The last time I killed Firkragg I used a methodical approach.First you get everyone armorered and armed as best as possible with the lowest AC you can manage. I have Jansen cast two cloudkills through the fog of war. As soon as the second cloudkill disipates .I take the boots of speed off of Jan, While Anomen and Minsc make a frontal assault, I circle around behind him. Jan casts Breach and spellthrust. Firkragg will usually knock back the frontal assault,at which point I start attacking him from behind.Giving the frontal assault team time to regroup. Jan will cast a cloudkill on Firkragg, while I run madly around him fleeing for my life, careful to keep the red devil in the center of the Cloudkill. By this time Anomen and Minsc have returned to the attack giving me a reprieve. As soon as he turns on them I attack him from behind once again. This seems to work well on him and the last time I tackled him he curled up and died on my first attempt and I lost no one,though I had to wait a while for Minsc to regain consciousness. I usually tackle Firkragg before leaving for Spellhold so I would guessitimate my party level is around 12-13.
As for the Black Dragon in Suldanesselar I usually go with a frontal assault while Minsc and Jaheira call down lightning on him.The last time through Jan had Mordenkainen's sword memorized and we cast that ,the dragon ignored me ,focused all his attacks on the sword,which he couldn't hurt;and was dead in seconds.
