Achievement for rescuing all hostages from the Iron Throne
Why is there no achievement for rescuing all the hostages from the Iron Throne?
This is very difficult to do on "tactics" difficulty, you can't make mistakes and must calculate every step and movement.
I believe that freeing all hostages (including Ravengard) on this difficulty level is worth achieving.

Probably better not to be as there are too many glitches that would piss off a lot of players going for the achievement like some of the hostages using dash but not moving, some hostage blocking the stairs making all the others to just stop doing anything , etc.

The encounter is too janky

I only managed to save all but one gnome, its nigh impossible and requires alot of RNG to save them all. The Bane cultists could one shot the useless Gondians using Blight before you can do anything. Had SH work overtime on CCing and partitioning the fight but the Steel Watchers and their suicide AOE was still an issue.

Friend, you don’t understand what kind of hostages we are talking about. )))
This is not about the gnomes in the Factory, but about the underground prison "Iron Throne", where you need to sail in a submarine.

Just spent 4 hours on this mission,
Not only you have to find a solution for saving everyone in 5 turns, but once you have be prepared to deal with bullsh*t

Npcs who dash without moving, npcs who run from ladder because another npc blocks it or because why not, fish people giving everything they can to murder/ensnare the prisoners... Still feels good to have overcome so much bullsh*t though.

That's why I say saving all the hostages deserves an achievement.
Even if you don’t take into account the bugs “Npcs who dash without moving, npcs who run from ladder because another npc blocks” (what happened to me too) the mission is quite difficult.

I completely agree, I spent two evenings trying to save all the hostages and when I did it I wasn’t even sure that I did it because there was no achievement to prove it. I was sure that after such things it had to be.
