Spell Immunity: Conjuration- for immunity to the Acidic Backlash
Improved Haste + Offensive Spin + Boots of Speed- to help deal out damage as well as to outrun him if necessary
Breach- to remove his PfMW after waiting out 14 rounds for his SIs to run out
Remove Magic- to remove his Mirror Images/Stoneskins
Stoneskin- to help live long enough to cast Breach
Mirror Image- to help live long enough to cast Breach as well as to have a buffer against Death Fog
PfMW- when you finally attack him
Fire Shields- to help create a chain of Acidic Backlashes in melee against him after he's been Breached; you'll be immune to the Acidic Backlash (might require a couple of SIs), but he won't be immune to both FSs
Spell Immunity: Abjuration- to take his Remove MAgic and Breach out of the picture

Order of operation:

Buff with Mirror Image, Improved Haste, Offensive Spin, and SI: Abjuration during the fight. The SI is most likely the most important of the lot, followed by Improved Haste, then Offensive Spin. You should have Stoneskin on originally. Mirror Image comes next. Dodge the Death Fogs. Buy a Spell Sequencer (from Bernard if necessary), and load it up with a Stoneskin/Mirror Image/Slow + the 2 Fireshields). It would also be helpful to get a wand of Spell Striking from WK so that you can save some level 5 slots.

You try to last out his SIs. Then, re-cast SI: Abjuration, SI: Conjuration, Breach, and Remove Magic as fast as possible. After the Remove Magic, cast PfMW, then attack him. Cast the Spell Sequencer ASAP. He should die very shortly afterwards. If you're still having trouble, then after the SI, cast Slow to get rid of the Haste, then the Spell Sequencer one should Slow him for real.

ADD] If you're having a lot of trouble hitting him, then buy one of the potions that increase your strength from Roger the Fence. If after that, you're still having trouble, after the whole long list of debuff'ing, etc., try adding in Tenser's Transformation.
