    Leave it to this game that makes people utterly forget that in the end, it's still a *program* with finite abilities. Maybe one day, in our lifetimes, every single NPC will be an autonomous little AI, but as of now: no, not a bug, just not coded, because at some point Larian devs would have turned into gibbering wrecks if they tried to cover *every* permutation players would try. What they did cover is already mind-bending, and makes me wonder if some of the devs are now sitting giggling in rooms with soft walls and very close fitted jackets. 😆

Or, like someone mentioned a bit above me a simulcarum. So she can be at various places at any time and get the information she needs if something worthwile would happen.

    Always worth chasing characters. If you upset Ethel in the Grove, she exclaims "I'm out of here." and runs off. If you are fast enough you can get ahead of her and stop her before she can escape the grove. I could not kill her, but I did have her "frozen" and was able to come back regularly to steal from her, time and time again.
    But once her image was encountered with the brothers, she vanished from the grove.

    To save everyone and get the stat bosst just make it to the hag without beeing seen by the masks, then have shadowheart cast silence around where the hag appears in her lair and have astarion sneak araound the other side of the chasm separated from the ret of the party before you approach and start the fight.
    Then approach with Lae'zel or Karlach. The hag is silenced so she can't use her illusions or call the masks. If you positioned your tank and the silence bubble right the hag will leave the bubble at the end of every turn without using her magic and you can shove her back inside. Rinse and repeat until she's at ~10hp.
    Then and only then leave her outside of the bubble or the dialogue where she offers the stat boost wont trigger due to her beeing silenced.
    After you finnish negotiations for the boost switch to astarion and finish her of.
    Done.
    If you're using astarion you can even rob her before you kill her.

      There is a way easier way to approach fighting Ethel.
      In her hut, before combat, just have someone pickpocket the potion of invisibility away from her. This will prevent her from going invisible - I know, you'd expect a Hag wouldn't need a potion, right?
      From there, just kill her while still in her hut. I guess she could probably still make it to her hidden stairs, but as long as you have enough damage output you can just kill her before that happens. That's how I did it. All the magic goes away when she dies. I don't think you would even need to wear the mask to get past her thralls. The tree door is also just gone.

    This is awesome. Storywise I would say the multiple ethel's is because of her ability to make her seem like there are multiples of her from her fight where they each take actions but at a longer range.
    In our reality though the two of them is just a matter of how things are coded. Likely you could get all 3 of her that exist in the zone to be in existence at the same time because there are versions of her coded for each different point for their cutscenes and interactions.

One way to check would be if attempts could be made to pickpocket multiples and what it calls up, and if stealing from one affects the inventories of another since we do know that stealing things previously can in fact be detected at certain times and the game even responds to it on occasion with special dialogue.

    Brothers do not always die. You can save them through a simple dialogue, during the first encounter. Ask them what the whole fuss was about, they will tell about lost sister, how they need to find her. Simply tell them that you have too much to do yourself but wish them good luck. One says thanks, other says "we don't need thanks, we can do it". They go away, but you will also not find their corpses, they wont go to swamp. When you later press Ethel on them, she says that they are alive and went back to their farm, guess Ethel gave them a runaround or a solid scare.
    Granted the can always lie about it, but the point is that there will be no corpses anywhere in swamp, or wandering brothers.

    Now, I know almost nothing about game development, but I do know sometimes odd tricks are used to avoid certain things happening, and it's very possible the two Ethels are there just to ensure that you don't use dialogue-pausing to sneak to her teahouse while she's not there.
    But whatever the actual reason for doing that was, it replicates the effect of the illusion spell Project Image very well. It's not normally in the green hag statblock, but Larian has done a lot of homebrew and giving hags a couple high-level spells to let them mess around is very much in line with the spirit of the game, so it wouldn't be unprecedented. It's also very much in line with the power of her other illusions, namely the Sunlit Wetlands illusion. A normal non-fey Wizard could replicate that illusion with two spells: Mirage Arcane, and Seeming. The higher of those, Mirage Arcane, is a 7th level spell. What level is Project Image? That's right, 7th! It's very much in her wheelhouse. Or I guess teahouse.

