So on my second slog through ToB I decided to pick up Sarevok. Better for the story, I thought. A better combatant than Keldorn, I thought. Here's me expecting lots of heated arguments over the use of Bhaal's blood and so forth, and what did I get?

Absolute bollock-all. Is this right?

Well, I don't understand the meaning of "bollock-all", but since you seem complaining

I did enjoy a lot the dialogues and the conversion of my bad brother. Maybe it was so 'cause I was playing a super-good female char who tried to save even her enemies!
It seemed to me to play Nausicaa (a beautyful manga character, someone knows?)

Make sure you d/l the newest patches..alot of the dialogues get stuck and dont come properly, when I re-loaded an old game with Sarevok and Imoen in the party, they started going off about *spoiler*

Imoen: Getting Bhaal spawn powers and asking you if you feel that same urge to tear people apart and love battle that she has noticed

Sarevok: Proposes that you and he hook up to rule the universe side by side, if you answer the "good" way..that you're not in it to rule over other people..he decides that he should reconsider his ways, as he died once already being the way he was before..and he goes Chaotic Good!

Did you make him swear an oath? A lot of his dialogue revolves around why you didn't make him swear.

However the random banter system is cack.

I did indeed make him swear the oath. Otherwise he'd just pack up and go as soon as he could. Max reputation, see? A curse and a blessing.

Sarevok stays with you, even if your reputation is at 20.

TC, Geert

If you accept without oath, he starts to understand that you have faith in every man after all and in his freedom of choice.
You open the door for his conversion this way.
I think (not sure) that refusing tha oath is a necessary step for this.

FWIW, I haven't asked Sarevok to take an oath; now I'm nearly the end of ToB and have had not a single line of conversation with him. Just his often occuring ranting, "If we were going back to Baldur's Gate, what people would think seeing the two of us together? Hehe..", or something like that. Rather frustrating, I suppose.

The oath have nothing to do with it. The dialogue are extremely random - so they might not ever happen, or run one after the other as soon as you get him. That's the problem with party interaction, they are random.

The oath has a *lot* to do with it. It accounts for 3 of his interactions. Imoen giving him a piece of her soul accounts for another 3.

The last ToB patch stopped evil people leaving if you reps goes high IIRC.

If you have Ascension, his three "non-oath" dialogues are forced before the end of ToB.

Is this with Ascension? Because I looked through the normal dialogue and the oath thing comes up in the dialogue, but does not really have any significant to the dialogue itself.

Edit - didn't see the extra bit about Ascension, make sense now though.
