[spoilers] Miracles do happen, Wenduag came back from permanent story death!

[Clangeddin.86]

Something very funny has just happened in my current playthrough.

In act 3, during Lann's quest, I spared Wenduag, but did not recruit her, told her she was pathetic/weak and not worth of serving (or something like that), and I expected her to recruit her back in chapter 5, like I did during my first play a year ago or so.

To my surprise, Wenduag did come back in act 5, but in Drezen, in the same spot where I was expecting Minhago instead (whom I spared in act 4), Wenduag attacks me, she's only level 1 and I don't need to tell you what kind of end she met.

Anyways, her death seemed permanent, speaking to Lann after reclaiming Drezen prompted a dialogue option mentioning her death, he was kinda disappointed that she went out like candle snuffed in the wind and I thought "oh well that's it, she's gone, I must have chosen the wrong dialogue option in chapter 3", I didn't care that much as I didn't plan on using her anyway.

So I carry on and reach the final part of Lann's quest, I go and fight Salamevek and after I kill him and finish the battle, lo and behold! Wenduag's corpse spawns on the ground and begins the conversation with Lann with her face on the ground for the whole time.
I offer her corpse a chance to join back and there she is, dead and all, a resurrection spell later she's now part of the roster, all's well what ends well.

No, but seriously. Bug.

I have not done Lann's quest in act 5 yet so I don't know what I will see there but here is my latest experience of Wendhuag. I KILLED her in act 3 and she still came back as a lvl 1 enemy in act 5 Drezen...

Yeah it seems like the bugged event is the one in Drezen then, thankfully it doesn't "ruin" the final outcome in the best case scenario.

But the spidey cat came back the very next day
The spidey cat came back, they thought she was a goner
But the spidey cat came back, it just couldn't stay away

This exact scenario happened to me just now I killed Minahgo in ACT4 and found Wenduag waiting for me in Drezen making me confused bcuz I used the evil decision in act 3 to get recruit her later only to one shot her in Drezen and her talking corpse appeared after killing Salamevek so I just rezzed her and kept it moving. Funny bug tho.

I killed Wenduag in Chapter 3 during lann quest, yet she somehow showed up alive in chapter 4 in the lann quest, weird stuff happens in this game :D like I killed certain companion and still his/her body shows up in the tavern in chapter 3 Drezen and remains there at least til I went for chapter 4, wonder if later still there if can come back to Drezen :D

Yep just happened to me

Lann's quest seems extremely bugged. For me on first try I allowed him to do his plan (and guessed correctly that it get's him killed). Then after the boss fight and dialogs, when he died, game just went "You party was wiped out" and only option was to load the game. Second try I told the idiot to shutup and stay in line.

I think that ^ has been confirmed as fixed - so whenever the next patch is out, should be resolved. Anybody seen any sign of when the next patch is out BTW ?

We've been working on PS5 version of the game and on the upcoming DLC 6. Maybe there will be one patch before DLC6 release, but I'm not sure.

Last 2 playthroughs it happened to me(the latest one was 2 days ago). At this point i would say its consistent, definetely not fixed
