argrghrgh was all going so well, durlags tower completed after some nice tactics got me through, loads of exp and excellent equipment, even my wizard walking around with standard ac of 0, everything was looking good, till i walked downstairs in that cultist basement, argrghrghrghrhgrghh i cannot beat the fecker without losing a party member, my current tactic which has got me closest is:
soon as i enter before talking starts back everyone up away, after talking is finished and obviously with everyone having been tanked and warded gainst fear etc monster summoning with everything i got which fills the room with about 40 monsters or so, now most of these keep the demon busy whilst the rest hack up the acolytes, once demon is busy i work round the edges and kill the acolytes with my party whilst trying to zap the demon with my wizard, but for some reason despite the demon being surrounded by lots of animals etc he still finds time to always target at least one party member with death gaze (if not the whole lot when hes being really mean) and then im dead in a few rounds and held to boot.
so what are my options, i dont want to lose a party member, i tried dispel magic and that worked but he just death gazes straight away again, can i reflect the gaze or ward against it in any way?, does the demon have any specific weaknesses, are there any potions or scrolls that may help? (i have a barrel in beregost with basically every scroll or potion in the game in it which i was saving for a tough fight)
i given up on him for the moment to finish off some of the baldurs gate quests before act 6 but i want to take him down and no amount of hitpoints or thac0 helps gainst this guy
