There seems to be some conflicting information about when, were and how Kivan will leave the party if you don't get to the bandit camp. On the current play I picked him up right around 9 days and just left him off in the pit in the Gnoll Stronghold on day 26.
I've seen people say he leaves if the quest isn't completed in 5 days (which is insane and almost impossible just on travel time alone, never mind resting). I've heard it may be 20 days, or 10, or possibly never if you don't force talk to him during the trip etc. etc. In the 15 days I spent with the quiet archer however, he never said a word about anything. He seems like a hard character to plan around, and while I wanted to keep him in my party longer, I'm also not inclined to kill of Dynaheir right now either. And even if I put him back in the party, there are only 4 days til the magic number of 20 (where apparently he just walks off out of the blue) and being as I'm headed to the mines, I don't really want the unpredictability and the micro-managing of every travel and rest time, and I'd never make it to Chapter 4 in that amount of time anyway.
So what are your Kivan stories, and what is the REAL scoop with him??
