arrrrr!!!! Jaheira romance/harper frustration! (spoiler)

Post by pooburgler »

ok as for this damn difficult and frustrating Jaheira romance, I just finished the Xzar harper quest and am once again locked out of the harper HQ. I'm getting the feeling that Jaheira is getting ready for the part where she gets called away from the party to go to the harper HQ. From that guide about this that's floating around, it says that this is likely to be triggered by sleeping outdoors in the D'arnise keep area. It also says that I don't neccessarily have to be actively romancing her for this to trigger. So should I head over there and camp out for a couple of outdoor rests? Does anyone have any suggestions as to what I could do to speed up and trigger Jaheira getting called away by the harpers? I want that darn ring of wizardry that you get from one of the "bad" harpers that attacks me when Jaheira brings me back to the harper HQ. This is my 3rd attempt to trigger this particular event and my fingers are screaming to CLUAConsole:CreateItem very loudly!

We need to know a few things, first. Do you have ToB installed? Do you have the most recent patch for it?

The Harper Plot can go one of two ways (SPOILERS):

1) If you are not romancing Jaheira, once you have finished Xzar's quest, Jaheira is called away to the Harper Hold almost immediately.

2) IF you are romancing her, Jaheira will be called away to the Harper Hold once her romance has advanced far enough (LOVETALK > 25) and the Bandit Plot has concluded. The Game is picky about where the Bandit Plot can take place - in general, sleeping outdoors in the D'Arnise area does the trick.
There's nothing a little poison couldn't cure...

What happened here was the gradual habituation of the people, ... to receiving decisions deliberated in secret; to believing that the situation was so complicated that the government had to act on information which the people could not understand, or so dangerous that, even if he people could understand it, it could not be released because of national security.
