives you a lot of approval points.

unless you're really mean to companions and ignore their personal quests, it's hard not to have high approval halfway through the game.

Barely worth worrying about. I used to reload when companions disapproved, but honestly it does not matter that much. You’re gonna be fine.

Karlach disapproves if you do this but the effect is not really noticeable. There are basically no downsides.

The bg3.wiki has surprisingly lots of information on the matter of approval and goes into great detail for such interactions. Might be a wiki of use for you.

You gain disadvantage to perception rolls though

Nothing ventured, nothing gained.

Or in modern terms, ♥♥♥♥ around and find out.

Still, did the whole run without needing Volo to do his thing. If anything, it's just a minor buff that may or may not work, should the die be in your favor.

Is there any proof for this? I would be interested in seeing it.

I think that's for the other thing, right?

Not any more. That was changed.

Not from Volo. It's a pure buff, because he replaces your eye with one that gives you free detect invisibility.

I find that companions who are often with me in my party all have high opinions of me, but those who sit around in camp do not. I guess camp makes them grouchy.
