faceman, you must have reloaded many times to have accomplished that because drizzt's armour class is so low even a backstab will miss more often than not.

not to be skeptical... but i'd like to see a screen shot of you standing around his corpse [img]smile.gif[/img]
You can read up on my exploits in my solo monk story. I did not have to reload since the tactic is an infinite loop. You don't need to hit him every time. The only problem are Critical Misses in which case Drizzt will be able to strike back immediately before you can run away. In that case you have to gulp some potions to get back to full health before you continue, but it IS a surefire way.

I did it but I forget how. ^^;

It had something to do with luring him out towards a lake and attacking him with a volley of arrows when erm. . .his pathfinding went wonky. .

few arrows can hit

i did it this morning. I didn't save it ofcoarse, i am not worthy of that XP for killing him [img]tongue.gif[/img]

i used gatekeeper just to test it out, i boosted by strength to 25 and dexterity to 25, and THACO to 0. Hit him every time and made him into nothing, though without cheating it is not possible (that is if you consider dirty tactics cheating as i do)

It's cheesy because anyone with half a brain (which is at least as much as Drizzt is reputed to have) would be smart enough to attack the Mage, not the creatures summoned by the Mage. Now, this would not be a cheesy tactic against Skeletons or Golems, because they're all as dumb as a post. But an intelligent creature is smart enough to recognize the real target....or run all the way around a pond, for that matter.

Timothy, if your fight took place in Salvatore's novels, then Drizzt would fling a few daggers into your mage, dive into a forward roll past the flailing mass of summoned creatures, shred Minsc with hardly a thought along with any other tanks, then end the life of your entire remaining party. Being an intelligent warrior, he would probably evade the summoned monsters, knowing that they would dissappear before long.

Oh, and he wouldn't be alone. He may just fight the summoned monsters, knowing that Cattie-Brie will plug your mage full of arrows from her hiding spot
