Ashen Curse - Permanent? Bug?

[Bellusci]

If you entered here I assume you are already at Act 5 and knows what I'm talking about, if you don't leave before you get a spoiler.

So, I got the curse, got atacked by the ashen lady a few time in the labyrinth, then I finally killed her in a fight with the Lich south of the map, I got her items and all, then I rested and to my surprise the curse is still there, is it a Bug or it will leave afterwards? Should I reload and just don't get the curse encounter in the first place? -4 saving throws is pretty damn punishing, this sucks.

[Bellusci]

anyone?

Curses doesn't usually disapear when you rest. Have you tried casting Remove Curse?

I think it’s a bug that it stays. I killed her and then ran into her again in another area it was weird.

However after I left the dungeon the curse vanished. So it goes away when your done in that area regardless

My seelah has the remove curse mercy on her lay on hands... nothing... and i finished the map right now... don't know if I should reload tho... that's the problem of playing a game YOU know some things are badly bugged, you never know if some effects are intended of just bugged.

Does the log say anything when Seelah tries to remove it. I think there should be text if it succeds or not. But might be bugged like you say. I played Aeon so was immune to curses when she cursed me and never got it.

I tried lay on hands, potions, scrolls, spells. Nothing... So i "cheesed" it, went to drezen, turn on the "remove bad stuf on rest" and rested, voilá, no longer cursed, still looks like a bug tho!

That works. Mine disappeared in drezen without resting it was just gone. No character can remove it btw it auto fails if you try. The aeon immunity is interesting I assume it works because it’s a mythic path thing.

Still it’s 100% a bug. Killing her should remove it. In the end better to simply not go in there and wake her at all till fixed. The only true benefit is a achievement for killing her on core.

It's called Ashen Curse, but it's not one. No removal tool works on it. For me it just disappeared on its own after I finished and left the map, even though the lady kept appearing again and again despite having been killed and looted.

Yep, and tons of XP if you haven't got 20 yet or playing Legend. Bad items tho... that's seems to be a problem actually, a lot of tough encounters with really bad stuff to loot LOL.

Killing her does not even stop her from attacking, heh. I looted her corpse after the second encounter IIRC, but I still killed her 4 or 5 more times walking through the prison.
