Who are the recommended companions?
>>
>>737560347
I'm quite fond of Sebille
Wasn't a fan of Lhose
Fane was ok

Haven't tried the others
>>
>>737560347
Duo Lone Wolf Fane Lohse, kill the rest
>>
>>737560347
Lone Wolf, but take Red Prince with you.
And be a skeleton lizard witch.
>>
>>737560347
play as fane, sebille and beast have the best stories
>>
>>737560347
For me it was Sebille Lohse and the dwarf.
Never finished Act 3 though.
>>
>>737560347
I always go with Assasin Sebille because the chicken mode is just too good and Red Prince 2H. Also, don't level up heal, just go lifesteal.

And people say that you need to go full physical or magic, but I always liked 2 mages and 2 warriors.
>>
>>737560347
>Lohse
Simply one of the best storylines with the most insight into multiple territories of the world. Great pay-off and banger bossfight.

>Sebille
Shit dynamic in the beginning but as your main char you get elf abilities, corpse eater and a strong and emotional revenge story to larp in. Going out and doing what's necessary to kill your master is FUN. You also get thrown little antagonistic little surprises here and there that are fun in coop and encourage sou to just work a little behind your parties back.

>Beast
Bad Story but absolutely charming personality. Feels like having a paladin on your side, someone that still believes in the good of the world and someone who has an actual noble goal.

>Red Prince
Starts as an asshole but becomes your best bro later in the game. Great VA, Personally and the right amount of wit to be funny at times. He's probably one of the best written characters that changes his attitude the most during the adventure.
>>
>>737560347
Lohse because I crave sloppy toppy from a mentally ill woman
>>
>>737560347
I liked Lohse and Red Prince
Fane is okay, it has some good parts
Ifan I don't even remember what the fuck it was about
Didn't try Sebille or Beast
>>
uninstall wizard
>>
Lohse and Fane are the only relevant ones for the plot.
Sebille, Beast and Red Prince give you more insight into their respective race stories, of which the only one that actually matters is Sebille's honestly.

Ifan fucks you like a dog and swallows.
No other redeeming value. Guess he gives more dialogue with... The church people? Which nobody cares about, even the game forgets them halfway through.
>>
>>737560530
>fane
because you should have at least one deathfog immune character
>sebille
cool personal questline
also as a ratkiller kerillian's voice brings me joy
>lohse
proto raphael, cool questline and probably the most production value
>>
Fane lohse sebille was my party, i was ifan

fane has too much lore not to take with you, sebille is hot and lohse has a kino questline (the candles, if you know you know)
>>
Sebille or Lohse MC? Which do I pick? I don't want to make an OC.
>>
>>737562348
Who the hell plays an RPG and doesn't make their own character?
>>
>>737560347
>Fane as MC
>Sebille
>Red Prince
>4th slot is a free pick
>>
>>737562348
sebille is more fun because elves can eat body parts to get a ton of free skills

>making an OC in larian game
>>
Red Prince and Lohse
Fane and Sebille are good too.
>>
>>737562542
>incapable of writing a single sentence in full
Ah, retarded. Well that explains it.
>>
>>737562542
Well yeah
My oc must romance the frog, obviously
>>
>>737560347
Lohse is you are not building magic or if you are just make her water magic for healing. Plus her side quest story is the best and has a big pay off

Ifan has a revenge story but it moves so slow that you will forget he is there until like 2/3 into the plot were he finally tells you about his story and then you forget. Good for range damage from the get go

Fane is actually kinda relevant for the ending and has an ending of his own. Since he is undead healing hurts him and poison heals him and he is immune to death fog. So you can abuse that if you bring death fog barrels from the tutorial

Beast is....idk. no one remember him.

Red prince is a douche who then evolved to be your bro. Has an interesting quest line.

