Just recently finished the OC for the first time.

I took Linu for Ch 3-4, and I wish I had tried Grimgnaw instead (disturbing nature and all; I didn't choose Grimgnaw since I was already a melee Monk). My reasoning was that her dialogue is the most entertaining and I thought that I could continue our romance in Ch4. She was fun but really didn't do much of anything. Even the romance was lacking in the very short Ch4. I even had to make her use ranged since she kept dieing using melee.

To be fair, I really didn't need her help much since I was playing a power character (Monk2/Sorc6/RDD10). I had Buffs from my spells, potions, and scrolls/items I found along the way. Linu would die far too quickly in the final battle and, if my buffs were removed, she wouldn't be able to heal me in time anyhow. No problem there, I saved up for a stockpile of Heal potions before Ch4.

Anyhow, I don't think that it matters so much who you take with you as long as you are smart in your approach to the final battle.
