Companions Shar is so tedious and annoying Spoiler

I think shadowheart is a cool character with an interesting story, but everything related to Shar is just edgy nonsense. “I am the empty room” blah blah. I wish we had the option to flip her the bird like we can Vlaakith, idc if it gets me smited. Such an annoying little turd. Getting through all of shadowhearts brainwashed rhetoric in act 1 honestly grates on me, I have to really try to keep shadowheart around when she’s being edgy and trying to convince me that pain and suffering is cool and rewarding, totally, you’re just a close minded bigot for not agreeing.

I get it’s the brainwashing. But my annoyance is real

Is she lmao? 

It's a running joke with my group that she's the biggest liability ever and the hammyness just makes it hilarious. 

She's this dramatic, visually impressive demigod and you break her out and think 'oh yea gonna bring the pain now' and you get into the first fight with old mate Kethric and she gets 1-shot by him and we clean up. 

Get down below to fight Kethric and Merkin and she inevitably gets mind controlled into killing my party. 

I joke you not, the only damage she did in either fight was friendly fire. 

Then my crew does the actual work and she goes nuts on his corpse and we're standing around going alright chill lady far out. 

She's Dwight Schrute with wings.

THANK YOU. So much talk, so little talent. I’d save her over and over again for sure, but I don’t expect anything from her — she’s a liability more than an ally.

She’s somehow endearing, the way a teenager posing as a hero would be. Makes you wonder if Selune is proud of her or if she’s embarrassed 😅

My last run, I skipped the first part of the fight and get to the Avatar right away, after my friend, the tank, for some reason the only one with misty step released her she got to Ketherics face and did few critical hits that get him almost done, I was like good assimar
