Ok...I'm at the final part of the asylum in Chapter 4 (where you fight Irenicus), and in every walkthrough I've seen, it says that after you beat on him enough, he runs away and leaves a bunch of assassins for you to fight. WELL, everyone is dead except for my party and Irenicus and I keep hitting him for like 10 minutes straight, inflicting easliy over 1000 points of damage, but his hitpoints just remain at 'Near Death' and he never runs away! Did anyone else have this problem, or can someone help me? PLEASE HELP!!!

1stly, welcome to IW! http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...es/xyxwave.gif I daresay it is one of the friendliest boards around. Drop by at the General Discussions forum when you have the time!

On to your query - it seems to me that this is a bug. Have you installed the latest patch? If you have maybe you could reload from an earlier save and try again.

OTOH, you could go to Baldurdash - there are many, many unofficial fixes and tweaks available to suash almost all of the bugs that the official patches didn't get.

You might want to try some of those instant death type spells. That might jog the computer into continuing the story.

These types of bugs allways come from the dialogue-problem ...
Irenicus is not supposed to die in that first fight, but the "near-death"-fase
should trigger a dialogue and him leaving.
For instance:
If you fight bodhi with an protection from undead scroll she will never die, because the scroll wont allow her to say her last dying words.
It seems probable, that in this case too, you're doing something that doesnt allow Irenicus to talk to you. Though I cant really think of anything ...
Try to just simply fight him again, using allmost no protection from anything's.
So that way you'll know if that was the problem.

P.s. think about invisibility or something like that
anywayz, a reload will be required
hope this helps a little bit

Did you feeblemind him? That can screw up triggers pretty well sometimes.
