Jaheira and Khalid go to Nashkell

[Clovis Sangrail]

I picked up Imoen and went straight to the Friendly Arms Inn to see Jaheira and Khalid.

I put them in my party, and we set off to the north to farm ankhegs.

Joined by Adjantis and Neera, we were happily dragging ankheg carcasses back to Beregost and pocketing some nice change, when Jaheira and Khalid started whining about wanting to go to Nashkell. But I had other things planned.

So the question -- If I take them to Nashell, will that shut them up, or do I need to actually do the mines quest to get them to quit ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥? I could drop down to Nashkell and pick up that nice piece of ankheg shell armor, but I really want to clean out some of the areas between Friendly Arms and Nashkell before I hit the mines.

At what point do they just up and leave?

And who else has a timer? I know that besides J & K, Kivan the ranger does, and Minsc wants to go rescue his mage girlfriend, Who else?

Yes

At what point do they just up and leave?

You get two or three warnings

And who else has a timer?

Most non-EE NPCs that have quests come with timers

The scripting of this short personal quest is sort of funny actually, since once you take K&J to Nashkel, they lose all interest. At least they ought to retain command, visit the major Berrun Ghastkill and contribute essential talking. Then they could draw conclusions, transfer command to Gorion's ward and confirm companionship/loyalty.

It's similar with other companions. Once a personal quest ends, activity stops. Safana, for example, won't contribute anything that would be helpful with regard to making a profit. No hints on where to search for stuff, no charisma or seduction based events as to get past guards, no thievery offers.

Thanks. I've been playing this game since Minsc was a corporal, but I've never done much with J & K, so I did not remember whether they would ditch me or not.

We decided to go to Nashkell, dig around in a farm field for a bit, grab a beer at the Nashkell inn, then go back north and find Bassilus.
