Ok I've been having trouble with this dude...I've read the tips about casting magic resistance and then harm on him and it greatly reduces his hp but for some reason I can't cast harm. From then on, I'm keeping him busy with worthless skeleton dudes while I wail on him from long range with 2 archers and 2 mage type people. The mages don't do jack though since he's got magic resistance and harm didn't work. Any ideas to help me beat this guy?

Well if you have a F/M or a bard I like to cast Prot. From Magic wepaons and then get the attention on that fella, then get all the tanx around him and hack the shit out of him while the mages cast lower resistance then blast him with Abi Dazlams and other powerful offensive spells.

Casting only one lower magic spell is not enough. To have a good chance being able to cast your spells you need to lower it by at least 60%.

I am a Level 9 Paladin, I have Jaheira, Minsc, Yoshimo, Aerie, and Nalia. Maybe I am just too weak for this right now? Maybe I should just come back later?

Yes u r 2 earyl.... though I have done it at lvl 10 on normal settings.....

o btw

Thanks for the help and replies guys...

no problem.... o and BTW..... If its ur first time then dont fight Firkraag until after the 'adventure' u go on (i.e. Chapter 6)

This is a very cheap way to kill Fikraag, but.....

I see you have Yoshimo in your party. Lay as many traps as you can, and then rest. Repeat process until you have around 20 traps. Force attack him from a distance. As soon as he turns hostile he dies. Its cheap but it works.

Actually, I would recommend that you go after Firkraag as soon as you are able, since your main char is a Paladin. Firkraag has a certain item that you will find extremely useful....especially on your 'adventure' that starts after chap 3.....

Also, there is a quest that you will be given as part of your stronghold quest series (from the Order of the Most Radiant Heart) to kill the red lizard, and if you wait until you get the quest, you will get more EXP for doing it.
