📋 About This Mod
QaSIZkl53_o
When you defeat a bloated hyena, to your surprise, Lvl 1Minsc pops out from its belly and joins your party.
배가 부푼 하이에나를 물리치자 놀랍게도 그 뱃속에서 1레벨 민스크가 튀어나와 당신의 파티에 합류합니다!
While Minsc is at camp, he's focused on spending time with his beloved friend Boo and therefore won't react if a player tries to initiate a conversation. In such cases, use the newly added "Call Minsc" spell!
민스크가 야영지에 머무는 동안에는 그의 소중한 친구 '부'와 시간을 보내는 데 집중하고 있기 때문에, 플레이어가 대화를 걸어도 반응하지 않습니다. 그럴 때는 새로 추가된 주문인 '민스크 소환(Call Minsc)' 주문을 사용하세요!
