Being forced to use Safana in SoD. (The alternative, playing blind without a rogue, is unacceptable)
Her voice annoys the heck out of me.
I think you can replace her with Glint pretty early on. That's what I did. Unless you find him annoying, too. Then it's the lesser of two evils, take your pick, I guess.
@BelgarathMTH and @megamike15 , thank you, that's good to know! I'm still in the starting dungeon of SoD, I'm playing NWN for the moment. I only remembered because I transferred the save files from tablet to PC.
Safana wasn't that bad. Were it not for the metagame knowledge of the stunt she pulls in BG2, she would have been fine. I was more irked by the fact that Imoen dumped my PC for extra tutoring, despite the fact that she was just as powerful a mage at that point.
her stunt in bg 2 is why they could not really do anything with her.
she can't have a full on romance because she is gonna be with coran in 2.
this is funny as beamdog made such a big deal about fleshing her out. if anything they just made her more annoying and not worth using.
True, but on the upside, at least she didn't suck as a thief. I just tried to erase the metagame knowledge and play with her in the party as if I had no idea and she turned out to be a competent party member. I will give Beamdog credit for one thing - They successfully fleshed her out in a way that makes what happens in BG2 FAR less of a surprise.
@ThacoBell , after my recent experiences with a bug upsetting a minimal reload run, I don't feel like trying another one for a while. But thank you for the information.
I didn't use Safana in BG1 or 2. It's not that I'm displeased with her thieving skills, I only use them to scout and to disarm traps, and open locks that I have a good reason to open.
I just don't get along very well with Chaotic Neutral, and her permanent "Seductress mode" voice was getting on my nerves.
I get annoyed by the absence of the exit button on android. I still manually force quit the app. If i am done with something I want the power to shut it down.
It used to be there but was removed because apple had a policy to not have exit buttons and let the app manager kill background apps when needed, but why they also ported it to android is a large question I still have.

Hardcoded ability bars.
@Arvia I believe there is a mod that let's you keep Imoen for the intro dungeon.
"Pro" tip - use hotkeys for the thieving abilities

Silence, 15' Radius especially.
To the rescue! The Portable Cone of Silence. Perfect for those parties that include both Safana and Ajantis!
i can't keep safana in my party for very long. she is just so annoying in sod have to ditch her as soon as possible.
