Do you need to have Beheaded Wizard Equipped?

[Lyric]

Playing as O'saa, was wondering if you need to have Nas'hrah equipped in order to hear him talk. I want to continue to hear what he has to say, but his actual mechanical use is kinda bad and I'd like to use that accessory slot for something else.

Nah, it's fine to unequip him. He just doesn't give input to everything. Usually dialogue with other characters he's got little to add.

Try all the goofy noise like entering the confessional though, he tends to have something to say about anything religious.

I can confirm that you don't need Nas'hrah equipped as an accessory item in order to hear his dialogue. He will still speak up when he wants to.
Of course, this 'bonus ranting' perk only applies for O'saa, since he's the only one capable of hearing the ♥♥♥♥♥♥ up wizard's words.
