Approx where is this really tough fight in the first zone?

I will definitely be more keen on gaining high ground and stealth opportunities from now on. :) And I've got hex on Wyll so I'll examine the toughest enemies, hex an ability, and then target that weakness with a spell or weapon action to gain Advantage.

I've got a shield on Gale. The +2 AC seems to remain even though I've got his ranged weapon active. On Wyll I'm using the flaming greatsword (pact bound), so I'll have to find a decent one handed weapon for him first. He definitely got hit harder than the others due to only having 14 AC.

I also noticed the importance of Initiative. When I respecced Shadowheart I put her dexterity at 10 because I wanted her in heavy armour which rules out any dex bonus to AC. But every enemy gets to act before her, lol.

Approx where is this really tough fight in the first zone?

The northwestern corner of the first map. Bit of a doozy.

Assuming that's the gith gang. They wiped the floor with my party. I loaded and succeeded with dialogue checks instead. Got over 300 xp, but it would have been fun to kill them and get their stuff too. Maybe next playthrough. :)

Edit: I don't like how enemies get 3 attacks per turn. If that's a feature for the rest of the game... I'll be sad.
