Just told Imoen to do one. Can I get her back easily at a later date? I'm not a newbie, just can't remember how it went 10 years ago :)

    She should stay wherever you left her.

    I hardly ever pick up characters again if I dump them. They'll have been left behind experience-wise and everything by that point, so there's not much reason to do so.

    I just murder them horribly before letting them go so that I can pass on the tearful goodbyes. Or use them as meatshields. When I prepared to pick up Shar-Teel I had Minsc and Dynaheir draw the attention of some basilisks while the rest of the party killed the scaly bastards. We shall never forget what they sacrificed so that we could kill a few wilderness creatures that never bothered us...

    ...Who was that Minsc guy again?

    That's something I really wish they'd implemented in the EE: apparently Dorn, Neera and Rasaad will go to the Friendly Arm Inn if they're dismissed from your party, but everyone else just stays where they are, which means you'd better remember where you left them if you ever want them back...

    Some of you are scared to let your imaginary friend go.
    Let me be your therapist.

    Rasaad goes back to his starting point at Naskel when dismissed.

    Aye I've been pretty torn about dumping her from my party myself. The Roleplayer in me would never leave his sister behind, the player in me is having a really hard time keeping space for her with the new NPCs available. And the Metagamer in me thinks I probably should just force my group into the configuration BG2 starts with.
  • shawneshawne Member Posts: 3,239
    @CutlassJack: To be fair, the roleplayer in you doesn't know she's your sister at the time. Also, think of it as freeing her to have her own adventures, maybe assemble her own party, etc. :)
  • CutlassJackCutlassJack Member Posts: 493

    @shawne: Heh I didn't mean literal sister. I meant we grew up together and she left Candlekeep to look out for me. Plus I feel a little guilty leaving her with Xzar and Montaron at the Friendly Arms. That can't be a good plan.

    My current thinking is to ditch her, Jaheria and Khalid after the Mines. That way she's still with a party people I trust (and are married) and would explain all three of them being together at the start of BG2. As an added bonus, I dont have to listen to Khalid anymore and I'll have room for Minsc. Win Win!

    To stay on topic, I'll just echo what others said, Imoen stays where you left her :)

    I find Minsc's CONSTANT TALKING IN CAPS more annoying to listen to than Khalid's st-stu-s-stuttering, myself. Minsc is way more fun, I'll agree on that, but he's a real earsore after a while.

    I do the same thing. At least with the companions I care about. I dont see it as a 'problem' at all, because it makes sense from both a roleplay and gaming perspective. It makes it much easier to know where you left someone. The inn also seems a sensible place to dump things you dont want to lug around.

    That's so sweet of you... :/

    Now, I would never leave behind Imoen and Jaheira, I just can't... They are like family.
    That Khalid guy, on the other hand... Sometimes I am afraid he could have an accident...

    I actually put both Imoen and Jaheira to good use with my original party - Jaheira was the muscle, and because I was using BGT Imoen stayed a thief/archer throughout (so she fit right back into the group after losing Yoshimo). I'm guessing the EE will default her to dual-classed mage, though, and there's just no room for a third mage in my group...

    No room for a 3rd mage? You can never have too many mages. lol
