I would like to stop using Bloodlust with my fighter, but infortunately something weird has happened with him. When I give him another sword, he only gets one attack per round and one swing. With Bloodlust he gets 2-3 attackers per round with 2-4 swings per attack.
I know that he will get LESS attacks without Bloodlust since its initiative is so high, but he should be getting more than one. He even got more than one back when he was level 5 or 6 and I hand't even gotten Bloodlust.
Have you switched the fighter into Bezerk mode after removing Bloodlust? or have you got him on the standard weapon attack? You have to manually put him into bezerk mode if you havent done so previously.

So anyway, what were you doing so much damage with that you were able to average over 200Hps a round to her?? My spells that she didn't manage to resist outright were only doing about 2-10hps at their max level I could cast and my fighter, when he was able to do damage, would get about 50hps worth each round. With my other guys all added up, I was doing about 100-120 per round if everybody hit and penetrated, and that was with her held/sleeping. Without sleep, take 50hps off since my fighter for some reason did NONE every hit.
High weapon skills, combat skills. Weapons with effects that make it easier to kill Nessie. Use Fang, Dread spear, etc. (weapons that are decent dmg). For Nessie you dont need to cats on her. All you need to do is put up superman and make sure you have either the Heal All spell or a couple of Heal All scrolls. You shouldnt be dying in 1 cast of a spell/breath attack at level 15 unless you havent been putting up spells such as Soul Shield, Elemental Shield & Magic Screen. Putting up Eye 4 Eye will add some dmg to her fi she "does" cast a spell on you. My normal party that i like to play when im bored is of a:
Felpurr Samurai - Fang - Enchanted Waz.
Fairie Ninja - Cane of Corpus - Sai/Sprites Dagger
Rogue - Bloodlust - Thieves Dagger
Bard - 3x X-Bow - Hunter Quarrels
2x Elf Bishops. Doom Staff on 1 Bishop. Disruptor Mace on other with shield.
With that group at level 15 i could take down Nessie without breaking a sweat or having a character die.
On another note so you know how those characetrs are developed. this is how i work on my stats for each char.
Class---1st stats-2nd stats
Samurai-Spd & Str-Dex & Sen
Ninja---Spd & Str-Dex & Sen
Rogue---Spd & Dex-Str & Sen
Bard----Spd & Sen-Dex & Int (i get str upto 60 then use 2 Rings of the Road)
Bishops-Int & Pie-Str & Vit
