Minthara: Difference between revisions

** If the party sides with the druids instead, but still wishes to ensure she appears at Moonrise Towers, when fought at the goblin camp in Act 1, she will need to be [[Knocked Out (Temporary) (Condition)|knocked out]] while being [[Temporarily Hostile (Condition)|temporarily hostile]]. Only if both of these conditions are fulfilled will she appear at Moonrise Towers. The easiest way to do this is to simply commit a crime in front of her to turn her temporarily hostile, knock her unconscious, and then proceed to destroy the rest of the goblin camp and its leaders in one go, that is, without a [[Long Rest]] in between until the celebratory party afterwards.{{note|Prior to Patch 5, a bug could be exploited to recruit Minthara even when siding with the grove. Minthara had to be knocked out in Act 1, after which she would recover after a Long Rest. Once the player reached Act 2 and acquired polymorph and dominate beast spells, they could return, turn her into a sheep and dominate her. The party then fast-traveled back to Moonrise towers and would smuggle Minthara as a sheep into the throne room, where the judgement would continue as if Minthara lived. After the cutscene she would be transported to the dungeon. The player would have to attack her quickly once imprisoned, (as she would begin to run away otherwise) and then turn invisible and exit combat. Minthara would then be part of the interrogation scene and her recruitment can proceed as normal. This exploit became unnecessary once Patch 5 made her recruitable simply by making her [[Knocked Out (Temporary) (Condition)|temporarily unconscious]] in Act 1.}}

As a drow and follower of the Absolute, Minthara has a highly hostile and cruel attitude towards other beings, considering almost everyone as inferior. She has a special disdain for those who do not share her beliefs, and holds other of her race in high regard. Her upbringing as a noble in [[Menzoberranzan]] further compounds her superiority complex.

===Act One===

Minthara is first found at the [[Goblin Camp]], planning an attack on [[Emerald Grove]]. The player can choose to help her [[raid the Emerald Grove]], but helping her in this instance is not required for recruitment. As of Patch 5, Minthara can remain available for later recruitment whilst still completing "[[Defeat the Goblins]]" by knocking her out. However, Minthara  must be rendered [[Knocked Out (Temporary) (Condition)|temporarily unconscious]] rather than [[Knocked Out (Condition)|permanently so]].<ref name=":0">[https://forums.larian.com/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=925862 PSA - Recruiting Minthara In A Good Playthrough]</ref>

Note that raiding the Grove with Minthara will cause [[Karlach]] and [[Wyll]] to permanently leave the player's party.
