i'm not the be all or know all. i lost my whole party twice over in burnt offerings. most at thistletop. my suggestion to you is have the druid stabalize them and put them in the prison ( 2nd level of thistle top) and have them escape with the help of a 4th level npc rogue. get them to swim to shore , go back to town tail between their legs , reequip, then try again. hope it's better the next time round. c
