I love this method and wanted to try it for the first time but there's currently a bug that ruins your entire run if done. For some reason knocking out Minthara and letting her live for moonrise tower will cause the game to think you killed guards before and you will be given the 'enemy of justice' condition, causing both the moonrise guards and the Harpers to attack on sight. You don't get it anywhere else in Act 1, only when entering the shadow-cursed land. Just to clarify, I have killed strictly the goblins and those in the underdark grym forge (minus the slaved gnomes) but Minthara was the only one I didn't kill and this has caused the bug to happen. Hopefully the next hotfix will address this since this was an issue before last August.

I'm glad Larian saw people going to all the work of doing the Sheepthara Heist and said "you know what, if people want this character this much, we'll just give them a way to recruit her on the good path."

That series of failed rolls WITH advantage is the best description of BG3 possible

Probably important to mention as it probably still works like the sheepthara heist, DO NOT LONG REST, Knock minthara out, Then deal with gut and Dror WITH NO LONG REST. The quest should then complete to say you have dealt with the goblin threat to the grove etc etc, free Halsin and he will go back to the grove as you have "dealt" with all 3 leaders. Now confirm Minthy is still knocked out, get some distance from her but make sure you can still see her, NOW long rest. If she is up and walking about when you return from the rest you should be golden, DO NOT interact with her anymore at this point until moonrise.

Or, as I do it, kill Guts in her room (cast Silence so she can't call for help) go free the spiders, and watch them tear things up. Go to the Worg pen and free Halsin, leave him there. Poison the goblins at the front (after making sure you get everything you want from the vendor) kill the survivors. Kill the goblins in the front hall (close the door so nobody sees, and destroy the drums so they can't call for help), kill the goblins remaining in the hall (make sure the warlock has branded everyone you want to be branded). Go down the right side, killing the torturer and nicking his stuff. When the Camp is basically empty except for Minthara and Dror, go knock out Minthara and blow up Dror.

In an unconventional way, since I've unknowingly looted all her undergarments too, so the whole scene played out like some vile intro to a prono flick, but it worked at least. And I think Larian isn't even done here with how they're already hyping up some upcoming content and how Minthara + Halsin is possible, but completely ignored by NPCs. She also have some remnants and reactions in her dialogues as if you've had a "evil path" romance started with her. So yeah, I'm pretty sure Larian is cooking something spicy.

I did this and it didn’t work. Probably a bug but still. Got her temporarily aggro with an attack. Knocked her out. And then after the tiefling party I checked and she was still alive and no longer aggroed. But when I went to moonrise she wouldn’t show up no matter what I did. I even tried knocking her out again and long resting. Same issue, she still doesn’t show up at moonrise. So I ended up having to do the old SheepThara heist. It still works. Only problem is it breaks her AI. Her common actions (jump, dash, throw, etc) don’t show up on her action bar. And she also doesn’t enter combat normally. But aside from that it still works.

Easiest way to get her out of the tower is just disguise or invisible her and run past everything (avoid the eye though)

In my play through I did Gut, knocked out Minthara without talking to her, then Ragzlin, then freed Halsin. Didn’t long rest until Tiefling party. Minthara was present at moonrise.

Another note for anyone that's curious. If you knock out Minthara but still need to return to the goblin camp/temple location during Act I after a long rest, Minthara will still be flagged as neutral. This means that you should knock her out again; just be sure she's *temporarily hostile* before doing so - just pickpocket her or steal something in front of her to flag her as temporarily hostile. Also, make sure you finish your business in the goblin base before a long rest to avoid this. Although I knocked her out twice, she did show up in Act II nonetheless.

You should be able to. You might have trigger he being hostile instead of temporarily hostile when you knock her out

I'm going to attempt this my next playthrough.

Hopefully they patch what is obviously a bug. The ONLY way to recruit her in a good play through (not mentioned here specifically) is to make her TEMPORARILY hostile. Making her hostile by attacking the other leaders first and then knocking her out will result in failure and you won't be able to recruit her.

Glad they saw the community wanted this companion without going evil and losing to greats definitely will be grabbing her

The first game since nights of the Old Republic that I think really hit what should be the standard on RPG stories.

😂 I’m in act 3 of my first play through and missed all of this. I walked in to the Goblin sanctum, and was like, “Well, time to start murdering everyone.” Vaguely remember killing Minthara, but didn’t even realize she had dialogue.

