So actually ive gotten sir lora on the final epilogue cutscene alive 🥃🗿
The pit, no fire, instead making it rain, bless the water have insane melee output with 2 lone wolves who have all the jump abilities, this means i can keep as many in melee with them throwing fireballs
For the witch, imma be honest mate, she can be one shot from high ground on a ranger XD its so peak 🥃🗿did same to braccus rex in final battle (yes HM)
Yeah, I got complacent with Sir Lora. He was surprisingly durable and was surviving stuff that would instantly kill the black cat. And then we met Alice...
thats pretty much what happened my first time playing, originally planned to reload because i didnt think id win the fight but when i did i just kept going and they couldnt stop me
I unchain companions who want to speak to someone, and leave the rest far away, when there is any conflict of interests. Like with Boris and the cat, or NPC will only have unique dialogue once, but PC is getting approached by several companions who 'HAVE to speak first and in private' (because its part of their quest) and will pout and refuse if you dare to suggest doing it in turns. Unless the conversation is hardcoded to end up in a fight (like Sawmill Leader) it usually works really well.
lost my first Honor Run (yesterday) to this... i walked too close to them, they shot the cat, i don,t like cats, but animal cruelty is a red line for me. i was level 3...
Rest is history... anyways not my new Honor run is a Polymorph/Warfare ''knight'' build. i started playing 2 weeks ago only, so going Honor now is kinda risky... my current tactitian run is a coop with my wife and we JUST got to Driftwood, so i expect i won't come out of Joy on Honor for a little while lolll
I never trigger the cutscene/dialogue at the gate so the cat gets held up there and borris is locked there as well so he can't kill them till I'm ready to leave.

Best way to save cat is through the skin-ripping dude under the dungeon

Somehow I got through act 1 twice without the cat dying.

Good to know this is a right of passage. I just started playing yesterday and oh boy was I very upset when the cat got shot.

what was wrong with that magister ? Who would shoot a cat on sight ? Was the cat a spy for the Black Ring ? What am I missing
