Should Shoal affect multiple party members? *spoiler*

in The Road to v2.0
In my current run-through, Xzar was already dead when I had Xan kiss Shoal the Nereid. When she raised Xan, Xzar was also raised.

Is this a bug or intended? I never before tried having multiple dead party members in this situation.

Running the latest 2.0 Steam beta.

    It is a bug, report it :)

    I think I remember hearing about this before, so I doubt it's something specific to the beta.

    I looked it up and she has a special spell she casts which raises the entire party, sorta like Mass Raise Dead. I seriously doubt this is a bug. Neat fact for the Did you know? thread though...

    It was probably easier to code that way than have it target a specific party member.

    While we're at it, can we just give her a special dialogue if the player is solo? Have the kiss only do 50% health damage perhaps?

    I like to see that dumb red ogre mage sometimes.

    I have definitely had this surprise bonus in 1.3, so it is not a regression for 2.0. I suspect it goes all the way back to vanilla, and is kind of unusual to be wandering around with dead PCs at that point. I think I accidentally got 3 rezzes in my case, including the actual victim.

    How about this, @Dee:

    Is Shoal's kiss supposed to kill Charname under Story Mode? Cuz it does :-)

    Don't judge me for running Story Mode! I'm trying to get all the 'chievements.

    My gut tells me yes, that's a plot death. But my Story Mode tells me no, you shouldn't die ever.

    Does it kill other party members in Story Mode too?
  • bleusteelbleusteel Member Posts: 523
    Yep, other party members die if kissed.

    It's also game over if sirens charm everyone in the party.

    Aec'Letec can also kill Charname and party members in Story Mode.
