\I'am in the sewers right now doing the Eyeless Cult quest and I'am at the bridge were you have to answer 3 questions to get the bridge across the gap and then I go across and attack the {i believe Elder Orbs} I die after about seven hits. Just to let you know I am imune to all physical and magical attacks but the still kill me. The resons why my character is like is because I have completed BG2 7 times already and I want to get all of the NPC quests done and the romances. Any help would be appreciated

Have your Thief 'Stealth' and walk forwards till she JUST sees the first of 'em, dimly, (make sure she doesn't have a bow in her hand in case she shoots) then go back and have your Mages toss Fireballs over there to soften 'em up good, and any other 'area' spells you have. Some of 'em will die and they rest will be hurt, so when they start coming at you and throw their nasty little magics at you, your team (some of 'em anyway!) will still be able to move around and kill 'em without TOO much trouble. http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...iles/smile.gif

Summon a couple of fire elementals and let the walk across the bridge by themselves usually solves your problem.

You can try the spell hold monster. It doesn't last very long, but you can hold up to 4 beholders (gauth in that situation,I think).

If it's Elder Orbs they're probably Imprisoning you. Go berserk or use Spell Shield vs Abjuration. Otherwise just send lots of summoned critters in with you out of sight of them

The easiest way to kill them is to use cloud kill,even easier if you do it before solving the riddle....they can't chase you!

I am imune to all magical attacks so how can they imprision me like that

Actually I think their only mazing you but doesnt really make a difference your still out for most of the fight. They are casting cause wounds so I dont think immune to magic energy wizard spell does anything against it and I dont think it helps against maze either. Try casting magic resistance cause that does protect from maze if its high enough.

The way to avoid "making her shoot" is to turn off your party AI. http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...iles/smile.gif

If you don't have the Baldurdash patch (NOT an official patch) the Elder Orb's death ray is NOT affected by magic resistance, just by your saving throw. They probably hit you with Greater Malison first which lowers your saving throw, then Death Ray.
