It's a hard fight that can be made easy...you shouldn't have give up though,,,you was so close to the end of TotSC.

Aye, Lavi, you are right about that 'mage' at the Nashkel Cemetary, took me awhile though, now that I think about it, those warders were the most frustrating. Point well taken...

Wow, so many long, sleepless nights of reloads to choose from... but in the end, I'd have to go with the 4 warders in DT. I think I stopped counting at reload number 15 before I finally got close to beating them... bastards. An honorable mention goes out to the Wolfwere fights and to the previously-mentioned Demon.

I used to think the warders, as the first time I ever fought them they were impossible.

Later times, I have just breezed through it.

Baldurans Ship final fight, I've never breezed...

I think that the basilisk map is fairly hard. On my first time I didn't know there was that many and I only had 1 potion of mirrored eyes It took me many times to get past and I have to reload lots. The next time I went in there I wasn't the ones being screwed.

when asking for help it always good to list your party, but if youre talking about the 1st time you run into them then i would give imoen the boots of avoidence, and the girdle of piercing and have her disarm the 1st trap and run her to the back of your party. Then when the skeleton comes up, crush him with your tanks. Use Haste and potions of giant strength if necessary, you should have plenty in your inventory by now.

My hardest fights were the area after the Catacombs (right before you get to the surface of Candlekeep), and Duchal Palace (of course, my objective was to keep both Belt and Liia Jannath alive, as opposed to just one).

Heheh- Go past those Skeleton warriors by giving my Elven Ranger th shield of Falling Stars (+5 vs. missiles) and Boots of Avoidance (+5 vs missiles) and walked him forward. The skeletons fired at him while my 4 guys hung back and Imoen edged forwards behind him. She disarmed the traps, and my main char (Elrond) moved forward. my party was carrying magic arrows to the eyeballs and Elrond drew fire while they wasted the skeletons.

IMHO the werewolf fight was easy, though my main guy could take down the last level of them alone - with a Potion of heroism. my party was about L7 on average. Iron Throne top level was really tough- but I got through after many many tries.
Demonknight was done with Imoen stealthing and talking to him, then unveiling the M of Opposition. The Demonknight killed his double thencame for my guys who polished him off in short order - so he was weakened from his double. Couldn't polish off the rest of the mirror fiends though. Haven't killed Sarevok or Aec'Letec yet, despite having got Soultaker.

I'd say the fight with the Merry Fools - or possibly Balduran's Ship - with all the wolfweres. Big fights are always worth it though - gold, useful trinkets and experience points aplenty
