I struggled with them too.

One tactic is to approach them slowly, to draw one out at a time. They're typically in groups of three, a warrior, rogue and cleric. If you can single them out, they're much easier to kill. Use a bow or crossbow to attack the nearest one.

The casters are tough, and have good concentration. The clerics can usually cast heal twice, which means a complete heal. Use knockdown or some other disabling strike to disrupt their casting.

And, like others have said, watch out for that death magic. My monk made it through without immunity to death magic, but I had to reload at least five or six times. Save often and keep trying.

Lastly, watch out for Death Slaads in the next area. They have death magic too, and you'll face some where you can't fight them immediately.
