Talk:Shadowheart/Approval
Regarding greetings dialogue
For whom it may concern: I have tested greetings based on approval and it seemed to be consistently reflect that of the approval rating, however when I tested Lae'zels she gave the same greeting regardless of approval (unless negative) and it seemed to change only when in different location or progression/circumstance. -Pandora (talk) 19:55, 20 September 2023 (CEST)
Regarding Shadowheart Approval on PS5
I am playing on PS5, and although I have not tested all Shadowheart approval options, so far most have worked except one:
When speaking to the Gnarled Door in Auntie Esther's house, passing the intimidation Check to "Open Up", after choosing the dialogue option "Alright, is there another way in?" does not give me approval from Shadowheart.
So far, this is the only inconsistency I have found. If I find more, I will update.

If you successfully intimidate Brem to let the artist go (20) then you get approval.
I believe there is an error regarding Shadowheart approval during her quest
In the section regarding her positive approval in her quest in act 2, it states that preying into her mind and saying that you should move on, right before entering the last portion of the gauntlet, would net you +5 approval. From my experience, any attempt to pry into her mind will give you immediate disapproval... 5.22.131.8 21:39, 2 September 2024 (CEST)
- Checked the parsed dialogue files right now. Exactly this dialogue (when SH prays to Shar near the Verge and tells the player about the goddess' instructions, if I understood you correct) gives +5 points if the player agrees. There are some undocumented points of Approval/Disapproval, too, which I will add to the list a bit later.
- Generally, only a failed roll of prying into companion's mind with a Detect Thoughts gives a Disapproval. I can recall only one case (Gale, not SH), when he detests the very attempt to do it, nevertheless of result. Arikel (talk) 05:54, 3 September 2024 (CEST)