    While I do think Auntie Ethel being at two places at the same time is simply an oversight, you could argue that it's established that she can summon clones of herself (as she does when you fight her in her lair) so it might just be the case that the one talking to the brothers is a clone Ethel summoned.

    If you help Ethel and go to combat, you can run away. They'll eventually get bored and go back to threatening Ethel. If you avoid combat with them after that, they'll still be there arguing with air even after Ethel is dead.

    Its possible its a bug but it can make sense even if its not a bug. Even in the battle you fight the hag, the hag actually make illusion of herself. The one talking with the brothers couldve been an illusion or a clone as far as the lore is concerned.

    If you lock the Ethel in the Grove in combat she will not show up in the teahouse with mayrina. I've had the brothers Ethel, mayrina Ethel, and basement Ethel all locked in convos at the same time. The Ethel speaking to the brothers has a lower level and a slightly different outfit.
    Trying to block the brothers by surrounding them with boxes and barrels makes them vanish after some time.
    I've done all sorts of experiments with the hag encounter 😂

    I used a one hit kill scroll on ethel before she pulls you into the dialogue with the brothers. Interestingly enough, the brothers die aswell immediately. I've tried knockout with the brothers, but the game considers them dead that way aswell. I've read its hardcoded. Oh and I also tried knocking out Gendry to get Astarions approval, but he was also considered dead when I reached Act 3. Knockout only seems to work as intended some of the time.

    "I was a bit disappointed, because it doesn't make sense"
    And walking into a hag's house, picking up a pregnant woman and teleporting her away with you makes more sense to you?
    Yes, there are ways I would have liked to handle that quest differently as well, but that approach seems like the most unlikely one. - especially since you usually need a willing creature to teleport with you, mirina is 100% not willing at that moment.

    Haha interesting the fun things you can do in this game! I actually saved the brothers lives, I think! I didn't want to leap to assumptions when they were arguing with the hag - even though my partner (who had played before) said yep, she's a hag - after all, she didn't look like a hag then, and they could have been prejudiced, witch hunting yokels - so I refused to side with them, which let the hag go, but triggered a fight. Well they might have been ignorant yokels but that still didn't mean they should die (and they still could be in the right!) so I knocked them out instead of killing them. I'm pretty certain that the next time I passed that point, there were no bodies, they had simply vanished and assumed gone home! I tried to save the lives of the witches' enchanted minions the same way (they were hostile to us) but we got some crit rolls in there unfortunately which finished one or two off. I don't know what happened to the ones we saved, they didn't come back to camp with us.

  • @xTwilightWolvesx

    I think there’s some bugged dialogue, because the first time I saw the brothers I defended Auntie Ethel (not knowing who she is) but turned on non-lethal attacks for the brothers. It caused some weird dialogue when I went to Auntie Ethel’s where the game sort of treated it like the brothers died, but you can still tell Mayrina that you didn’t kill them. It’s really odd. Has anyone else done this?

    There's one other option.
    If you side with the hag, you can knock out the brothers. Now, when I played on release (up to the second patch, I think) that was completely bugged, with brothers being considered dead, but the entire "They are dead!" dialogue in hag's house looped a few times. Not sure if that was fixed since.

  • @TollkirscheTTV
    @TollkirscheTTV 2 місяці тому

    Not sure if you or someone else already tried that but I have an idea. What if you see through the illusion before the cutscene with the brothers, kill all the fake sheeps, defuse or step on every trap the brothers normally walk through and than go to Ethel and the brothers, make her just leave, say you won't help and follow them to the house? Maby that triggers a fight where you can actually protect and save them or they still vanish while wondering. Maybe they just die by entering her house, but would Ethel really kill the brothers in front of Maryna? I really want to see if that works :D

  • @Max_Pendragon

  • @Shabiraable

      the only possible is fix is not being able to use arcane lock on ANY stairs leading to ANY area (spell not applicable to certain type of object, because it isn't individually coded for each interaction, by systems-driven, which leads to all sorts of clown-fiesta unexpected by either players or devs interactions just like in immersive sim)

There was no dialog option that mentions this scenario. It is not really worth it, you do not get anything special from that as far as I know.
