If you bring him Karlach's head, he will deliver his Sword of Justice. This updates Hunt the Devil.

Anders Notes and Tips
- Notes & Tips
AnonymousSo I'm under the impression this guy doesn't actually use smites as they are in the game, but he's probably coded to just deal extra radiant damage on his attacks, since he seems to not be limited by quantity nor action economy to gain the benefits of the radiant damage that he has. If anyone knows more about it, please let us know.

AnonymousI counted the smites larian. They were 8, this guy hit me with 8 smites before he died. Why does a level 5 have that many smite slots larian? Release his build you cowards!!! Let us see the truth!!!

AnonymousIs it ever explained why this guy says he's a paladin of Tyr when clearly he's not? Tyr would NEVER offer protection to murderers who kill tieflings.

AnonymousKeeping him in my inventory until I find a volcano or a giant blender-like construct.

AnonymousCan someone explain how this guy attacks 3 times in one turn? And how the hell did he smite me 3 times in a row and then cast shield of faith on himself in the same turn?

AnonymousHow is he able to smite on pommel strikes? My paladin can't do that.

AnonymousThis guy is overtuned like crazy. Killing my 41 HP tank in 1 turn is ridiculous.

AnonymousThis guy is literal fodder to help get Karlach geared up. That is the only reason for alternate boosted reward of killing him and his crew, as the sword itself that he drops, is pretty much, word, for word, what Karlach's goals are. Which leads me to believe that Karlach properly classed is a Bar(b)/Pally. Not a bad combo, likely a Vengeance Berserker. Given how far she is in, compared to the other companions, you get access to, outside of attempting the jump between where she is and from back entrance for Zevlors Cave, up the wall and across. It's well worth the risk to recruit Karlach early, especially because of all the approval gains for reasonable people. Even before Wyll. Heck, bring Karlach TO Wyll's recruitment, watch them sparks fly.

AnonymousThis guy divine smited me twice in the same turn dropping two characters. I don’t know if it’s because he has multi attack but that seems like bullshit.

I really wish you could get proof somewhere near that he is lying. Jusr GUESSING who to kill feels really bad.

So I killed this guy because I knew he was bad and it caused my paladin to become an oathbreaker. So Paladins beware
