I agree with your sentiments that it would be nice to be able to interact with Minthara while playing a neutral or good stance as far as the grove is concerned. But I have experienced on one of my current playthroughs with the conflict with Lae'zel and Shadowhart
They fought to the death and I had to side with one of them, and I had no clue of the trigger that caused it until it happened at camp unexpectedly. This caused me to loose one of them on this playthrough.
. So it might prove difficult to manage such an extreme difference of opinions in code.
In the game, if you go 100% the good option in every quest, Minthara is cool with it, because she's evil from ego not belief in pure evil, so you want to save the puppies? she likes the respect people give heroes who save puppies. She has a way to rationalise good actions. The ONLY action that she judges you for taking is....
the one the game makes you do to recruit her! (and no I'm not acknowledging the work around as it is clearly a loophole not an actual solution to the problem)
We know Minthara works amazingly with a good or neutral stance for the rest of the game, because that is already possible and I've experienced it. So her having a good/neutral stance for the grove goes without saying, she is already opposed to the evil stance on it and she hates the absolute so yeah, and what now a whole tribe of refugees owe the party she's in favours and respect, yeah she'd LOVE that.
Also if this thread is going to be closed for the thing where the threads on this are being closed recently because there are so many all saying the same things please come here to keep discussing it.
