Talk:Cernd's Child/@comment-35434313-20200209141210

I just finished this quest again minutes ago. I had totally forgotten how the final encounter would unfold so I used too much force and the battle ended almost as soon as I unpaused the game (I thought there would be a nasty fight as I was totally unprepared). I'm running the game officially patched to 2.5.16.6. Here are a few observations -

1) Deril - a mage and a bad guy, obviously - was instantly killed by Neera, after he turned hostile and Neera threw a sequencer at him.

2) Igarol - a lich, obviously - was only badly injured by Neera just so that he could bring up a dialogue.  As soon as the dialog was over, Jan killed him with a single hit. He appeared to be leaving via a Dimention Door, rather than intended to fight us.

3) Cernd's baby - I didn't even have a chance to take a look at it, let alone seeing two copies of it as reported in early comments.  The feedback said I got something.  But, once the 3rd dialog was over, Cerned left and it was gone.

4) Cernd's equipped items - he took away everything with him, just as if I removed him from the party in a regular way.

5) Cernd's spells - when I got him back, his spell slots were exactly the same as when he left: higher level ones had been depleted.

6) Reputation - no gain, no loss.

7) A lot of XP points awarded to eveyone. Cernd got extra 50K.
