Is this with Smart AI on or off? We're looking into it - these sort of softlocks shouldn't happen anymore, but there may be something missing in this case?
I play with smart AI on, never turned it off. I assume if I had invested into grapple options I could have broken out myself but I was going for a virgin run at the time.
I believe it was and easy LV1 Brigand not the cutpurse or standard variant if that helps.
