Maybe I’m mistaken but I’m sure if you pass the persuasion checks telling him “not right now” you can persuade him to stay and he just goes “I’ll figure something else out” and that’s where the story ends in that regard
Either way you get so many magical items in the first act alone (if you 100% it) that sacrificing the 3 that don’t fit your builds is not such a heavy sacrifice
I was only able to persuade him the first time. Then I eventually gave him something. The second time there was no option to persuade, and when I just closed the dialogue, he left. Someone a while ago here on Lemmy posted a screenshot of a letter he will write to you before he leaves if you just ignore him. In the scope of the game, what he asks for is insignificant. When you don’t know about his limit, and he takes the first 3 magic items you find, it is a little painful.
He will leave if you don’t give him anything.
