Summon as many creatures as you can, and replace them as soon as you can. You should get rid of his protections as soon as possible. Another thing to keep in mind is after his demons are dead; it is a six on one fight. The odds are in your favor. Good luck!

The reason why it seems so hard is that Irenicus in Slayer mode has an obscenely high regeneration rate( RR). So you need to deal a lot of damage to compensate. Poison/Acid weapons will be useful here, since they slow down his RR. Use Arrows of Biting( you have them right? o_O?), Melf's Acid Arrow, to warm up. After that, throw everything but the kitchen sink at him. Remember, you outnumber him, you will win, eventually.

Cheesy tip

One word. ----> Web

If you possess the Ring of Freedom, or if Keldorn is in your party, then cast multiple Web spells on Irenicus and send in your forever freedom fighters to engage an entangled Slayer. Get the rest to either soften him up with spells or missile weapons. You can try Entangle too, but Web has a higher chance to trap because of the -2 to save bonus.

Actually, web is better from another point of voew to. While Entangled you can still fight, even though you can't move. If you are caught in Web you can't do shit.

Cast Protection from evil (no more demon damage) then take a sword of death, and stab him in the gut and call it macaroni!

the final battle with irenicus is not a difficult battle if you make proper preparations. have all your magic users have pre-cast spell triggers that release three breaches and pierce magics on him. a few of these and all his defenses are down. after that he'll regenerate like a madman so just cast all your insanely damaging magic on him and he'll die without a problem (abi's, fireballs, power words and even magic missiles.) also a good idea for him is spell sequencers that send damaging spells at him. you gotta have some true seeing memorized, as well as prot. from evil and all the major magic-defense spells: spell immunity, spell turning, globe of invulnerability, spell trap, protection from magical energy and shield of the arcon (is that spelled right?) for your cleric.
