**Spoilers**
So scroll down a bit, but the short version is that 1.09c, this whole area feels unplayably broken. I love this game but this area is really badly broken.
1. Upper floor area- I have hit unkillable Hunt Scouts, Medusas, and others.. you can knock them down, but they stay red and an active combat target. If you let them sit for awhile or walk away and come back, they likely will be back on their feet. Randomly some will die properly. Also if you get an exploding crit, they will die and stay dead.
2. Weird cant move areas upper floor - I hit several areas in the lower southwest corner of the upper floor where movement went weird.. the party would freeze in place, or run in place, not like running into an invisibible wall or something.
3. Ekun bug - I found the area where you can get Ekun back, but there is an unkillable troll in that room. Same thing as point 1, troll will go down.. cold iron, acid, fire, electricity, nothing kills it so you get locked into the room because you cant cross the fog barrier.
4. Raise dead on Ekun - See point 3, you can raise dead on Ekun and Dog.. Ekun just stands there, Dog will go active and attack the troll but doesnt do any good.
5. Hunt scout spam - They use a crystal power (what is it?) machine gun style that make them rediculous to fight, doing massive damage, plus blind.
7. Combat across fog zones - I have run into scouts, ghosts, etc that are on the other side of fog zones which really screws up combat. With the latern on, you could cross the zone but once you go into combat the fog becomes a permanent wall. Sometimes you can kite mobs throgh the walls to fight them, but then some cannot.
8. Barbarian NPC dialog - Sorry, blanking on her name, but when you go to recover her the dialoge makes no sense. She just instantly quits and leaves the team were the context makes zero sense from the rest of the conversations with her so far. There is also a giant in the same zone, I assume the one from her story? You can kill him but makes zero difference to anything, and this encounter feels broken.
9. Mirror quest - the interaction with the mirrors and the ghost in the mirror dont make a lot of sense to what actually is being told. After encountering the mirror with the ghost, he indicates the mirror by the entrence is hte logical next one.. I found that one, but it doesnt do anything. I found one in the middle of the building and it gave me a story advance, but then the other two mirrors (closest to the entrence does nothing other than be cloudy) and the one in the basement says the same thing of seeing the mage for a moment then gone. Doesnt seem to advance the story at all, no matter how I work with them.
This is just the start and can add more.. just wow.
