Wizand Hag Takes 4 Turns in a Row??

[Syrus]

I know this game is ment to be brutal, but with nobody in my party exceeding 50% stress, the hag just wiped out my whole party. That wouldn't bother me, except in one round she Tossed my Crusader into the pot, tenderized twice, and tasted the stew. Is it just me or is she getting too many turns in a row? Really wish I had recorded this as I lost my resolve 3 crusader, resolve 2 leper and cleric, and a jester. *sigh*

AT this point it really looks like I'm going to be forced to restart the game. Any advice for taking her on someday again? Is 4 uninterupted actions in a row normal for her?

Do you really want to start over? you'll lose all your town progression and trinkets.

advice that i would give is a leper and a hellion in your group, the leper can kill the pot easily bcuz of massive dmg he does to front row, and hellion can bleed the boss out as the bosses hp is low, other 2 slots are up to u , a highwayman could work there or a graverobber for the poison dart/pickaxe etc etc. u want a party that can reach the back line easily.

I've got around 7 or 8 hours into my game and have no trinkets worth a crap. The town progression would be a arguement I'd consider, but I currenlty have 3 rank 0's and 5 rank 1's most of whom are tapped out on stress because I was doing a farming run with my main party. So yeah, I'll lose my town progression, but it will reset the dungeon's so I stop having to deal with most of my dungeon's being lvl 3's or 5's

I am using a leper. Like them a lot. Was using hte Jester to bleed her and had her down to 17 or so hp before she got her turn spam.

why didnt you reatreat as soon as you realised that you can win that battle?
How the hell you keep losing characters in this game? I dont get it.

Because I went from 3 characters with 90% health and the hag bleeding and at 40/66 on turn 4 or 5, to the hag pulling her 4 turns in a row and having one character in the pot and the other three all at deaths door.

She cant bring you to the death door with 1 hit. Her dmg 4 max. Your party healt must be at red at turn 2 already. Which means you started battle wounded. You should retreated from start.

I have beaten hag at both 1 and 3rd lvl. She cant do jack at all. Also nothing stoped you from bringing resolve lvl 4 party with fully upgraded gear to finish her.

The dungeons will change up randomly. You still will have apprentice level short dungeons available from time to time to bring new recruits up. Yes, the old Hag was a female mongrel to me too. I lost my good Vestal in that fight.

Yeah, I noticed taht when I got up and started up the game again. I only ever have one or so at a time but its something!

Recruits can be thrown at any level dungeon for loot, but advancement requires victory. Thus it would be pretty bad if easy levels simply disappeared after a while.
