    [​IMG] I just finished the find montaron<sp> quest, and following the walkthrough I have, it says I am to be contacted by a harper who takes Jaheira away.

    This seems to not be happening right now.

    Not only this, in my walkthrough I downloaded from sorcerers, it says when you rest ourdoors bandits come and try to take Jeheira away. It never happend either.

    My walkthrough is the most detailed one I could find, over 250 pages.

    My question I guess is what am I doing wrong for the Harper Quests.

    Thank you for looking at this message and I would really appreciate the help.

    Yours truly

    I think you need to be in a romance with Jaheira for this to happen.
    It should say this on the walkthrough does it not?
    Or are you in a romance with her? If so just wait, it will/should happen soon.

    I believe that the Harper quest is unrelated to the "thugs in the wilderness". The latter is part of a romance.

    It's a very common bug with Jaheira's romance, the ToB-patch fixes it, but if it has already happened then it might be more tricky...

    If you are NOT romancing J, then the harper, Meronia, will show up right after Xzar's death.

    If you are romancing J, then Meronia will show up after completing the bandit-quest. To complete the bandit-quest you must first have had lovetalk 25 (starting with: "This is a dangerous life we seem to lead..."), after you have had this, then travel to D'Arnise Hold or Windspear Hills and sleep OUTSIDE.

    Note that this is the only way to complete both the harper-quests and Jaheira's romance.

    The bandits will show up in any nondungeon, noncity.

    Well, if memory serves me correctly, and it might not, but anyways, I bought Jaheira the locket from the merchant at the docks. I dont remember if we had that initial conversation that was referred to above.

    I will try to sleep outside and see what happens, worst comes to worst I dont have the romance with Jaheira.

    If anyone has some more info for me or any ideas, please let me know.

    Thank you once again

    Meronia will also appear right when you 'end' a romance with Jaheira (if you're outside). I was clearing the De'Arnise keep after finishing the find Montaron quest, and I told Jaheira not to bother me during one of the love talks (I had previously been nice to her). Meronia then immediately appeared. All this happened during a battle, too :rolleyes: .

    Strifestrike, huh?

    Global outside??

    Please explain, thank you.

    I was wondering as well is there an effect by your reputation in performing the Jeheira/Harper quests.

    If your reputation is too high then will Jeheira not be inclined towards you.

    I really recommend the excellent romancing guide from Extremist. You find it here on sorcerers in the game section.
