This is my party :

Me - Avenger Druid 28
sarevok - fighter 25
viconia - cleric 39
edwin - mage 29

I've killed about 20 mereliths, 50 glabrezu's and 15 or so balors ....
They're not really a problem anymore at this level, and its earning me some XP, but i cant reach Demogorgon.
I have the patch installed that makes him tougher
( as he was originally meant to be ), but i cant hit him !!!

I've thrown everything i have at him, Edwin's energy disc had a total to-hit-roll of -28- , and it was a miss !
Sarevoks Whirlwind attacks dont hit him even once, and i can only stay in the little circular arena for a small time, since he keeps on Gating in demons after demons when he sees my party.

The only thing i havent tryed yet is :

Use edwin, while the rest of the party stays way out of sight, cast Time-stop ( i know he's immune, but the demons are not).
Spell-trigger, 3 Pierce Magic ( MR down 60 % )
Improved alacrity and everything above fifth spell-lvl i have

I'd really like to hear your story's of defeating the
Improved Demogorgon.

Oh, and it is true that he's immune to everything up to lvl 5 spells right ? ( else im using Lower Resistance and skull-traps)

Thx for any replies

I haven't reached WK yet in my newly started game with the ascension mod etc. installed but I would wager a guess that youu need at least very highly enchanted weapons to hit Demogorgon as well as high level spells. Pierce magic and Breach might be useful too. I'll let you know when I get there and face him (if succesfully that is)

And you know that you're only to blame yourself, right?
Ain't it great, to patch, modify and improve games and then get frustrated because of it?

As far as I know the mod changes the end / outcome of the story. The improvement mods do as the name says: improve the opponents

Yeah, the improved bosses are all different patches,as is the patch that alters the scripting ...
Ascension alters the scripting and the other patches you can download as you see fit .... though once installed, they dont uninstall easily...

YEAH !!! [img]graemlins/firedevil.gif[/img]
I destroyed abazigal, his 4 pets and his purple girlfriend !!!!!!!!

Mwuhahaha, unloaded 5 dragon's breaths on the wee-ones in the beginning. Then finished the job with sarevok, I and viconia had summoned a fallen deva and Chan during that time, keeping abazigal busy.

We all fled..ehr, i mean ... heroically walked pretty fast, to the opposite corner, where we tried to regain strenght.

This didnt really work, 'cause the big purple birdie was storming at us ... Edwin's time-stop and Improved alacrity got interrupted and he was soon surrounded by ice-salamanders. So while he was busy buffing up his defenses ...it took 1 deva, 2 elemental princes, 2 insect swarms and about 5 /6 greater whirlwinds to take miss.biggy out.

Unfortunately i allmost lost vinconia in the process, who was running around quite scared, improved hasted and with boots of speed .. DARN!! that's fast !!!

Anywayz, the 4 small ones gone, same for the purple one, abazigal was kinda hanging around the corner i entered his cave ( he didnt see where i had gone, being busy fighting summons and all that)

So when he finally realized something was up ... he faced an entirely healed party: Me (avenger druid), Viconia, Edwin and Sarevok ...
an improved hasted Deva, an improved hasted Prince of earth,
a juggernaut golem and two mordekainen's swords.
After his Magic resistance was lowered twice, all that was topped by a storm of vengeance and a few energy blades.

He had a lot of HP, but no time to cast heal .. so he went down relatively fast [img]smile.gif[/img]

This is probably the most chaotic and boring post you ever read, but he , im happy and wanna share it

This is shameless self-promotion, and I apologise in advance.

Improved Demogorgan


Spoiler One, the magic way.

Spoiler Two, the hacking way.

Improved Abazigal


The Magic Way

Melissan


The Magic Way

It should be interesting when my solo Archer hits ToB with all the mods enabled. [img]smile.gif[/img]

nice !!

Project image infinite summon-limit never seems to work for me though ... probably some unwanted effect of a baldurdash fix-pack

I like soloing too, but its my first time through ToB, so i kinda wanted a party again ... just not too big, 3 fighters having whirlwinds 's gonna be a wee bit boring me thinks

Anywayz, great stories ya got [img]smile.gif[/img] , i like the accompanied sceenshots a lot too, helps with visualizing.
Though my favorite would still be how you defeated the cowles,
heheh, the irony of it all
