I’ve run into some issues with Caith’s Reconnaissance Squad. One I jumped down from the ledge where the chopper comes from (before it came) and you can see Canach is invisible, with no artwork by his name either.
Secondly, in screenshot 253 you can see that for some reason every single enemy here now has the determined buff, making it impossible to continue the mission. Every NPC has it, and they are their own source. Husks say source is Husk, Wolf says source is Wolf, Canach says Source is Canach, and Caithe says source is Caithe… so now I have to restart the mission.
Quick edit: The Priory research, whispers agent, and vigil marksman do not get Determined. I can resurrect them and they die. Also I am locked permanently in a combat state because of this determined buff I think. It has been 20 minutes and my character will not regen his HP even though I haven’t been fighting or getting hit. Time to restart the mission!
Edit #2: Replaying the mission, I noticed that the Determined buff on enemies goes away when Canach says “There’s the squad, let’s go”. So I must have somehow not triggered that quest event on my playthrough where they permanently had the determined buff. Once Canach gets in combat (which if you look closely you can see in the screenshot) he will not leave, so I think he somehow got ahead of me, and into combat — failing to trigger the quest event and since I could not get him to ever move away (even in death) the quest was impossible to complete.
Also the ending to this mission has never been clear to me. Go down the slope! Wait just kidding this part is overrun and not defensible! Go back to the ledge! ???? Are you drunk?
And if I drop down from the ledge (to where Canach is in screen 251) and just walk back up, it’s an instant “win” scenario, where the chopper immediately comes.
For further info… I am currently on replay no 3. Did story, did achieve once earning Recon Demolitionist and Not Under My Command, and was currently trying for No Thanks to Canach.
Also: Topic Title is too long (maximum is 45 characters)
what.
