I killed him the hard way, but their was a 'trick' to killing him (learned this after I reloaded near him, then killing him again, and again), what you can do is bad up RIGHT AWAY, because Xanther will throw death spells, fireball and Disintegrate at you, he won't follow through the door, so what you can now do is go back in (when his side is in your direction) and attack, back up, and repeat till he is dead.
I Didn't know about the wand of Sylvias until I played it a 2nd time
I've played EOB about 50 times now, and one time I beat it in 5 hrs 40mins!
(I didn't do all the 'special quests' on every level during that speed test though.
Favorite scary area - Drow! and those damn Spiders.... ugh! (I didn't even have a sound card at the time, but the PC Speaker WAS pretty good for it's time)
