If Aloth could hit Shadows without Eldritch Aim (also potion), he should be able to hit Shades with it. They have relatively high deflection as you noted and there are only 2 ways around it: buff and debuff.

also following this chart: http://orcz.com/Pillars_of_Eternity:_Monster_Strengths_and_Weaknesses they are weak to Fortitude attacks so re-check your options.

Can you give me an example of a fortitude attack?

Having trouble with the games combat on POTD, Trial of Iron?

Despite what I may post, I'm a huge fan of Pillars of Eternity, it's one of my favorite RPG's.

I'm pretty sure that some or all knockdown attacks are fortitude attacks, and I think prone reduces defense and reflex both, so then you could hit with other attacks.  I'm not sure about Eder's prone attack because it doesn't say if it attacks fortitude or not, but I know the monk attack force of anguish is a fortitude attack.

 

To bad it's only 2 uses per encounter even if it does attack fortitude, i'm sure there are other things you could use that attack fortitude as well though.
