It is possible to get both Karlach and Minthara into your party

[Deadpaanda]

Just as the post says i have confirmed how to get both of them into your party and let me explain how.
1. Do not pick a side in the grove battle.
2. take the underdark to get into act 2
3. get minthara at moonrise.
Now there is a drawback for Karlach if you do this. put simply the Teiflings will not survive. but hey you still got the dream team so have fun with that.

I definitely know that Karlach won't join if you try to recruit her *after* the grove. She somehow heard about it and doesn't want to talk to you.

that is why you don't participate in the grove battle at all. don't talk to the grove people or to the goblin leaders. just run past them

I thought the tiefling mechanic needs to be alive and not an enemy to have Karlach not leave your team

Without cheats?

I think you need to not complete the Grove quest, meaning not killing/knocking her out on the Goblin camp.

I think this makes it so Zevlor or some of his crew die.

But, that way Wyll and Karlach don't leave as you don't burn the Grove and you can rescue and then recruit Minthara on the Moon Towers.

From what I read, she is extremely undercooked as a companion.

Meaning, no romance progression and very little interactions outside of Act 1.

Take this with a grain of salt, however, as I have not confirmed this on my own.

zero cheats were used. all i did was ignore the grove and the goblins and i found minthara at moonrise but i did not find any refugees with the harpers.

Yeah sorry I kinda jumped the gun. I am on my phone and I thought this was a question not a "how to". Sorry.

Is there any other triggers that make Karlach leave the party? E.g. letting people at the Inn die and side with Absolute?
