So I'm killing the Curst Guards, somhiens, and looters as I seek Trias, and then I let the ghereleths kill the remaining Curst Guards, giving me less to do in order to kill the 3 of them.

But before I advanced, I did some scouting (my TNO is a rogue), then brought my party downstairs to buff up, as my spell enchantments had thus far run out.

Only now, whenever I try to use Power of One or Knot Charms, instead of gaining strength, the users of that spell and items actually LOSE strength! Instead of going from 15 STR to 18-19STR, my players go from 15 STR to 11 STR!

So, does anyone have any aid for me?

I should tell that I'm playing an un-modded game, and that I once tried to use the Infinity Engine Game Editor to lower my ridiculously high DEX and instead balance out my CON and INT, but then undid those changes, as they prevented my TNO from levelling up. After that, I reverted back to my exact stats (I had them written down).

I don't want to use the editor again, and would much rather solve this problem so I can play w/o cheats, temporary, valid or no. So please aid me!

Some spells work differently in Curst in Carceri, strength raising spells work the opposite way, so you have to change your tactics. You can rest in the distillery and have your party memorize other spells, if you absolutely can't defeat Trias you can kill respawning monsters to gain some XP.
LOL! I completely forgot about spells working differently on other planes, different from the Outlands and prime material worlds! Thanks alot kmonster! Here I was thinking that Imma have to roleplay about my party taking a nap before facing Trias, in order to fix the possible bug! Ha!

Thanks again!
