Temple in Southeast Wilderness...uh, help - Page 2

I believe I was around level 15 or 16 when I did this battle. You must have Magic Screen, Armorplate, Missile Screen, and Enchanted Blade active before the battle. I managed it by moving to the doorway triggering the battle then first round casting element shield, soul shield, and eye for an eye. Second round I moved around the corner just slightly. The Death Knights kindly casted Death Cloud on me which rebounded and killed the elementals and most of the sorcerers. They started to charge me indvidually and I easily beat them down. Then I walked in and mopped up the Death Knights. I think I had a few character deaths but I resurected them during the battle.

No, you don't have to clear the temple, but think of the sense of accomplishment you'll feel if you work out a way for your party to do it. Not to mention that you might find something you like in there.

I wouldn't advocate trying it until you have the big protection spells, though...which makes me wonder, has anybody out there fought this battle successfully with a melee-based party?

I just finished this last night.

What I did was simply to get their attention on the first round.
Then run away and HIDE on the second round at this time, the cultist would have summoned elementals.
Then the Queen will rush you but since you are hidden from the rest, they wont follow. Only the queen WILL follow through.
At this point you have an 8 vs 1 queen combat. easy fight.

Then you can lure the others using Lava Lamp or hypnotic lure.

I was lucky to have a bard using that heal all guitar. I literrally am 100% health every round. my bishop keeps on REST ALL. and the 6 keeps on attacking.

I had little luck going head on with the bunch as like you, my party was level 12~14.

I'm missing *way* too many spells to deal with the temple for quite some time, from the look of it. My priest and psionic just aren't up to it and won't be for a level or three, I guess.

All you need is a cleric with Instant Death spell at a high lvl [img]smile.gif[/img] i got picks of before battle and during with elementals and 1 dead cultist. Just have magic screen and soul shield on and rush them. there elementals are just as weak as yours [img]smile.gif[/img] my rogue only uses spiked stone for knock-out so does my robot make sure you get your elemental with all your boosts or he will die quick too...
