On my first playthrough, I used Anders for the Deep Road expeditions.  Once back, Bethany was taken away by the Templars.

Reading Gamespot's game guide, they say she must be excluded from your party when you go down the Deep Roads.

So, can I keep her or not?  If there's a way to keep her, assuming I'd want to replay the game, what should I do?

[Comaatil]

Nope, she either dies, becomes a grey warden or a circle mage

[Taleroth]

No. If you take her with you, this just changes the reason she leaves.

bummer. Means I'm stuck with Anders as my mage. The little elf girl is worthless.

i actually manually respeced her toward the end of my last playthru and she turned out to be ok not the greatest but she did the job until i got bethany back at the end.

I actually think the opposite...

WIth Anders my group struggles with big mobs because we aren't killing them fast enough. WIth Merril, we breeze through mobs.

Yeah, Anders is terrible in comparison.

Merrill, on the other hand, is a freaking machine - go full blood mage with her. Dump her points into magic and constitution (none in wisdom), then load up on primal talents. Run her mana at 100% reserve (sustained talents). She's awesome.

Also, about Beth (and Carver). Your choices are thus:
-Don't take them, and they join the circle (Beth) or the templar (Carver)
-Take them, and they die to the taint
-Take them AND Anders, and they become a Grey Warden.

No way around losing them, which sucks because I liked Beth better than that giant tool (Anders).

you need to spec "the little elf girl" better

[Fair34]

Yup. spec the elf better. She's a monster.

[GoldenGreen]

How do I keep her alive? She was my favorite mage!

[Swords Edge]

Merrils good if you give her rock armor ability

What's interesting is at the end of the game, you have Bethany as a choice, so I'm hoping she will function in future DLC options. You can, for example, take her to the Black Emporium in the postgame.

With the "Panacea" branch of his Vengeance skill tree, Anders is slanted towards becoming the healer of your party. Merrill can be very effective if spec'ed right as offense. (I still lol with virulent walking bomb)

If you take her into the Deep Roads then make sure you take stupid Anders with you. I didn't with Carver now my Hawke is all alone.

[Heather Cline]

I should respec Merrill. I rarely ever used her blood mage abilities. Then again I was going a different route on her powers. But yeah will try the blood mage route with her this time around.
