I started more than one game just to make sure. The AI behavior does not work on hard unless classic is chosen before getting all the companions and then switching to hard. I switched to Hard early and now Xoti is bugged forever. 

Hello aqeelus,

 

Thanks for your post and sorry for the long response time, we are working to get to all our players as best we can. I'll be sure this issue gets bugged if it has not been entered into our system already, thank you for your diligence in check multiple times!

 

Best,
