Best to kill Reimond in Act 2?

I know that if you fight him there, he'll eventually try and make a run for it which you can stop. But does he give a lot more exp if you let him go so you can meet and kill him in Arx?

Not enough to matter, but technically yes.

You get I think 11225 XP when he runs at the docks and gets away, to appear later in Arx. If you kill him in Arx he's worth 38800 XP. I'm not sure what experience he gives at the docks in the earlier chapter but i assume its the same 38800.

So if you let him escape you'll get the extra 11225 XP for letting him escape, and you MIGHT get more if for some reason he gives less experience killing him at the docks, but i never did so not sure exactly how much he gives if you don't let him escape on his ship.

As you see, its not a whole lot difference, and that little bit isn't going to push you to another level late in the game. So if he escapes, great if not, not a huge deal experience wise.

Wait he can make it to the Arx? Guy never lived that long in my playthroughs :D IRC if you don't kill him at docks in Driftwood, his next stop would be another docks near Blackpits

Yeah, then afterwards he’ll find himself in Arx, in the magister barracks. Gotta get past the hidden doors to their library down there.
