i knocked her out at the goblin camp without talking
at moonrise i picked my best wisdom option to try and save her... general still sent her away

then i misclicked and aggroed the halforc, winning this fight got me level 8 but i can't return to the tower... mistakes where made which is why honour runs are so fun

i sold items to the vendor, dismissed Karlach expecting Minthara to take her place [opps]

then i decided to fight the sicko torturers which makes Minthara a pet but i still needed to bust the gnomes out

i offereed the guards and warden a fare fight, tossed a few eyes into the void and busted the gnomes out without lossing anyone but i used every single spell doing it

arrived at the inn, took Minthara to camp where she agreed to be my new body guard

i made her a range Ek and locksmith

I have always recruited her but never used her to her full potential. Maybe I need to play a Durge to do that?

in patch 7 knocking her out at the grove will cause all kinds of bugs... the best option is to do it at the goblin camp before talking to her

Thanks !

I still play on 6.9 though, so that was no issue.

It really takes ages to finish a game, I'm at 130 hours now and only just entered act 3.

After 400 hours I still haven't finished it.
