Um... has anyone successfully made an Oathbreaker Paladin with the Dark Urge character? Maybe spoilers? (lemm.ee)

I don't want to spoil this for anyone, however, something seems very very off to a point where I am doomed to fail in early Act 1. I created the Paladin, broke the oath, became an oathbreaker. Went off to the druid village, did the usual quests. Specifically - interacting with the musical tiefling who is writing a song.
Upon my first attempt for a full rest after that, something happens where I seemingly pretty much fucked over my game with my level 3 party. Other than avoiding that quest or avoiding being an oathbreaker at that point, my only option is reroll non-dark urge or go way back to a much earlier save. I do not believe having a dark urge oathbreaker paladin early on is doable.

Anyone else have this experience?

You got me curious enough to try to understand the mechanics of what you mean, since I thought if you already were oathbreaker there’s no problem

I see one post from someone saying the oathbreaker knight can aggro you, depending on which camp you rest at. Most will be fine, but some place the knight close enough to be angry

Is that your issue?

We were camping inside the cathedral where you find Withers. Specifically, we made camp in the room where the 4 people attack you. I didn't realize it was a proximity thing. Thanks for the input. That game may be salvageable after all.

Glad to help, I think most here were confused because there’s otherwise no issue with oathbreaker subclass and murder lol
