Players of Baldur’s Gate 3 are missing out on an exceptional ally who deserves recognition. While popular companions like Shadowheart, Lae’zel, and Karlach dominate discussions, one player is advocating for Jaheira to receive the attention she deserves.
Jaheira, a Druid, can be recruited during Act Two of the game. The original poster on Reddit expressed their admiration for her well-developed character, engaging dialogue, and essential role in the party, even with another Druid, Halsin, available.
Many players agreed, with over 1,900 upvotes and 1,000 comments supporting Jaheira’s underrated status. Personally, I found her versatility invaluable, as she could cast spells, transform into a beast, and summon Elementals to bolster our party’s strength.
In the later stages of the game, Jaheira’s transformation into a Water Myrmidon allowed for strategic positioning and devastating attacks. She became the MVP of my party during the campaign’s conclusion.
While Jaheira may not be a romance option, she certainly deserves recognition and appreciation for her contributions to the game.
