Demon Path Crusade Mechanics

[decompression]

So, I just finished act 3 on the demon path. I did not unlock any unique units for the demon path. Yozz never visited the command room after the first time.

Do the mythic-specific crusade mechanics only kick in in act 5? Or is this a bug?

Crusade difficulty is set to the minimum, for the record. Maybe I finished it too fast?

Asking for input from other mythic paths too, not just Demons.

I second that. Nothing left to do, but go to the Fane and yozz only came once.

Mine only appeared on Act 5 which I am currently on. I think a literal 5 stack of them appeared in my capital and a few random ones. You gain the ability to summon one into a unit for an energy point decrease. Currently, I haven't found them at all useful compared to my doomstack of hedgeknights, champions, marksmen, hellknights, assassins and headhunters lol.
There is the odd army event that spawned a mix of non-demon and demon units as well.

I'd like to figure this out too. I got the first visit from Yozz, and then nothing outside of the Abyssal Crusade debuffs to reflect the demon mythic path.

I *think* Lich gets its necromancy mechanic pretty much from the start of Act 3, though I'll concede that its debuffs are much greater.

Still, it's definitely a blow to the flavor of the crusade if the Demon Path doesn't let you do anything but personally rage until Act 5 >.<;

Update

I am currently doing a Trickster playthrough, and Trickster-exclusive crusade mechanics kick in much earlier. I was visited by the Trickster-specific advisor 3 times before act 4. I also got a unique spell for using on enemy armies before engagement. I did not get one on the Demon path.

So yeah, either Demon is bugged or Demon mechanics only appear in act 5

I've seen a few other posts elsewhere that suggest it's bugged and should be getting those mechanics at a similar rate in Act 3. The demon advisor just...doesn't show up more than once like he should.

So...bummer. Like I said, it's more of a flavor thing given all the issues the Crusade mode has, but I'll probably be putting my demon playthrough on hold and redoing Act 3 if/when this gets fixed >.>;

How often do you rest as in camping? There is some indication that some stuff's progression is tied to that. No resting, no progression. Companion relationships e.g. is highly affected by it. From my point of view even the event cards for crusade mode. Just a guess.

Considering the fact that I am playing on Story, probably not a lot. I am basically only resting whenever my party is exhausted from traveling. I never rest for spellslots or abilities

My current guess is that it is tied to the quest Middlegame. However, the more people second this, the less likely it seems
