This might also be a bug, but i finished the game on classical and then went to check stuff in explorer mode.
Ok, so at the beginning of the game before you enter fort joy. There is a scene taking place outside of the main gate, where the lizard magister Artusa is killed by the hammer.
I found out that you can actually by pass that, by using the stair on the right to get to the upper level and into the fort.

Then you can continue with the rest of the game leveling up, gathering your party etc and Dallis and her crew remain on that spot until you go back and start the conversation.
So after leveling up I came back and attacked that group in the hopes to save Artusa . But dallis kills her in her first turn no matter how far away you can teleport her.
Anyways, before you can defeat her she teleports the Bishop Alexandar away and then changes into a dragon and escapes. (that only happend because i was a little low level and did not have enough damage to kill her while she was knocked down). But She dropped her hammer the first time round. Which was cool since it has +2 to necromancy

So has anyone else tried to do this? I might try it again, after leveling up and then coming back to try and kill her.
