Well like you said, most of your current party is made up of inseparable duos, and it is probably not in your best interest to lose two party members for one. However, there are a few ways to ditch one NPC without his/her counter-part leaving as well. First, you can lock the undesired NPC in the closet, so to speak, by selecting that NPC and having them enter a secluded building or area that you will not use again. Then reform the party dropping that NPC from your party. He/she will not be around to talk to you about your decision to drop them, so then their counter-part will have no reaction either. Be sure you never enter that particular building or area again though, since they will then confront you and their companion will get angry and leave. But as long as you leave the NPC stranded his buddy will never know the difference.
A second method is simply to stage a convenient "accident" where the undesired NPC ends up dead. This can easily be accomplished by stripping the NPC of all his/her equipment and placing them at the front line in the next battle. Yes it's tragic and their counter-part will mourn the NPC's death... but they'll get over it ![]() Now you are free to add a new member to your party! Brawen, the cleric you find at the carnival, is a pretty good cleric in my opinion. Jaheira is alright, but I never liked her snooty attitude. --Darkman |

That is exactly what i did to form my party, i sent Minsc and Khalid wandering off into a pack of gnolls and they met their untimely demise. Now my party is me, (Fighter) Ajantis, Branwen, Jaheira, Imoen, Dynaheir. Only thing that sucks is the constant complaining from jaheira and branwen when you get your rep up to 20. this party gives a great number of cure light wounds as well.

I always went str8 to High Hedge after Beregost and killed Khalid for Kivan. I never liked Ajantis for some reason....
Why on earth did you want rid of Minsc? |

I was thinking of offing someone.....seems a little strange...but not a bad idea. I was thinking of trying to get Branwen for Jaheria. Does this make sense? Im in Chap. 2, and I like having the three fighter types, a cleric, mage, and thief. I dont know about these other dudes yet (Ajantis/Kivan) but I imagine I'll have another dilemma later.....

Brawen for Jaheira is a good trade off in my opinion. Brawen makes a better cleric with her higher wis stat, and is a pure cleric (not multi-class) so she will level up faster than Jaheira. But Jaheira isn't bad either and she will do more damage being half-figher and having slightly better strength.
Kivan is an elven ranger found in High Hedge who makes a great archer. You may not need another archer though since you are a ranger yourself and are probably fairly proficient in the bow as well, but it could be nice to have an extra archer around for at least a while... ![]() --Darkman |
