Are you on a challenge run?
I'm playing on medium (standard) difficulty, but I needed a full party at level 3-4 to clear that entire area. There are parts that are tough due to quantity of opponents, and parts that are tough due to quality of opponents.
I'm not sure how you'd clear it with only two characters.
That is my problem! I missed the other companions.
Do you already have Withers in your camp? If so get 2 hirelings in the meantime. They only cost 100 or 200 gold. No reason to stay as 2. I too made a similar mistake and only had 3 party memembers for a big part of Act 1 until I got a hireling. And the game is just balanced around having 4 members in your party. It also doesn't affect XP.
I walked around and now I have withers and 4 companions! I think I have done most of the exploring so gonna go try the camp again.
Still can't find that tree bark cuz I failed my nature check, but if I really want I can look up the location :(
Barrels of oil and smokepowder dropped from height works pretty well.
