📋 About This Mod

Testing Patch 5 - this mod may not be needed anymore.

REQUIRES THE BG3 SCRIPT EXTENDER

Must be installed BEFORE STARTING ACT II

Act 2 starts either when you leave the zone that has the Creche in it to go to Shadowcursed Lands, or if you go up the Elevator at Grymforge. This must be, at the latest, installed before these points.

Installation:

Install using either Vortex or bg3 Mod Manager

Install bg3 Script Extender

- For script extender, either unblock the dll and put it in your gamedata/bin folder, or install it with bg3 Mod Manager under the tools option

Be warned of:

  • []If you have reached Act II this mod WILL NOT WORK. Go use my other one if you still want Minthara. It is impossible to recruit Minthara without summoning her if Act 2 has begun. There is a technical reason for this and I'll explain it in the comments section

    []Also you may want to consider removing my other mod - "Daughter of Lolth - Minthara" if using this. There isn't any point in using both and I haven't fully tested the interactions between the two.

What this mod DOES

  • []Makes it so "Knocking Out" Minthara does not end her Journey. Defeat her, and you will see again.

    []You can defeat her either at the Goblin Camp or during the raid. No problem!

    []Prevents Halsin from being immediately KOd

    []Makes sure you get proper quest completion after defeating Minthara

    []Reward you for using it with The Drow Priestess Robe mod from IOCentric (not required)

  • []This mod does not leave a body for you to loot, so all of Minthara's equipment can be picked up from the gilded chest behind her in the Goblin Camp.

  • []Allows you to keep the Tieflings alive while recruiting Minthara

    What this mod DOESN'T

    • []Allow you to recruit Minthara if you've already started Act 2 before it was installed.

    • Allow you to recruit Minthara IN Act 1

      Also - If you want to recruit Minthara as a full companion in Act I, or romance her at the Tiefling party check out my other mod Daughter of Lolth - Minthara
