And I missed the Wyll or something character, somehow he died on the first goblin assault on the camp. I didn't even know he was a companion.
Hah, that's funny. I really love how D&D this game feels in the sense of so many quick, permanent consequences to our world. Really, really fun.
I'm a warlock with Lae'zel, Shadowheart, and Wyll. 10 hours in, combat's been fine so far, have only had one wipe - I find it pretty ideally balanced, actually. Had a really fun scenario where Lae'zel rushed up a cliff, pushed a goblin off, and the rest of the party was able to decimate from atop the cliff. Interesting you say the enemies rush for your wizard - I haven't experienced that with my warlock.
Also, 2 short rests between a long one would be very nice.
