No one said it was easy... heck, i just finished the game like 15 mins ago... i had 2 chars wiped out. but then once i changed to slayer. it was smooth sailing.

The key is not to actually look at the Trool, or not let him into your sight. What you have to do is not even get off of the raised platform when you cast Entangle and/or Stinking Cloud. Then fire the fireballs/cloudkills right at the edge of the darkness. Get the pre-emptive strike. Also try the Priest fire spells and Melf's Acid Arrows.

Summon , summon, SUMMON..... summoning spells comes in handy in these situations.

here is a handy little trick i picked up on my third attemp to start a game. dont do the nalia's keep first. it isnt required. you can do lots of other ones first. build up levels.
the torgal problem is the reason i first found ironworks . doing searches for help with that part.

Dont divide your attacks between the trolls. Concrentrate everything on one troll at time then move on to the next otherwise they will keep regenerating and you will triple the difficulty of the battle.

I have never fired wands or spells into the 'fog of war' for this battle.

My tactic is:
1. Cast Haste, Bless, Chant and any stoneskin spells available on my party
2. Edge forward with a character in stealth mode and lure Torgal out by himself
3. Have my best fighter (equipped with health potions) engage him in melee combat while the others use their best missiles/arrows/bolts or acid & fire arrow spells.
This way I don't have many problems and I ALWAYS do this quest straight after coming out of Irenicus' dungeon (at least as soon as I have picked up some NPCs!).

Caleb is right, the most important tactic is to concentrate on 1 enemy at a time as the regeneration rate is astounding.
The other important point is to use the Haste spell - it speeds up your attacks and this is really the only sure way of beating Torgal's regeneration if you engage him in straight combat.

Good luck! It can be done at any level, if one strategy doesn't work, try something different!

I don´t know what all the fuzz is about, i just had Yoshimo lay some traps, summoned some creatures and then lured them into my death trap.
