[Patch 7] Made Recruiting Minthara and Saving the Grove Much Easier in Baldur's Gate 3
In this video, I’ll walk you through how to recruit Minthara in Baldur’s Gate 3 without sacrificing the grove—now made easier thanks to Patch 7. Larian Studios has adjusted things so players can recruit Minthara as a powerful ally without losing key companions like Karlach or Will. I’ll guide you step by step, from navigating the Goblin Camp to freeing Minthara from Moonrise Towers, ensuring she joins your party without unnecessary complications.
Previously, recruiting Minthara required you to sneak through the Goblin Camp and knock her out before she could trigger the cutscene that launches the raid on the grove. If you missed that small window, Minthara wouldn’t appear in Moonrise Towers, and you’d lose the opportunity to recruit her. However, Patch 7 has made things a lot more flexible, giving you multiple ways to approach her and secure her as a party member.
Now, you can interact with Minthara freely—trigger her cutscenes, fight her at the Goblin Camp, or even lure her into the grove. The only thing you need to keep in mind is that she must be knocked out, not killed. Once she’s unconscious, you can loot her gear. One important item to grab here is the Lyre. It’ll play a key role later when you enter the Shadow-Cursed Lands in Act 2.
When you make it to the Shadow-Cursed Lands, having the Lyre makes your life a lot easier. You can show it to the Goblins roaming the area, and they’ll help you gain safe passage to Moonrise Towers. This saves you from having to fight your way through or deal with some of the nastier obstacles lurking in the shadows.
Once you arrive at Moonrise Towers, you’ll witness Ketheric Thorm judging Minthara for her failure. He decides not to kill her but instead orders her to be imprisoned, where her memory and free will are slowly wiped away by two enforcers: Jasin and Sumera.
At this point, you have two options. You can use persuasion or intimidation to convince the enforcers to release Minthara into your care. If that fails, you can fight them to prevent the mind-wiping process from completing. Either way, saving her in time ensures her memories remain intact, and she will be shocked that someone has gone through so much trouble to rescue her.
With Minthara free, the next challenge is getting out of Moonrise Towers safely. You have two main ways to do this. If you prefer a quick exit, you can use a fast travel waypoint to teleport to safety. Alternatively, you can free the other prisoners and escape together on a boat, which will take you directly to the Last Light Inn. This route is a bit more dangerous but adds a dramatic touch to the rescue.
After you escape, a key conversation with Minthara will trigger. She will express her surprise and gratitude for being saved. At this point, you’ll get the option to invite her into your party. If your party is full, you’ll need to dismiss someone temporarily to make room for her. Once back at camp, speak to Minthara again to finalize her recruitment.
Recruiting Minthara offers several benefits to your playthrough. Not only is she a powerful ally with unique abilities, but her presence also adds depth to your experience, especially in later acts of the game. Plus, you won’t have to compromise your morals or sacrifice the grove, making this a win-win scenario.
What’s your take on using Minthara in your party? Do you think she’s worth the effort, or do you prefer sticking with your original companions? Let me know in the comments below, and I’ll be reading through them to see how others are building their teams.
