so I am out by a shrine (no spoiler) and anezka basically says "watch this shit!" and I am told I am supposed to protect her.

a) she is doing a boogie dance wierd animation.
no baddies show/ no ritual starts.


I did not save so I had to go a few minutes of game (save after last ingredient) so I am going to try it again.

p.s. are the creatures in question harder than they were in madness quest?

Sounds like a bug, but I haven't heard of it happening to anyone else.

I gather this is your first playthrough? Did you turn round? There's a possibility that the devs were kind and delayed the action until you do.

Creatures are similar, but there are more of them.

when I reloaded it worked.

well, when it reloaded, I was murdered about 9 times by wraiths.

is it just me or is that a really hard part of the game? I killed between 5-9 and then would get surrounded. I was trying to do it just with quen and dodge and sword. damn.

It's not just you, it really is a difficult fight. And often one of the longest. But if you're managing to kill that many, you should manage it (maybe after dying a few more times though).

Some bombs and traps do work on them.

There's a lot of tips in this thread if you need more help.

It's a bug. I can confirm it. Right after the fight is supposed to begin, Anezka stands in place and half-turns, then the animation resets. Forever. The fight never actually starts because of this. Reloading didn't work for me. I Lost two and a half hours of gameplay due to this.

This is a fun fight.. Once I got the hang of it... I played first on Normal. 2nd full playthru on dark. Oooo was that fun. I had a blast once I learned how to move and turn them on each other < giggles > hehe and... could always drop all those bear traps you been picking up < sry they called bear traps in Skyrim > right before you talk to her muhahaha.
