After talking to Lonk and giving him 2000gp I get teleported into Jon's lab and no matter what I do, he always kills at least one of my party (sometimes two). I don't have any resurrection spells (nor do I know where to get them)so I am SOL.

Any suggestions?

Thanks!

You have to organize the other mages to help you in the battle.

aye its quite amusin, seein tha big bad irenicus tremor infront of a mob of looneys (: *tsk tsk*
personly i think irencus sucks, i mean thsoe dreams and stuff just ruin the game...personly i wish they had put a whole lot more quests into the game and forgotten about irenicus his boring (-:

<font color="teal"> I think that Irenicus is a bit of a B****** but neway... The Fight really isnt very hard... Make sure u take out ur Clones first... then attack Irenicus... then after that try to heal as much as u can so the murderer's dont backstab u to death :( </font>

i've found that the looneys can pretty much take out Irenicus by themselves. Just back off, kill your clones, breach Jonny's protections, and use missile weapons. Almost always sombody will run up and be the next likely target for a finger of death. Wanev also pulls a nice Time Stop combo.

As for Ressurection spells, clerics can cast Raise Dead, Jaheira can cast Harper's Call, and hitching a ride with Saemon will allow you access to a temple that might be able to do it. Otherwise, they'll be dead for QUITE a while.

Pull all your party members to the far end of the room and only send one archer or so closer to attack. Irenicus usually casts his A.Wilting on whoever is attacking him, so Tiax got fried when I played. Just temporarily withdraw.

I always felt so sorry for the crazy mages, they didn't deserve to die but Irenicus killed them. Just means more justice when I kill him myself ;)

Well, I played with a Wizardslayer throughout the game (I had this funny feeling that I'd be fighting lots of powerful mages - and I was right). It makes the game quite a bit easier.

The only problem with using a Wizard Slayer is the Magic Weapons and Armor only bit, other than that, I do like Wizard Slayers.

That's odd--in my last two games, the Spellhold Irenicus went down in about 10 seconds, including Wanev's Timestop, and none of my guys even got touched. That's because Jon doesn't have any protections up when you teleport in, so all you have to to is hit Pause as soon as he finishes his dialogue and open fire with a few Magic Missiles. BAM, whatever it was Jonny intended to cast is now gone, along with 3/4 of his HP. So sorry.
