Romances and Bodhi

Remove all ads!

Will romances with Jahiera or Aerie end if you side with Bodhi at chapter 3?

 

The only romance you need is Viconia...cause then you get a little and even if you get a little from the drow priestess in the underdark she doesn't dump ya...

 

AFAIK, no romances end if you side with Bhodi. Th only one that I am unsure about is Aerie.

 

You don't have to be unsure.

If you successfully started the romance there is no way it will be over because of siding with Bodhi.

The only thing that can destroy it from aside is:
- party break because of too high or too low reputation
- attacking Harpers or druids with no reason when you have a romance with Jaheira (she goes hostile - permanently)
- not solving Jaheira curse quest in time when you have a romance with Jaheira (she dies)
- having Keldorn and Viconia in the party till the moment Keldorn attacks her and if he kills her when you have a romance with Viconia

No, Anomen attacking Aerie won't affect it - you'll be able to resurrect her and keep her in the party again.

I said things aside!
Phaere innuendo and Bodhi's turning your lover into vampire is part of romances.
So, please, don't spam on it.

I was in a romance with Jaheira which ended for reasons unknown. None of Extremist's reasons occurred. I *thought* it was because Jaheira had died once (not from the curse) and I raised her.

According to the console, Jaheira romance is active, rating is 56, but when I enter the graveyard (chapter 6) for the fight with Bodhi's vampires, J doesn't get ... altered. Is something wrong? Does this happen later?

 

You're too early at Bodhi's.
56 is not enough. You need to have at least 58 to get the vampirism episode.

To get 58 you need to rest somewhere.

But there is one problem - it is possible that you suffer from Jaheira Romance bug I missed to spot when the R. Guide was written.
The so called "loop".
It happens with some dialogs and one of the critical ones is exactly that one that starts with Jaheira's (LT-56):
"Ah, the dawning of our day, though..."

If that is the problem, I mean, if you got that dialogue more than once, you need to force the next lovetalk from the console with:
CLUAConsole:SetGlobal("LoveTalk","LOCALS",57)

I'm currently making a retroactive fix for the problem since the fix from Baldurdash won't solve the problem if it has already happened. I'll need at least a week for it...*shrug*

You can also "get some" with Aerie. Unfortunately for me, when Phaere gives the invite, I didn't want to turn it down thinking that she'd get pissed and try to kill me. When the next day came Aerie said some stuff about how she didn't know me anymore, even though she was the one that said she just wanted to be friends!! Aerie hasn't spoken a word to me since.

*Sigh* Women...

 

Extremist:

So if I've hit the loop already - I have - then it's too late to fix it by advancing Lovetalk to 57? Because I tried that and left the game on pause for hours and nothing happened.

I also tried advancing LT all the way to 70 - nothing.

I'd be very interested if you came up with a solution. Plus, I don't really have much to kill time with as I've finished most of the quests - I can finish Yoshiro's soul and Kangaxx. I think everything else is done.

 

NOOOOOOOO!!!

Not to 70!!! lol!

Set it on 57 and then you need to rest (press rest button) to trigger that dialog. Not to pause the game...lol

Sorry, I wasn't detailed enough up there.

 

Excellent, thanks. Jumped to 59, finally. Went through the Bodhi encounter and everything went as it's supposed to.
