Magic protects against both forms, leaving them unable to hurt you. Of course, you've got to deal *massive* damage to actually get anywhere with him. I normally end up getting him to nearly dead when he panics and flies around the crypt. At this point he's too quick to actually catch - a few well placed traps will get him at that point without *quite* as much cheese as Dundee's suggestion.
Of course, the only reason for that is that I never got the hang of aiming the RotR [img]smile.gif[/img]
7 Spike Traps to handle the first form, read the scroll of Protection from Undead while he is rambling about how much more powerful you have made him, then play musical taps on his head with the Mace of Disruption.

Protection from Magic scrolls are very, very precious and should only be used as a last resort. Unless you use the clone trick of course.
