Hi there,

when you save & load a game in an area where a companion is recruited the
stats bonuses of the companion get stacked.
Resulting in 37 Int for Aloth for example...
It's nearly impossible to avoid resulting in a totally overpowered party.

I saved in Gilded Vale literally dozens of times (most quick saves, some autosaves, one or two manual saves) - that never happened for me.
I seem to be one incredibly lucky person when it comes to PoE bugs. ^^

Check your defensive abilities of Edér then.
They must be over the roof.

Currently at level 5: Deflection around 70 - with wary defender stance, plus large shield. So I'd say: nope.

Also Aloth does have his normal intelligence - I would have noticed if I could burn the whole map with my fan of flames ^^

It's not sufficient to just save in Gilded Vale, but reload from there (from the outside area, not from inside the inn or a building). Just quicksave followed by quickload and check the stats.

I am sure I saved and loaded many times in every locations where I recruited someone
I don't think I had this bug, but I'll check in dept later today when I'm home.

I was thinking it was steam related but i just tried replicating it and it turns out my Eder has got a third invisible arm carrying an invisible shield permanently. :(
I didn't notice any other characters (Aloth) getting increased stats though , just Eder's resistances reaching demigod levels.

Do saves and reloads from the temple dungeon within Gilded Vale count too? I've saved and reloaded a few times in town, and many times in the dungeon. Eder's "godly" tanking skills have failed to make a difference that I can discern.

I haven't tested it in the temple but i believe it's only where they can be recruited so it should just be Gilded Vale that multiplies the stats. According to that forum it's where you recruit companions and also in some of the 1st city districts; not entirely sure which ones affect which companion though.

Never seen this bug.
Wish I had! :-D
