Thanks, good to know I didn't ruin anything other than making the stuff I skipped a bit too easy. I literally didn't do anything at all in Orobas Fjords, I went through the waypoint shrine into Fjords then straight back into Broken Valley.
I'll go back and explore there more and try to pretend I'm afraid of the level 21 things. Also yes I did mindread Ba'al. I have like 12 unspent talent points because I can't decide what to get and haven't gone back to my tower yet to uncap the ones I think I need.
Is there a way to respec your stat points the way your skill trainer lets you respec your skill points?
Thanks again for the reply.
