If you don't mind losing a couple of items, like Carsomyr or maybe a cloak of shielding, you can always use my magic resistance, greater malison, flesh to stone method (patent applied). Kills him off quickly, and since I don't keep paladins around long and Carsomyr only sells for about 5,000 gp, it doesn't worry me. Well, unless the petrification messes around with my precious red dragon scales. The other way is the talk, hit method. That just seems a little too cheap for my liking, though.
