After repeatedly being kicked by liches I finally built up some set-traps skill on my solo Fighter/Mage/Thief and wandered off the meet the liches... now they are a peice of cake.. the first time I did the good old underhanded ttick of planting 4 traps where the lich materialises, which was no fun..

1)Lich appears
2)Lich be threatening
**BOOM**
3)Lich be dead.

that was boring and I didn't get the experience for the pit fiend..

SO I reduced the number of traps and got to pummel him to death with Melfs Minute Meteors... a most useful spell indeed.. hehehehe... cloudkill was also no fun

Old Mr K is gonna go down hard when I put all his bits together
