Anyway to do this early in the game? Like for clearing Caed Nua with a level 3 party? I just cleared Caed Nua(enough to unlock the keep anyway) on PotD with a level 3 party. It's a PITA a bit but not too bad with a full party even at kinda low levels. I'm finding it hilarious how useless Eder is though, even with the 1h sword with +damage/accuracy vs. spirits he just does nothing against the high deflection phantom/shadows ugh. And I used it w/out an off hand to see if his accuracy would be good enough to land knockdowns but NOPE. Paladin tank with 65 deflection (though I don't have a large shield yet I really should've grabbed one by now hah). Not great but I managed. Used all the companions + 1 hired adventurer Cipher. I'm rushing to grab companions early. Not sure I'll even use them honestly, but I'll keep a save just to have decent options. Level 4 is when deflection kinda hits the high point since you can have Cautious Attack on top of Weapon and Shield style. um, Eder is easily one of the most useful characters in the game. On potd a LOT of things miss on a fairly regular basis. All Eder needs to do in that situation in engage and not die. That's really the long and the short of it. If you really need the knock down, craft potions of what's-his-face's aim and keep your party back for a few before engaging.
