WELCOME TO IRONWORKS!

Demons can be a real pain, especially with all of their friends. Just some helpful hints:

Demons use a lot of mental abilities (people who fought them in PnP remember that!). At the very least, buff yourself with magics that boost your saving throws (potions or spells), if not ones that let you resist mental abilities (Remove Fear, Free Action, and Chaotic Commands, for example).
Summons are your best friends in these battles. The stronger the better, as demons do a lot of damage on hitting.
Buff yourself, especially with Haste, Improved Haste, etc. You will need all of the edge that you can get.
You need higher than +1 weapons to hit (I forget off hand whether it is +2 or +3). Make sure your tank is using such weapons.
And finally, remember that you were sent to get how many hearts? If need be, just kill one (good to kill all 3 for xp, but if party is too weak then don't worry about killing all 3).

Just some hints!
