Reyna recruit bug/solution

[Isalon]

Hey folks, sorry - you're going to be relieved to hear this but also frustrated.
You're told to beat Reyna within 3 turns doing X damage. What you are not told, is that - due to a translation issue OR an actual bug - you don't get 3 actual turns. The "turns" go based off Reyna's actions in combat.
What the expectation is: You have 3 full turns to deal X damage and thus win her over.
What the reality is: She goes FIRST, so before YOU even act, one "turn" is wasted.
She goes first: Turn one is done. Turn two begins. You act. End of round.
She goes first: Turn two is done. Turn three begins. You act. End of round.
She goes first: Turn three is done. You have only acted for two of YOUR turns, but she's done three of HER turns.
I am convinced this is not how the devs intended this to go because you can STILL act on the third round (which you have auto-lost) because you haven't hit the "win" condition, but once you DO hit the "win" condition, the fight recognizes that SHE acted three times already, and you auto-lose - even though you "won".
How to get around this? Two scenarios:
1. Beat her in 2 rounds flat, you CANNOT enter a third round. If you DO enter a third round, your characters MUST ACT BEFORE she does.
2. Have a high-speed team to act BEFORE she acts. In the example I gave, if your team all goes first and she goes last, then you will get three FULL rounds of combat to take her down.

This....is pretty awful, honestly. Definitely something that should have been addressed before full release. It's not game breaking, but if you don't understand what they need from you, it can be an incredibly frustrating experience.

I hope this helps clear this recruit up!

I kinda suspected that was what was going on. I'm sure it will get fixed, but whether it will be the patch that is about to drop, who knows.

Good advice! Hope this gets patched soon.
