Baldur's Gate 3: How to Recruit Minthara in Patch 5 (Good Playthrough)

Baldur’s Gate 3 patch 5 is full of fixes and new content. One of the biggest additions being that you can now recruit the Drow Paladin, Minthara, without the need to eliminate the tieflings and druids of The Emerald Grove in a murderous spree. In this video, we'll show you exactly the steps need to get Minthara in your party.

The classic "if she didn't see it, it didn't happen" approach. Nice.

[AngelXterror]

Simple way to do it. Have someone talk to her, then have another party member attack her. There you go, she's temporarily Hostile. Just toggle on non-lethal damage and knock her out.

[nathanielcovey]

Temporarily Hostile is the key. If you don't do that part correctly she still won't show up after knocking her out. Did this 3 times before figuring it out.

[HANNIBALro]

yes but if you kill the tieflings she will 69 you. so they're all dead in my playthrough

[Chippaization]

knocking her out should have always been the requirement

[bananaana]

It’s not very difficult. Talk to halsin, make sure he is not following you. Get rid of priestess gut in her room. Knock out minthara, kill dror ragzlin. Talk to halsin again.
Find minthara in act 2 at moonrise towers, help her escape

[MrTrashRat]

For people who are scared they did it wrong! Make sure when she is knocked she doesnt have a parasit thing in her when looted. If it isnt there shes still alive

[BirdsFlyinHigh]

Thanks for taking all her clothes off for the cut scenes. A true man of culture.

[kalohaggard]

They should have gave all the sheepthara vets an achievement for doing all that nonsense.

[havocgr]

She is like "those damn adventurers stole my armor" lol

[ASoberBear]

As a lover redemption arc Drows it makes my heart happy to know we can save her.

[mr.lonewolf]

RPGs will now evaluated as before BG3 and after BG3. Genre defining moment

[epicadventureturtle]

So wait, instead of knocking her out when you clear the camp, you have to aggro her before meeting halsin, knock her out, then do the whole halsin thing without long resting inbetween? Feels to me like they tried to fix the sheep thing, then this happened, they gave up and told everyone this is "intended".

[leonlee]

Minthara needs another patch, fight me about it. lol

[greas]

Kind of a dumb way to implement it, just allow us to knock her out during the quest to clear the goblin leaders.

[CBreezie]

Do Minthara and Halsin have dialogue with each other?

[blueseeker]

I'll get her in my 2nd playthrough..

[ItsJustFox]

I've tried this 3 times and it's yet to work for me. Does this have to be the absolute last thing you do before going into Act 2?

[SergeantBeckett]

what if you knock minthara out, kill the other two leaders, and then return and she's gone?

[ascel]

Did all this except check for "temporarily hostile" and she doesn't show back up in moonrise tower. 😒😒
