    Hi,
    atm im in the dungeon lvl 2 in the toee.
    In my battle with the werewolfs, i somehow managed to hit the crystal mirror (the one which tells you to lay down your weapons).
    but i cant seem to hit it anymore - chars wont go out of battle cause there is no physical body to attack, i also cant cast any spells on it.
    anyone had this problem before, or is it something completly new?

    Sounds like a bug - I don't think you should be in combat with the 'mirror' itself. Its just a pseudo NPC for you to converse with prior to the actual encounter and should not be there in combat.

    Hi,

    some problem, different location:

    I tried taking on the earth temple on the first floor - also cast an AoE Spell (Ice Rain) like with the mirror and got the temple sentinel (from the closed door) in the action list of the opponents too. Cant get out of battle here again - the action list either keeps the sentinel in it (with no way of killing it) or it completly "hangs up" (no crash, just no action) when the sentinel is ready.

    In case it happens again... when the only remaining enemy is that invisible character, then if you move your party far away enough it will end combat.
    The 'hangs' should normally have an engine timer to de-hang and end the turn (takes about 20 seconds), but it's kinda wonky.
