Completely new player here.
I'm still in the tutorial (ship of the nautiloids) where i need to reach the rudder of that ship: There is a fight with commander Zhalk and an nautiloid going on. I have a party of 4. Whatever i do, each party member misses any attack. It doesn't matter if these attacks are melee, ranged or magic and it doesn't matter if i stand besides that enemy or in a distance. Since commander Zhalk gets company with two of his species later on, my party gets killed during that 'TUTORIAL' sequence in an ongoing loop, no matter what i do. What's wrong here? Nearly any attack goes missing, no matter what character i use - i don't expect D&D rules to play like PoE, but it feels ridiculous the way combat feels.
You are supposed to run past them, like the npcs tell you multiple times.
Killing Zhalk is possible but you have to know what you are doing
