Hello soldiers!

I already reported this to Larian via support ticket, but I also want to know if there are others with this or a similar problem and if there is probably some workaround I havn't figured out yet.

Thing is: With patch 6 I wanted to start another run with my main character (Drow, Warlock). Just enjoy those new juicy smooches and being Dark Urge this time.
But Karlach will always be the girl I'm going for with my main character, so I started like I always did with my Karlach romancing runs.

Did everything so she is happy and I'm gaining approval, got her her first upgrade, told her I feel sorry for still not being able to touch her. Was flirty and everything else.
Until Goblin Camp I still had no cut scene where she joined my bed roll at night to show me the stars, if you know what I mean. >:)
Approval was something like 80+ already at this time. So I thought maybe something has changed. I did Goblin camp quests, joined TIefling party afterwards and told her there, that I really like her.
Like it should be, she told me that she will join me later. But still nothing. I did several long rests afterwards, no cut scene. I did also enough long rests before that to make the cut scene possible.
It just won't trigger.

Since I'm playing with mods, I thought maybe there's the problem. So I reached out to some friends, some also playing with mods, some don't. But it seems that there's no difference if there are mods or not.
Some have this exact same problem (mod and no mod), some don't have a problem with Karlach scenes triggering, but with Gale's. Or Lae'zel's.

Do you also have problems like that and perhaps you know what I could try?

Oh, perhaps I should say, that on my very old safe files (first run with my main), I loaded the cut scene files with Karlach and they're all working.

Thanks for reading my text wall, really appreciate it. shadowheartgiggle

Bye Bye for now!

So, I don’t ever recall getting Karlach’s romance scene on my current playthrough, and I took plenty of long rests throughout Act 1. I had medium to high approval with her and she stayed in my party. I wasn’t trying to romance her though.

I was actually really surprised that Lae’zel’s romance dialogue took a LOT longer to trigger than usual, and I was afraid that it wasn’t going to at all. She had been at high approval for a while, and nothing. Thankfully it did at last. Idk what’s going on with this game right now, lol.

Did you get the option to choose who you wanted to spend the night with at the tiefling party? Normally the option comes up once you turn in for the night and you can select a name.

Just coming in I did mention this on another thread I was doing everything for Karlachs approval and got the invite for her to find me and then nothing and got nothing on her 2nd upgrade so I am in the friend zone in act 2 because of it.

I had this on Xbox X about a week ago

I did, yes. And since I havn't got the cut scene with her yet until that point, I was hoping for that option. At the tiefling party I told her that I like her and she told me, that she'll join me later when everyone is asleep.
I chose the option to spend the night with her, but even with that there was no cut scene. Just the usual long rest scene where everyone is asleep.

@Ghostsecurity29:
Oh dang, if you're having the same problem on Xbox it's clearly not mod related. Just hoping that Larian is aware of it and there'll be a fix for it soon. smirk

Same as previous poster's quote above. Patch 7, and Patch 8. Always kept Karlach in my party, even recruiting her before I speak/interact with any thing or person in the Emerald Grove, except for forced scene of Zevlor argument with another Tiefling. Seems like bug has not been fixed for a long time >1 year...based on Internet search anecdotes.
