The only way I got it to work was to spread out all my characters to reduce the breath effect. Cast stoneskin on all the mages, haste and resist fear on the whole group. Then hit him with as many breach and magic missiles as you can while your fighters tear into him from several directions. Minor spell sequencer is handy if you rest before the fight (use it for two more magic missiles). If your mages are not high enough level to cast breach then it's going to be a long uphill struggle.
Its basically a fight against time - can you bring him down before he does too much damage. He tends to concentrate on individuals so sometimes you can lead him round by the nose while everybody else keeps spellcasting. I didn't bother with summoned creatures because they waste valuable spellcasting time and one death spell and their history.
