    For those wondeing if you think a pawn has it here is what you do. If it is a summoned pawn just send it back. Thats all you gotta do. If it is your main pawn you gotta kill it. You can by throwing it into the ocean or off a cliff. The. Go to a rift stone and bring them back. And thats all. Just pay attention to what they say and how they act and it will never happen

      The problem is that it doesn't telegraph it happening enough.
      The mechanic is poorly implemented.
      As far as I am aware, your pawn only updated on the server when you rest at an Inn, so the game actively encourages you to do it. But there is a risk that the whole town could be wiped???
      Ok then, since I am such a great threat to everyone, from now on I will only rest out in the wilds, where this isn't a possibility... Except now your pawn doesn't get updated.
      1) they need to make it much more obvious
      2) they need to make it so that camping also updates the server
      3) if it happens while out in the wilds, now you have a drake battle on your hands.
      As it stands, it's pretty shit.

    It could've been a cool mechanic... If your player character didn't just sleep through it. Imagine if the cutscene plays, your sleep is interrupted by screams outside. You aren't fully rested, not fully healed, and maybe you have limited equipment since you were sleeping, and now you have a challenging boss fight to save the citizens.
    They literally already built in the ambush at camp mechanic, seems obvious to have done it similar.

It just has one or two mechanics that could've been improved, and having to fight these shadow monster dragon plagued pawns with a chance at saving the citizens if you succeed would've been one of them. I'd even go as far as to say they should be extremely OP and that you wake up without the rest of your pawns to make it genuinely challenging. Furthermore, they should drop no exp.

    To stop dragonsplague, notice your pawn have an aggresive behavior, holding their head. Its gotten from fighting drakes that grab a pawn and do mindcontrol on them. The debuff can spread to other pawns too. To "cure" it, the pawn needs to die fully, no rez. And respawn them back via Riftstone.

      How to detect in MP: pulsing eyes turning red, pawn disobeying some commands, casting spells not assigned to or looking different. On summoned side pawns, there should be a pop-up describing the plague when you summon your first diseased pawn.
      Apparent cure: For Main Pawn, kill it and resummon. For other pawns, release them till their owner cures them. (Some people say killing then works too, haven't confirmed)
      Cause: Being grabbed by a dragon and them incanting some magic on the pawn.

    Seems I got lucky because I remember the tutorial popping up and thought nothing of it. I was stuck in the wilderness with low max HP pawns (my lone camping kit was stolen and I didn't want to use up my one ferrystone) and along the way swapped one out for a passerby pawn because its max HP was way too low, it was slightly lower level than my other pawns, and I didn't know how long it would take to find an inn.
    It must've been the pawn with the plague and I guess it didn't infect my main pawn because when I finally rested at an inn after wandering around aimlessly for an hour or two, nothing happened. I'm only seven hours in with no wakestones (I used up the one I had against a Minotaur) and I haven't even met up with Brant at the tavern yet because I wanted to explore before potentially moving the main story forward.

So strat is to clear all riddles to get all chests and before she runs away to start attacking her to start the combat and shot her to insta-kill her (once she starts to run away once her HP is low, at least this is how I did it).

    If you complete ecery Sphinx riddle and kill her, you get the Eternal Wakestone (one-time use) which will revive all NPCs within a massive radius, such as...an entire town. Tips for beating her riddles: Remember where you got your first Seeker Token. Remember how many riddles you succeeded at any given time. Save at inns before trying to do her riddles, since you only get one shot per riddle. When you complete them all, and shes about to fly away, ATTACK ONLY THE ANIMAL PARTS OF HER FOR THE ENTIRE FIGHT.
