Did you go downstairs from the room where you fought the shadow lich? You should have gotten to a temple and found half an artifact rod (after some pretty tought battles against some eye tyrants). Then you should go to the bottom rightmost corner of the "inside-stomach map" as you call it

and you'll find the other part of the rod there. You can then use it to defeat the Unseeing Eye. The battle will be VERY VERY difficult if you don't have this.

If you're having trouble beating the normal beholders, then maybe you need to try this again after you advance a few levels. There's an exit to the surface in the bottom middle of that "inside-stomach map".

First of all, welcome to the board

Uhm, you killed the Lich (for the golden arms en legs)and you find the Beholder difficult??????? Beholders have a weakness for good fighters

. Try minsc his rage, protects you from some charm spells. Lots of physical damage you need to kill those, but you have to do it quick. Also an item that reflects spells (or the spell : spellturning). The big cheese (the eye itself) is easily beaten when you use the rod on it, if it doesnt get down still, get minsc to work it

Hope this helps.

No one is rubbish. Good tactics come with XP and hours of no sleep

fyi, the unseen eye quest is easily one of the tougher quests in the game (barring that stupid shield). go do trademeet and umar hills first.

ah.. those blind preists took a beating from my 11th level cleric. anyway, i had Jan cast invisibility on me. Then i cast Blade Barrier. walked right into the middle of the blind preists in the boholder lair area. didn't attack, just let the blade barrier deal out 30+ points of damage to each of them at a time.

this technique is highly specialized to a cleric though.

If beholders are gettin yez down, then simply dl the patch for the merchantd (or call it in via cluaconsole) then those 9 eyed nasties are gonna wish they had safety goggles on! Or, just use chaotic Commands, and resist fear.
