I’m currently slow going through BG3 with many different playthroughs (as you do when you can’t decide on a player character). I’ve noticed that evil characters are locked out of what seems like the majority of companions though. Does anyone know the complete list of the companions available to evil characters are?

So far, I know the following are probably locked out:

  1. Minsc
  2. Jaheria
  3. Wyll
  4. Karlach
  5. Halsein

Evil gets Minthara, but is that it?

  • On this note, does anyone have experience with Minthara later in the game? Does she even have a companion quest chain like everyone else? From what I’ve read her interactions are more limited compared to other companions.

      Most of the way through Act 2. She definitely seems like she was hastily wallpapered over to cover up missing content. She doesn’t have an entry in the companion quests, has a dialogue tree to get her thoughts on other companions (instead of just chiming in like the others do), and cuts off the romance with a “perhaps we will lay together again.”

      Someone on Reddit did say that they were told Minthara missing content is a bug when they submitted a support ticket, so I’m putting my evil run on pause until a few more patches.

      I’m very late into act 3 and she has completely stopped talking and is stuck with one dialog response if you manually speak to her (cannot even remove from my party) since coming in to act 3, so I would believe the note from the other poster that it is a bug. She hasn’t had nearly as much content as any of the other companions by a long shot.

      Trying to figure this out too. She just told me to meet her at the tower.