I wish I would have seen this video a few days earlier. I was really sad about slaughtering everyone in the hain and well, had an unwelcoming end with Halsin 😣. But I really wanted to try the evil way and get Mintahra 😁

ok, so, TLDR: Don't speak to minthara at goblin camp, knock her out nonlethally, take out Ragzlin and Gut, free Halsin, progress to Act 2 without returning to interact with Minthara, save her in Act 2 as you would normally. its possible that long resting between knocking out minthara and finishing the goblin leaders quest could prevent this from working.

Does this lock you out of her romance, since you won't have the goblin party scene after the Grove raid?

This is the answer I'm looking for as well!

Save often there's a glitch that starts somewhere in this process at the goblin camp where you end up with a status effect for attacking guards.

Thank you, I was wondering how to do this without attacking the grove.

Question here: When you bring out Minthara this way, are you able to re-enter Moonrise peacefully and for example get the assignment to find Balthasar? This is rather important, since it pushes the storyline rather far and lets you get some additional aids on the way!

Yes, no problem, they didn't know I saved her. However, I needed to keep that as a secret and couldn't re-enter the Moonrise Towers with Minthara in the party if I didn't want the guards to attack.

Ngl loved hearing the FF14 music at the end of this video!

Your voice is very loud compared to that of the gameplay in the video, apart from that, superb! Structured, good explanations which are easy to follow. WP

Good video

Nice video, thank you. Just a question - wouldn't it be smart to go talk to Zrell and get that quest from her before saving Minthara? Otherwise I'm assuming you take her up to Zrell and get that quest and you get attacked on site.

There's no issue with her going anywhere in Moonrise, after her initial recruitment, as long as you're with her. Minthara even has approval bumps for some deception options in your dialogue with Z'rell.

Wow I did not know you could recruit her, I just threw her off the edge in my playthrough lmao. Also Halsin died while trying to free him and people kept mentioning his name, I was so confused

So ive gotten to the goblin camp twice now. First time I attacked the other Leader which made her hostile. The second time I convinced some spiders to eat some goblins, which started a fight straight away xD I was kinda bummed. One day i'll talk to her.

It looks like they went straight up to Minthara (bypassing the other enemies) and knocked her out without talking to her. I think you have to follow the steps in this video pretty closely if you want to recruit her on a non-evil run.

I love the 3 consecutive falls with advantage

I am so happy they did this. It literally made no sense in any way, shape or form that you could not recruit her if you only knocked her out or that there wasn’t an option to capture her or some thing else is part of the quest line, forcing you and pin hole-ing you into a situation of either annihilating, the teaflings for killing a potential companion, with literally no work around between that, weren’t reliant on glitches basically or exploits was a Single dumbest narrative choice, and most forced narrative choice in this entire game that I have ever experienced and what’s more wild to me is when I brought this up on the sub Reddit I got down voted into oblivion by morons who for some reason think it’s good to restrict players Imagination, creativity, and ability artificially for no good reason, locking her behind the annihilation of the Teaflings even though there were several Ways players figured out where you could’ve recruited her both mechanically and narratively without having to annihilate them, it took them a little while to finally cave, but I’m glad they finally got there better late than never as they say. I’m glad Larian saw reason, and didn’t listen to the moronic mob, for some reason had a hard on for forced locking her behind that evil only play through, even though it made literally no sense

WARNING! Do not knock out Sazza when she is by Minthara during her quest. If she is there, you have to kill her, otherwise, her quest won't close and Minthara will be broken and not interactable in Moonrise. Sazza also doesn't respawn like other temporarily knocked enemies so she can't be killed later to prevent this.

Thanks for the warning. I was going to try leaving Sazza knocked out to see if I could get her achievement at the same time, but I want Minthara more.

Sharlayan outro! I approve

Apparently, I knocked her out in my first run by accident, when the game came out and there were no hotfixes because I remember seeing her at the tower after I thought I killed her (or maybe I didn't know she was there because I didn't get Halsin either, lol!). I barely remember my first run.

In opinion, this simply means not being a lawful goof. It's practical to side with all who don't ever wanted to live with tadpole.

Anyone else having problem where you successfully save her from Moonrise and she’s waiting for you back at camp, but after initial line of dialogue she won’t talk to you anymore and therefore you can’t add her to your party? Can’t figure it out.
