It's the most typical error usually done, but it's more because of the way the game is done. When Kangaxx the Lich screams that when he dies, he will be "really released", most of the people slap on the Protection from Undead, which makes you invisible to the demi-lich. HOWEVER! If the demi-lich DOES NOT see your party members, then it will NOT trigger his "speech", and then he simply will NOT die. He can be "Near Death" and you can whack the wazoos out of him like never before, but he simply will not die.



This is exactly right. It's easier to use a Protection from Magic scroll, available from the Adventurers Mart. Cast it on the dude who will do the bashing with the +4 weapon and Kangaxx's Imprisonment spell will have no effect.

A cheaper option if you don't quite have the cash for Staff of Rynn is the Flame Tongue which is a +1 sword, but is rated +4 in terms of what it can hit. It's about a third of the price.
