Ruby Ray of Reversal is the best spell for removing all those high level protections they cast on themselves.

This is the cheese of the Mace of Disruption. Undead must save versus death with a -4 penalty or be slained immediately.

You may refer to the link in my signature for a mini-guide on Kangaxx the Demi-Lich.

but the weapon is designed to kill undead(persumably by some fanactical whorshipers of good, possibly lawful good god)
What better use is there than fighting a powerful demilich with it? it's fulfilling it's purpose to the greatest extent. when i fought him w/ my latest party i used the mace of disruption +2 but i don't think that's what killed him. even with the -4 saving throw, he's a demilich he has great saving throws. He said it was like his 10th attempt, that's just lazy if you ask me, if he had just fought the battle he would have won on his first or second try(proably)

Actually, Demi-Liches are very vulnerable to the Mace of Disruption. Their saving throws are not that fantastic, and the MoD has a -4 penalty too. It is the best weapon to use against a Demi-Lich, since you have a 60% chance of killing him on the first hit.

I am not saying that you shouldn't use the MoD. ;) I am just commenting that it is very powerful against Demi-Liches. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Will Crom Faeyr hit him? And what about Carosmyr?
They should do the job quick enough I think when my fighters are hasted. Also My Archer uses a +3 long bow. Will it hit him?

OK, the ten reloads were a bit of an exageration it was more like three. However I had tried to beat him before but gave up so all together maybe it was ten. The thing is I could not beat him without using the cheese way as some people call it (Protection from undead with mace of disruption + 2) which is perfectly valid for those non-suicidal players. The only other way I would attempt to beat him without this method is after coming from the underdark with 4 or 5 Freedom scrolls so I could get back my NPC's that he sends to God knows were unless of course your willing to lose your NPC's for that lenght of time or solo afterwards.

Both Crom Faeyr and Carsomyr are capable of hitting Kangaxx. [img]smile.gif[/img]
It won't be as quick as you think, though - Kangaxx's physical immunities are very high - you can only deal about 1-3 points of damage to him, and to add insult to injury - he regenerates, too!

About your Archer... It is not the Long Bow's enchantment that determines whether it can't hit Kangaxx or not - It's the arrows'.
And since there are no 'non-phantom' +4 Arrows in the game... :(

Argh, well I use the ring of the ram then and he got like 20 hp left. Then I got ten sec to beat him up with carosmyr and crom faeyr.I'll guess ill just have to try then.
Does turn undead work on the demi lich?

There's another good weapon for Kangaxx: Flame Tongue +1 (+4 vs. undead). If memory serves well, it's found during the "Druid Grove" quest. In my last game, Soulafein made a "Paté Du Kangaxx" all by himself using this sword...

What I'd like to know is if the L9 "Black Blade of Disaster" spell hits Kangaxx. It's supposed to act like a +5 sword...
