[Spoiler] Companions for House of Hope?

[Floymin]

Which companions have reason to enter the House of Hope with me? The only one's I am certain of so far are Lae'zel and Karlach.

Are you asking which ones you should bring to make the fighting easier? Or which ones have a story reason to want to go?

I'm not sure anyone has a story reason except Lae'zel. Most of the time I just go with whoever is in my party at the time, although having some non-fire-based AOE spells for the final fight is a good idea.

As for combat, it all depends on your builds. I always take Astarion, Gale and Karlach, simply because they send Raphael to his father in +- 2 turns

Yes, I meant story reason. I suppose since Karlach and Lae'zel are the only ones, I can bring Gale to cheese Raphael.

Karlach will tell you her engine has calmed down now that she's back in the Hells, and also that she's terrified to be back. You can reassure her that everything is fine.

Then there's some dialogue when you return where she tells you the respite is over. Not a reason to have to take her, but I am just pointing it out. I don't think taking her affects her storyline or fate.

I wondered if Wyll would have any unique character dialogue in HoH; didn't particularly see any.

Lae'Zel is very happy to hear about taking the Hammer which you can tell her at camp, but she doesn't have to be there when you do so. It's not one of those things where she gets upset about not being on the team.

From a tactical point of view, make sure you bring someone or something that can protect you from fire damage. Don't take anything that deals fire damage, all the devils are immune to it. Karlach's soul coins will be more useless than usual.

I feel like Lae'zel should go. She has dialogue and is very pleased when you pick up the hammer.

Downside is that the she is quite vulnerable to getting mind-controlled by Raph's love slave. That sucks when she starts attacking you.

I don't think Wyll has a compulsion to go there, but given his story I think it'd be reasonable to think that he'd volunteer for a seemingly suicidal mission to thwart a fiend who's ensnaring mortals with his schemes, something he understands all too well.

But Lae'zel definitely has the very specific motivation of ensuring that the party gets the hammer.

Omg that fight without Yurgir or Hope is the most fun I have had in a battle
