FAST ANSWER / LIGIA
Keep her father alive before expecting an invite.
Advance the Southbay story, choose the option that preserves Ligia's father, and avoid the lamp-handling route reported to cause his death. After the scene resolves, check the next audience for Ligia rather than treating the patch fix as an automatic recruit.
- Create a checkpoint before the Southbay decision that affects her father.
- Choose the father-survival branch and record the exact option text.
- Advance one cycle and check the audience, map, and roster for Ligia.
- If the father dies, keep the result labeled as a branch outcome rather than a missing invite bug.
What patch 1.0.8 does and does not establish
The current patch notes are reported to fix a Ligia task option becoming locked. That is a UI or task-state correction; it does not by itself prove the complete father-survival recruitment route. Keep the trigger and the fix as separate evidence lines.
Patch 1.0.10 follow-up fixes
The official 1.0.10 notes add fixes for Ligia's Basalt Isles Unexpected Outcome follow-up and a conflict between the lamp and mermaid cure paths. These are quest-state corrections; they do not replace the separate test for keeping her father alive and receiving the recruitment invite.
- Fixed: Basalt Isles Unexpected Outcome follow-up in Ligia's storyline
- Fixed: lamp/mermaid cure conflict
- Keep father survival, next-audience timing, and recruitment as separate checks
- Evidence state: official patch fixes / recruitment route replay pending
Branch-safe testing
Save before the Southbay decision, record whether the father survives, then compare the next audience and roster state. Do not change several regional choices in the same replay, or a missing invite cannot be attributed to Ligia's branch.
- Father survives: continue and check the next audience
- Father dies: record the resulting Southbay leadership state
- Option unavailable: compare against the 1.0.8 patch state
- No invite: retain the save and report the exact cycle and dialogue
