TotLM SPOILERS

Well it has been over a month. I finally got around to another couple hours of IWD. Although I have traversed most of IWD and the expansions more than once, this is a part I have not yet seen. I must be near the end of the TotLM expansion; because things are getting tough...

I am in the castle dungeon, past the point of no return, in with the jackal warriors and such, and just entered the room with Harpies and Infernal Harpies. I was totally unprepared the first time (other than doing the habitual save before entering room). On the second attempt I poured on a few buffs before entering, fired off at least three Entangles, and let the Berserkers loose. (Sigh.) When I return for the third attempt I will have the Mage -AND- Bard StoneSkinned, everyone else buffed to the max, and have more than one Fireball at my disposal. Might have to use Slow and that despised Haste spell. Meanwhile, anyone who has been there, how did you survive?

EDIT: More to the point --> I know I could ginsu these guys if I could just keep my party from panicking. Please remind me of the spells and songs to protect against harpie-induced panic. I had the Bard singing the Strongheart song (immunity to fear); but that is evidently not the right one. Sing the song for Immunity to sound attacks? What are the Cleric spells for this (I know there is at least one very good one)?
