Whilst Exploring the dungeon in Stormwall Gorge my party got a little beat up, so after valiently slaying a huge spider and its minions I decided to save the game, incase I encountered more gribbleys on the way to rest. But a few steps later my party was set upon by a room of specters and slaughtered in their weakened state. I loaded the latest save and suddenly the stupid mage collapsed and then a window appeared saying 'The Party Has Died' and I'd have to load it again... only for the stupid mage to pass out again and it repeats.

I loaded the save once more and paused it with the mage in mid feint and loaded a quicksave  I had from earlier. This save ran fine and I continued, I killed the spider again and quicksaved, this seemed fine after loading the quicksave to be sure. I then went to banish the spirits from the next room and succeeded, I saved once more and continued, the next room of specters killed my party and I loaded the previous save, again the mage collapsed and the party apparently died.. while still on their feet.

 

I re-loaded the previous quicksave and tried again, quicksaving after I defeated the first room of specters again. this time when loading the quicksave the mage began to collapse here as well. so now all of my saves consist of a dying mage and a party death....

 

 

steps:

1) kill big spider in Stormwall Gorge dungeon

2) Save Game

3) Die heroicly in your quest

4) Load Save after death

5) See the pathetic mage collapse to the floor

6) Recieve message that the entire party has died

7) Rinse and repeat......

 

Expectation:

Mages should have more stamina for adventuring! and should not die of terror at the sight of some dead spiders.

Yeah, I've had the same issue multiple times today and it's utterly game breaking.

 

Seriously hope this is picked up on, but I imagine it's kind of hard to miss.

i have found no place or vendor from which to buy camping gear anywhere, havn't found any in the world either. not sure if thats a bug or by design. have you had any luck or should I report that along with a string of missing executables I encountered today?

Camping supplies are for sale at the inn from the bartender.