Honestly OP best thing you can do is NOY make your OC and instead play with one of them and download the mod that allows for all the companions to join your party so you can do all their stories in one run and play on hard to balance out the 2 extra companions when fighting

I really should do that for BG3.
>>
Did anyone else jerk off to the red prince impregnation scene?
>>
>>737562983
Not needed, in bg3 they can all join you, you simply cannot go out of camp with all of them at the same time

I really liked Ifan voice actor
>>
Play Ifan
Fuck the red Prince
Tell him you are ok with being his side ho

Accurate to character
>>
>>737560347
Ifan is my bro, I wanted Lohse to be my waifu since blue eyed redheads are a cute and she was schizo and i wanted to fix her. But then the game never lets you fix her, she remains schizo, and you can't stay with her in the end while the game forces Sebille romance onto you despite me not wanting the ugly lanky hapa/latinx femdom elf. Humiliation ritual the game.
>>
>>737560347
BE WARNED: Fane gives you lore spoilers right at the beginning of the game for things you are supposed to learn much later.
>>
>>737565497
I don't mean RIGHT at the beginning of the game, but early if you are talking to him as a companion.
>>
>>737565130
>I wanted Lohse to be my waifu, she was schizo and i wanted to fix her
> But then the game never lets you fix her

I am pretty sure you can, just kill the demon that is possessing her. You can find him in act 3 iirc but it's a pretty hard fight on higher difficulties.
>>
>>737565734
For someone with 0 context in the setting it doesn't make much difference
>>
>>737560347
OC as main character. Sebille cause she is the goth tortured girl that needs someone to trust and love. You literally fix her, truly the highest of fantasies. Lohse as a good friend and trusted companion with a sense of humor even in the darkest of days. Red prince because I like to see rich boy squirm and whinge at the beginning but then grows as a person as the journey goes on. Ifan can get bent, don't care for him, same for the dwarf. Fane is ok but wouldn't take him over the others.
>>
>>737565497
it's annoying that he kind of has main character syndrome
he's best played as the player character
>>
>>737566140
it's not that hard of a fight when she's in the party bc he completely focuses on trying possess her permanently instead of attacking
as long as you have some method of obliterating his armor on the first turn it's not that bad
>>
>>737560347
I recommend getting the mod to expand your party and take all of them, they all have compelling storylines and/or great personalities, get a mod for higher difficulty if it makes the game too easy for you
>>
>>737567329
don't remember how the fight goes beat for beat but I think that if you let him possess her you lose Lohse, plus he isn't alone in the fight. the way I did it was teleport all his goons next to eachother then used the multi boulder geomancy spell. they all get hit by multiple instances of damage since the boulders are aoe. if not instakill that way the definitely 80% there.
>>
last party I played with was
Play Red Prince
Beast
Lohse
Sebille
I like Fane but healing with poison is pretty inconvinient.
>>
>>737567765
that's basically all there is to it, you just need to CC him on turn 1 so that his possession spell doesn't go off on the next turn, and then keep disabling him every other turn while you take care of the adds
>>
>>737562542
The dark urge is an OC and the optimal way to play
>>
>>737562542
Cute frog.
>>
>>737568004
The dark urge is a good middleground. He has a clear backstory and an explicit personality previous to the mindwipe, but is right now free for you to RP however you want
>>
the ending of lohse's quest is the best of any of them but her personality was super grating at first
red prince is a bro
>>
>>737560347
Don't play whatever character you actually like.
Playing as him turna him into a blankstate with no voiced lines or inner monologue
>>
>>737560347
>plot related
Fane and Ifan are both heavily involved in the central plot, Beast is heavily involved in the most prominent side mission, Sebille connects to a sort of important side mission, while the Red Prince and Lohse are fairly disconnected
>source powers
Fane's is ludicrously powerful. Red Prince's is always useful, Sebille and Lohse's are situational, while Beast's can either be very good or practically useless depending on how you build him. Ifan's is basically worthless
>likeability
pretty much entirely subjective, though I will say Sebille's recruitment is easily the worst of all of them and she improves very quickly afterward. Personally I almost always run with the Red Prince because he's a complete bro, and while I kept Sebille because of my rat/dreadfu, she grew on me even without her being the body part disposal unit.

it's also worth noting that if you grab Fane, enemies will always know he's undead and target him constantly with healing spells. I tend to make him a necromancer most of the time rather than bothering learning poison spells just for him
>>
>>737568851
>Beast is heavily involved in the most prominent side mission
yeah, i don't know why some people online say he's irrelevant to the plot, the dwarf subplot is by far the most important subplot, more than the elf and lizardmen subplots
>>
>>737568304
I found it basically identical to Revan from KotOR. Pretty good trope.
>>
>>737570128
I suppose it's because he doesn't add much perspective to it. He makes it more personal, but he only reinforces that Justinia devolved into being a paranoid tyrant.
