(Spoiler) Stuck with shadow curse after the Oliver fight, can't find a way out before the whole party dies.

[Misan]

I just did the Oliver fight for the quest Lift the Shadow Curse and now I'm stuck with the curse that kills my whole party in 10 seconds and I have no idea what I'm supposed to do.

[['w']]

torches?
light spell?
.
shadowheart
.
or later on for the stronger curse speak with isobel again or find a lantern ( pixie ).

[Misan]

Torches don't work.

The blessing against the curse doesn't work.

Light spell doesn't work.

If you don't have a moon lantern or the pixie bell thing, you might be able to rush out by going into turn based mode and making a mad dash to a safe area. Throw in misty step/dimension door/haste and it should be doable. I've seen some guides talking about being able to reach moonrise tower this way when the lanterns bugged out.

I tried everything, I don't even know where the closest safe zone is. The area I was teleported to fight Oliver is far from anywhere I've even revealed yet.

How tf does the game let me do this quest before I have any means against the greater darkness. Nothing warned me.

Where should this location be, teleported?

I met Oliver two times, both times I had to walk to his place, a hut, were you play hide and seek.

Only when I crossed the bridge to Moonrisetower, did I need a pixie to help me against the stronger curse, else torches were sufficient.

The portal Oliver summons in the quest takes you to the fight area.

Ended up just loading a save before the fight and found myself a pixie blessing too so now I don't have to worry about the curse.

Ahhhhhhhhh damn now I remember, when you fight him with his family at the SharTower okay.

Apparently but nothing is indicating it before you're stuck. It was my next and closest quest too.

the moonlantern/pixie buff should be your first priority in act 2, full stop

do the ambush first (go to the last light inn, get that quest and do it before exploring too much)

I did the Last Light Inn before that, had to murder everyone lol.

*and the defending Halsin at the shore*

This exact same thing happened to me. Did you figure out a solution without having to go back to a save and redo the fight?

I reloaded a little before entering that shadow realm and almost immediately bumped into a patrol that had a pixie light lol.
