Myrkul's Sending

How do you fight this thing? I don"t seem to be having much luck.

Hmmm i dont use any special tactic there, just hack with your strongest characters (no more than 2 or 3) and throw a bit of magic and arrows from behind. If youre having problems you could rest before fighting to heal your party and memorize spells.

If I remember correctly, it can only be hit with +1 or better weapons.

What I did was put my Ranger on the left side of the steps, and one of my fighters on the right side of the steps. I then placed my mage and cleric near the pools. Then placed my thief in between them. I used my other fighter to pull the Sending to us using his bow. When he was within range, I paused the game and then gave my ranger and warrior the command to attack using their bows, my thief the command to use his bow, my mage to cast her acid arrow and to ensure that my second fighter was going to "tank" the Sending.

I then took pause off and watched the fight. About midway through I paused again to give my cleric the command to Cure Moderate Wounds on the main fighter and also at the time, gave the mage the command to launch a magic missile at the Sending.

In the end, my main tank died but so did the Sending and we marched back to town and got him rezzed. I found this to be the best way to do him after watching my party die 5 times before.

Absolutely correct Lord Teppenwolf. The only problem I see is that the Big 12 is way overrated.

I dispatched the Sending by the usual hack 'n' slash with magical and bow backup. Problem is....I didn't even realize it was a 'special' battle until I clicked into the forum! ::sheepish grin::
