Aha!!!!
Took me like 30 minutes but I was able to figure out what happened. The attack directly after a successful retaliate is sharing the retaliate accuracy. Take Garodh's Chorus off your Ranger and you should no longer see this accuracy fluctuation.
I'll also get a bug in for this, though being so minor we might not get to it.

[Edit] Twinned Arrows combined with Driving Flight is also causing a 10 point accuracy loss every other shot. Adding it to my bug report. We hope to get a fix in a future patch.

Hey Ronin@,
Can you upload your save file so I can take a look?
Thanks

Hey Ronin@,
I'm going to guess you are a Wood Elf and also have the Marksman Talent. This could account for some of the 'randomness' in your accuracy rolls. I'll also give this some love and see if I can figure out why your Twined Arrow shots are rolling different Accuracy rolls. Which should probably never be the case.

Hey knech,
Having multiple instances of PoE up at the same time can cause issues like this. We've taken preventive measures by not allowing players to run multiple instances of the client at the same time. But... people can access different versions of the game simultaneously which pull saves from the same place and will corrupt the data. After this point the saves are not saveable 'no pun intended'. I know this is not the answer you were looking for, but hopefully now that you know the cause for sure you can avoid it in the future.
Sorry

Hey Greldon,
This is a known issue. Currently the biography stops updating after you speak to Calisca about the Springberries. We are hoping to get a fix in for a future patch.

Hey Davaeorn,
No bug, she will appear after your second visit to Stalwart. Transition out of the map and then back in.

Hey Bubbles,
After a little bit of love, I've decided you are correct. The spell is not functioning as intended. It is just doing 10 damage no matter what endurance the enemy is at. My bet is it is trying to pull from the health values (which will always be almost full or not exist). I've put a bug in, hopefully we can get a fix in a future patch.

Hey DMCF,
Can you link me your save file (via Dropbox.com) so I can take a look.
Also you can kill the leaders of all three factions (Doemenels, Dozens, and Knights) to progress in the quest if you do not want to wait for my response.

Hey imacken,
Definitely recommend grabbing Eder (by the tree in Gilded Vale). Not only is he a great tank, his banter is top notch. Also hit up some of the side quests in Gilded Vale before heading through Caed Nua.
Aside from these 'just avoid the problem' suggestions,
some combat tips;
- Switch Kana to his estoc after firing once with his arquebus, try to keep him alive along enough to get a summon off
- Give Durrance some actual armor (DR is your best friend early game). Get an Armor of Faith off as soon as the combat starts.
- Have Aloth/Cipher/Kana's first rifle shot hit the same target and focus it down first
- Assuming you've grabbed Eder (he is like so hot right now) get him infront and spam knockdown.
- There is a pot right when you enter the room, search it before combat.
Good luck adventurer

Hey (you bunch of awe-inspiring gamers)
There a pretty big (and awesome) thread about this topic (Forum Link). Includes a bunch of peoples 'favorite' playthroughs, including a QA approved one .

Hey Corrado33,
There are a few other ways to 'bypass' DR, Rosveen mentioned a few. But, the best way to circumvent an enemy with high DR is to figure out which DR and defense are their lowest. For example; Kith with high DR are almost always wearing plate. Plate armor is 50% vs shock damage.

Hey Achilles,
From your screenshots it seems that only the Grazes are not following our 'best of' rules. I'm going to look into a little bit more and get a bug in.
Thanks for bringing this up
-Sking
Edit - This is actually just a cosmetic issue in the combat log. If the damage you do is so low that both types would be doing the minimum amount then the damage type will not switch.
Example: you attack a dragon with a crush/pierce weapon > you hit for 10 against the dragons Crush DR = 14 and Pierce DR = 10 > you will do x.xx Crush even though Pierce is the lower DR, because either damage type will be the same.

Hey Panda Baby,
That seems to be the only camping supply on the map. Though it is an alternate entrance, so it isn't always after the boss. That being said, I'll see if I can get at least one more placed in there somewhere on the other side.

Hey (you bunch of extraordinary gamers)
Aarik and I finished translating the list yesterday. It has been sent off to our producer for beautification. We hope to get it out later today.
Thanks for all the continued support

Hey Madscientist,
This is a known issue. We have a fix for the 3.02 patch.

I've always felt this kind of mechanic in games to be more of a gate limiting 'open world exploration' rather than something fun. That being said I'm a huge Pokemon fan, so maybe there is something to it.
In Pokémon, to light an area, you have to take one of your pokes and teach it a useless move that can't easily be forgotten, forever crippling it.
PoE has no such restriction.
I'm not the developer, though. So maybe you see things others can't.
I meant more along the lines of areas being blocked by rocks, trees, blackouts, etc.. until you find a certain move/item to progress. To your other point of crippling a Pokemon with the Light move. Most games with light mechanics require a torch/flashlight which can also cripple a character. But like I said, I love those games so maybe there is something cool about the 'pitch black dungeon' aspect of games.

Haha, thanks Brandon. Yeah should be done within a few days.

[3.02] Auto combat start bug
in Pillars of Eternity: Technical Support (Spoiler Warning!)
Posted
That was going to be my guess. Most 'combat not ending bugs' are some NPCs duking it out when they shouldn't be. Thanks for reporting this though, I'll confirm and get a bug in.
