Tolgerias in Planar Sphere

[frostgiantsson]

I'm trying to face Tolgerias and his other wizards in the Planar Sphere and they are kicking my ass!! I'm fully spelled up (all protections on, haste, monsters summoned, etc.). Yet, they inflict incredible damage and can barely be touched by me. Anyone have any ideas? I only have one breach scroll, but I assume I'll have to use that. Anything else?

Thanks.

Well try some cloudkill and start to use time to your advance! When they cast immunities and such, step out of the room summon monsters and use cloudkills and such.. breach are good.

Take your time and plan your fight, don´t bunch up so they can take all your characters in one area spell..

The rule with wizards:
Quick easy kill:
Do not even bother with damage spells!
Use breach non-stop to get rid of defences.
Use truesight if they cast illusions.
Whack them.
As soon as you are not making any damage.....too late...you should have casted breach! Cast more than one as spell shield may cancel it.
Divide your forces and keep at range! Those sun fire spells can hurt.
Use fire elmentals.
USE BREACH A LOT!

Or act cheesy, and just fire some fireballs in the room you " haven't explored yet..."!!

In the foul darkness one figure will emerge to save the world from evil and despair.... Light flashes as his sword comes down, and thunder rolls through the sky when he points his sword up to heaven to signal his victory....People whisper his name as he walks by, evil tries to hide as they sense his presence nearby.... His name? Link......

Oracle may help, as well as peirce magic. Also summon some fire elementals and maybe a woodland being.... then theres also time stop. spell trigers might help. try it and let me know what worked for you.

THERE CAN BE ONLY ONE!!!!!!!!!!!

also, forgot to mention Summon Insects or Insect Swarm or whatever it is. good stuff.

That's cheesy: not editing your post, but creating a new one!!! If you really can't beat Tolgerias (which is possible) act cheesy, otherwise BG2 will become annoying, and if that happens, the world is doomed......

Jaheiras farsight spell can help, it'll allow you to target area effect spells right under they're feet, and ususally you can get 2 off b4 they bring up spell protections. Let summoned monsters take the heat, then whack 'em good and hard.

Insect Swarm rocks against spell users. Breach and Pierce Magic (or alot of Secret Words) are essential. Miscast Magic is also nice. In my battle, I hit Tolgerias with a Spell Trigger (Breach, Pierce Magic, Pierce Magic) and followed it up with a Spell Sequencer (3 Fireballs), while Imoen and Nalia both hit him with spell sequencers (3 Magic Missiles each). By the time Minsc got to him there wasn't much left .
