So I spent the good portion of an hour rolling up characters for Black Pits..A spiffy wild mage, a charismatic and agile swashbuckler, a fearsome halforc barbarian, an elven archer, a human monk, and a she-wolf shapeshifter. I rolled and rolled hundreds of times just to get the stats I like.
Finally we entered the pits, three tasloi came rushing in as usual. My super monk (STR 18, DEX 18, CON 16) could martial arts them to death, heck my shapeshifter could turn wolf and rip them apart easily. But what did I do? Ordered my wild mage to cast a sleep spell. Yeah, all great stories start with a wild mage casting the most basic of spells, right?
Needless to say, it wild surged into a fireball and it wounded all of my characters down to 1 HP. Game paused:badly wounded. I unpaused and all of them collapsed one by one, and the game ended, returning me to main screen. :facepalm:
Worse still, there was no auto save to load so my characters were gone for good. And I spent so much time rolling them!
Anyway, I wanted to share this with you and I wonder if anybody failed at the initial battle of Black Pits like I did? Even I am the first one to fall at that point, I think an auto-save at the start of the game could have been nice, to salvage neatly rolled up characters. ^^
