Doesnt seem so. I used non lethal and he just died.

Remove curse (tier 3 spell) doesn't work either :(

That's the biggest bummer. It literally says shadow-cursed but for the spell, he is not cursed. He is also temporarily hostile. It seemed like a hint that he can be saved.

I'm pretty sure dudes undead. Doesn't matter if you were to be able to cure the shadow curse away from him if he died when he got pulled into the shadows. Which is what happened no? (only just started in act 2 recentlyish so still learning the npc names out here)

First try at the engagement, I noticed the statuses said he was Undead. I thought he was a lost cause, as I try to save everyone possible from dying.
I lit the braziers before the fight, cast Faerie Fire, anything to light the place before the cutscene. Nothing SEEMED to have worked.

However, I kept everyone alive. He turned ally during a Round (?). I finished the encounter in that Round and he, and all the other Harpers, ran off like nothing happened in said cutscene. Curse was removed from him as he ran off. He's alive and well, apparently. 😂

did this do something with the story?

I turned him into sheep with polymorph. When he got turned back he was healed. But I also had him in the moon lantern range, so might be also required.

I just controlled undead and made him my Allie he followed me until crows messed him up haha

No. Even the mourning for him at the Inn still occurs. He just chills on the Inn-side of the bridge, chilling, non-interactable, knowing damn well he shouldn't be there 😂

Bump with this new patch 8/25/2023 can we now "safely" save him ?

[ToscoMan]

In my case, I removed the curse by turning him into a sheep with a polymorph spell. His partner then struck him, causing him to return to his human form without the curse. However, when they arrived at the place where they were, he stood in the middle of the gate, while his partners were in front of the grave crying for Yonas' death, even though he was standing alive in front of the gate.

As of March 2024 this all seems to have been patched away. I redid the battle with polymorph, and he just changed back to undead in the end. I didn't have the moon lantern on him, but I don't see why that should make such a difference.

This thread was quite old before the recent post, so we're locking it to prevent confusion.
