While the list was compiled by going through the game’s initial script, there might be some changes to the script since the game’s updates and patches since launch. With that being said, there are spoilers in the linked Reddit post above.
To upset Gale, players constantly choose to reply to the NPC with “I’m not giving you anything. Not now, not ever“, after he’s done asking the player for a magic item twice. This brings down Gale’s approval by 30 points.
Acquiring the book about the Crown of Karsus and insisting Gale cannot look at it, docks 20 points off Gale’s approval. To bring down Karlach’s approval by 20 points, players must defeat Gortash without having Karlach in their party.
