>>3903720Oh man, co-op chaos. This makes so much sense now. It's good you have Gale. Don't worry, he actually only needs three items and then Elminster comes and stabilizes the orb a bit. There's some pretty useless enchanted items in the game so it ends up not being as big a deal for gameplay as you think, and Gale is useful once he levels out of his squishy and useless phase.
Yeah, this game gives you quite a lot of chances to perma kill or betray people. Can't really blame a person for pulling a stake on Astarion on bite night and being surprised it was that easy to stake him. What a loss, though. He's one of the best characters for a chaos run.
As to Durge... it's a shame they didn't follow through with Durge being a full on Origin character. Durge hirelings wouldn't make sense lore wise.
If you really hate Gale you can actually to tell him to leave after you find out the danger the orb poses. It's really sad, IMO.
