I think it is petty obvious that every one knows which one is the hardest battle on the floor right ontop of the jaill for the improsend one. Im not sure what key it is but it is the one with like 6 people and a beholder and a huntress and a drow preistess. Do you agree that this is the hardest one and if you do then help me out with some stratigies.

What if we don't agree this is the hardest fight? Can we still give you strategies? [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Spoilers maybe (strategy)
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - A good strategy is to use Time Stop, Improved Alacrity, and Dragon's Breath, as none of them are immune to Time Stop (I think). Dragon's Breath ignores MR so it is very effective vs. Drow and such. Planetars, Elemental Princes, and MK's swords are also very useful. Also, try putting 3 ADHWs into a ninth-level contingency or 3 pierce shields (or lower resistances), and setting it to target the nearest enemy on sight. On the fighter side, Smite and the improved Whirlwind are very effective at keeping enemies away/killing them quickly. Another good idea is to take out the spellcasters first, especially the Drow priestess, as her spells (the bug-swarm one) will stop your spellcasters from functioning (even the Planetar). The Beholder isn't much of a problem if you equip a good fighter with the Shield of Balduran (it can't touch you!). Also, referring to the previous reply, you can't enter the Pocket Plane in a battle, so you would have to get ALL your party members away from the fighting before you cast.

They're strong aren't they [img]smile.gif[/img]
No I don't think they're the hardest, but i think they're great school for creating tactics. Here is my way: 1.Stop the time. 2.Imprison the Hive Mother and the "Kai" 3.Kill the remaining four 4.Rest 5.Cast Freedom 6.Kill the Hive Mother and the "Kai" |

spoilers
* * * * * * * * * * * 1. Bring your party into a position at a nice distance from the seal 2. Summon a planetar (or a deva, fallen deva...) 3. I turn the key with only one person near the seal and quickly run back (having boots of speed) 4. Soon the whole bunch of them should be after you 5. I always put the planetar in front of my party (in all my battles it was able to take out like two or three of them). With my shooter I disrupt the drow priestess spellcasting quite efficiently. The rest is quite simple. But try to find your own tactics. It's quite challenging. How about the Beholder?. It seems to me, that every time I try to cast a spell with my mage, the beholder disrupts it. Have you experienced something like that? |

Nerull you sound like you watched an instant replay of my battle with these guys. A lot of the more diificult battles in the game are just frustrating but this one really rocks. I haven't been that excited about beating an enemy since the original System Shock.
