[spoiler] i think i broke the Shadow Druid quest

[Deadmeat]

To pickpocket Kagha, i cast Fog to get rid of the 3 nosy rats that keep breaking my stealth. They disappeared and i managed to pickpocket her. When the final fight came, the cut screen showed the rats turning into Shadow Druids, but the fight was never initiated...the 3 rats simply disappeared!

Same problem but without casting frog, there's still a bug with this encounter if you choose to kill or convince Kagha none of the shadow druids are in the fight. They just disappear in my playthrough.

+ have same bug issue

Necroed this thread because it was never fixed. I attacked the rats while they were still yellow. After I missed, they immediately vanished & never returned. The cut-scene triggered normally, but I never got to fight the shadow druids.

Thats really strange, it at the very least seems to be inconsistent. Can you replicate it after a reload?

Same bug with me. I used fog to pickpocket her, and probably deleted the rats. This was a very long time ago. I'm not willing to lose all that progress. Not sure what to do now.

You can just ignore the whole Shadow druid thing. In my first playthrough I didn't know about it, so I just did the Goblin camp stuff and saved Halsin and everything progressed just fine, without ever finding out about the existence of the Shadow druids.
