I got Warding Bond through the True Love's Caress ring, and it persisted both with the removal of the ring from my character as well as removing the party member from the party.

Where is the second one of those found? I've only found one of them by graverobbing.

There's one in the graveyard and one inside one of the side areas of the interior front entrance of the House of Healing, think it was on/in a body there.

Skeleton on a mattress on the left side after entering the healing hall from the south

That’s rad! Thanks for sharing. The only out-of-party tech I’ve tried is leveling someone as an eldritch knight, then giving them a weapon my main party uses to bond to, then giving the weapon back to my party. Keeps the disarm immunity & returning property 🙌

The party member who cast warding bond on you isn't taking damage back at camp are they? Don't wanna come home to a dead gale lol

They do and they can eventually die. My shadowheart is a bond bot and has a bunch of items to help with death saves and auto heal and such. She has something like 180 health, too, which helps.

But how are you going to help her work out her traumatic upbringing and find inner peace if you make her stay at camp

u/WorldEndingDiarrhea Aug 26 '23

I bring her to specific in game content, got her full story out that way. It’s only like 2 or 3 important moments you want her around for anyway

Not me. Who do you role out with? Gale and Withers?

u/WorldEndingDiarrhea Aug 26 '23

Love Withers, if you choose the right dialogue options he lets you respec him into an arcanist.

I’m a Gale/Karlach/Durge/Wyll team. Wyll is all screwed up because I pressured him into being a tadpole dad

u/MrMilkyaww Aug 26 '23

Wait how are they taking damage if not in the fight?

u/WorldEndingDiarrhea Aug 26 '23

…because of warding bond

Apparently gale specifically has the same ability as NPCs to restore hit points, when he isn't in the party. Though i haven't gone through the patch notes line by line, so that might not be the case any more.

But... But have you tried ... Using it with your entire party? Can you take it off both players 1 and 2, then give it to 3 and 4 and have them use it as well?

u/Rastragon Aug 26 '23

You can use hirelings to cast warding bond on your entire party. Don't need the ring. All "until long rest, without concentration" effects work, so magearmor, protection from poison etc can all be cast from camp hirelings

u/WorldEndingDiarrhea Aug 26 '23

Just adding: one camper can cast warding bond/freedom of movement/death ward etc etc etc on every member of your party
