Larian’s Baldur’s Gate 3 features a deep and complex romance mechanic. The game lets you develop connections with other characters and even delve into a physical relationship with them. However, there are only a handful of characters that you can approach and flirt with.
Minthara is one of the Goblin leaders who can be found inside the Goblin Camp of Shattered Sanctum. As she isn’t part of your companions, you need to gain her trust and gain higher approval to develop a deeper relationship with her. In this Baldur’s Gate 3 Minthara romance guide, we’ll dive into ways to win the affection of Minthara and possibly end up making love with her.
How to win Minthara’s affection in Baldur’s Gate 3

In order to initiate romance with Minthara in Baldur’s Gate 3, you will need to get into her good books by getting high approvals from her. While Rescuing the Druid Halsin, you’ll stumble upon three goblin leaders in the Shattered Sanctum, Minthara being one of them.
Further talking will reveal her plan to attack the Tieflings at Emerald Grove. But as she is clueless about their location, you can take the first step and give her the information about the location to get into her good book. Although betraying the Druids and Tieflings will earn approval from Minthara, it will also result in disapproval from Shadowheart, Gale, Wyll, and Karlach. After siding with Minthara and the goblins, a quest named ‘Raid the Grove’ will trigger, which will lead to recruiting Minthra as a Companion in Baldur’s Gate 3.
According to the plan, go to the entrance of the Druid Grove and convince Zevlor about being on their side. In the meantime, get ready to give Minthara a telepathic signal to raid the Grove with her goblin army. After allowing Minthara and her army, you need to help them kill everyone in the Grove, including Zevlor, Tieflings, and druids.

Once you successfully raid the Grove, return to the Secluded Chamber and initiate a conversation with Minthara. As everything happened according to her plan, she’ll thank you and tell you to meet her in your camp.

After going to the camp, again initiate a conversation with her and choose “Yes. I’m yours, Minthara.” Like other companions like Shadowheart and Lae’zel, romancing with Minthara is also the same after this part. Click on your bedroll and select Minthara as a partner for the night, leading to an intimate scene between you and Minthara.

- You cannot recruit Halsin as your companion, even though you rescued him from the Goblin Camp.
- Wyll and Karlach will leave your party.
- You’ll get disapprovals from Shadowheart and Gale.
