Hi everyone,

I have already made it through the game once on my Rogue playthrough (had a blast and didn't even wind up doing most of the robbery missions, hitting that on a second playthrough) and have started a Mage run.

I'm enjoying it a lot, but I'm having some trouble collecting Willowbark. I have obtained it by



but after I do, I'm given the message about the trolls approaching.

With my rogue playthrough, I just but with my Mage, I can't find out any way to survive the encounter.

I need to do this to get the bark, but I have no clue how to avoid being caught.

Thanks! Love the game.

You will need the Shadow spell to survive the encounter.

I had used the Shadow Spell, but it did not work.

Let me try again now that I have leveled it up a bit...

That did it.

I've noticed the instances when you have to use the Shadow spell to solve a puzzle, there isn't much prompt letting you know the skill is too low.

Thanks for the help!

Yeah, Shadow is definitely the way to go. I didn't learn it 'til chapter 3 and man I wish I'd bought it right away
