As soon as you get to the island you are going to have to buff. If you don't have a cleric that turns undead, or can cast undead ward you will have a hard time. However a mage that has buff spells like haste should get you through the battles, other battles on the island may require tactics that use the landscape. The Island isn't a simple hack and slash. A druid that can turn into a water or earth elemental can handle the drowned dead himself while other members attack from afar. What level is your party at and how much of the original game did you do? HoW is suppose to be much harder than IWD. The game is not unbalanced you are just going to find different tactics to use against the creatures in HoW. It would be easier to help if we know the party, and levels.
