I haven't had real trouble with my party and now at least I use dispells really often but since you've got to fight Melissan like 3 times or something I don't want to run out of dispells and I didn't see any buffs coming up but from your posts I see she has them.

I don't have any thief with high level traps since I think that's cheating a bit. I shouldn't really have trouble lol. Party is me, cleric/mage not reached the cap yet but not low level either. Somewhere around 20/21 IIRC. Edwin level 21, Keldorn level 26 or 27, Sarevok level 26/27, Korgan level 26/27, Jan don't know which level but he can't cast level 9 spells yet. I'll try again tomorrow but it looks like I'll go playing this again trough all SoA as well.

I think I'll get the battle done sometime. It was just general stuff not that I really tried hard yet (2 times) but I thought I have troubles with my tactics cause I play at low difficulty and just some monsters don't go well.

The only reason I choose to cast stoneskin before the fight is that you don't have to do it in the fight but mostly you can see it coming when the mages are in danger.

Thanks for the help!
