I have recruited Minthara using the new method, but either she has very little content, or it bugs her dialogue. The only dialogue she had was the conversation that starts when clicking on her, and then you can ask her opinions on companions. She also had some 'one liner' comments that companions sometimes have in different areas. But there were no camp scenes, no dialogues with other companions, and no comversations where she would approach my character.
Tbh, it wasn't worth the effort, because she plays like a hireling this way.
