I just got the quest from the dwarf guy in the Underdark to kill this demon and fill up a big hole or something. I can't kill this guy. I've tried every strategy I could think of, the bastard just won't die. Any ideas?

My party (Me/Link - barbarian, Minsc, Jaheira, Keldorn, Aerie, Imoen) killed the demon after 4 times. I placed my mages (Imoen and Aerie) at the far end of the hole, cos the demon shows up at the other end. Then I made Jaheira summon two Fire Elementals, and placed the rest of the team (Link, Keldorn, Minsc, Jaheira, and the FE's) in a circle around the hole. The demon shows up, stunning just one or two persons. The rest will attack him, and Aerie and Imoen shot him with spells (Lower Resistance!!).. That's how i did it.

I used the Kai ability of my kensai to hit the demon (to play safe, I always use +2 or better weapons against more powerful enemies). Also got Viconia to cast blade barrier before the demon appeared. Imoen and Jan were at the back shooting at the demon and lowering its resistance. Poor Minsc and Jaheira were knocked out though.

can you hurt him at all? if you cannot, then something about your weapon is wrong

if you can hurt it, then you can kill it!

Protection from Evil radius, it worked with my party. Clerics do alot of good damage against demons

Thanks for the tips guys. Haven't quite beaten him yet, but I'm getting there. So far I've gotten him down to badly injured. It's the stun effect that he uses thats really killing me. My main character (archer) has no effect on the creature, even with a +3 bow, 3 attacks per rounds and arrows of piercing. I don't understand why that wouldn't have any effect. Also, he kills my elementals and nymphs and even my wyrven in a matter of a few rounds. I'm gonna keep trying and trying though. Like all beasties, he must fall sometime!

IIRC, Arrows of Piercing is either non-enchanted or +1 ammunition.

You need to use the white and yellow colour, +2 Arrows.

What level Clerics and Mages do you have? Animate Dead is a great spell if they are Lvl 15 and above. Skeleton Warriors are highly magic resistant so they will most probably shrug off the stun spells.

Clerics can also cast Remove Paralysis, a Lvl 2 clerical spell. Dispel Magic can also remove held effects.

Try casting Lower Resist and Greater Malison on the Demon, then bombard it with Magic Missile, to help your fighters.
