I know what you mean, Gimli, about the 2nd half of the final battle. That said, the first half of the final battle doesn't really have to be that tough.

As I'm sure you discovered, the twins are nearly invulnerable for a pretty fair number of rounds at the start of the funal battle. They're every bit as buffed up as you should be.

This is why I never personally engage them during the first engagement. I focus entirely on thaking out their allies and any summons. And I let my monk allies (assuming that I've got them) keep the twins busy. And I'll summon monsters of my own to keep them busy. Hell, I've even healed a monk or 2 just to keep them going to kill time fighting the twins, rather than fight them myself.

However, once the twins' buffs wear out, it's time to hit them HARD and FAST. And be ready to do the same thing once they jump over to the other room, i.e. the 2nd half of the battle.
