From what I understand Korgan in a good-aligned party is just a bad idea ;) I think that goes for any evil-aligned character though...

@Drakron: Anomen & Jan? Is that so? Which Anomen? I had no trouble with Anomen (the one with *ahem* 12 WIS) and Jan...

Well, I guess that solves the question wether or not to put Keldorn In my party since i want Viconia as my cleric.
Darn Shame though :(

Both Anomen I think, jan just keep making jokes about him and Anomen will eventually get feed up with that and do the cristal sphere know as Toril a favor and kill him.
How long does it take I dont know, after all I have seen people with saying that they have Viconia and Keldorn in the party and are going to take then to ToB.

In the GameBanshee BGII section there is a NPC part and it has most of the arguing pairs(if not all of them). The Minsc and Jan one looks really cool.

I have minsc and edwin in my party and they don't say a word to each other. I keep them far apart though. I'm not quite sure if that helps or not but I haven't had any problems with them so far.
Very well, hi-ya

Well, the dialogues are pretty random anyways....
It can ( and will if they stay together long enough ) happen, that is the main problem but if you dont keep the two together for long....
I read here that someone try to keep Viconia and Keldorn in the party by reloading if the dialogue show up but it show up again and again.

Jan and Anomen is funny though, if you haven't had Jan in your party you should try it, he is IMO the funniest npc. To me the most serious problem was Korgan and Aerie.

There is also a patch on the Tweaks and Cheats page of Baldurdash that disables all of these conflicts and also allow evil NPCs to stay even if your rep gets above 18. Sir Kalthorine Happy Script, or something like that, I can't remember the exact name.

Hmm.. Yes it is there... last time I visited Baldurdash tweak/cheat page it wasn't there... It means only that I will have to prepare version of these happy scripts with my improved jaheira's romance script.

thanks for info

Drak: Hi :) Hmm...I had the 'good' Anomen and Jan in my party the entire time. They had problems to begin with, but seemed fine after Anomen found inner peace. But, then, my Anomen in that game was buggy so maybe it was just 'my' game. :)

Everyone will get annoyed with the chaotic neutral guy. Its just the nature of that alignment. I dont think the others will fight them, have never encountered that. Anomen will also fight Aerie if he fails knighthood.

I think there's also some problem if you have Haer'dalis and Aerie in a party, while the latter is involved with you. As I recall, Haer'dalis actually challenges you to a duel for her favors. As I haven't run Haer'dalis, I can't say if this is accurate, or what the various outcomes might be.
