Ok Ive whacked this thing a few times using thiefs HLA and traps in the past. But in the party I have now I have no thieves. Cleric/ranger (me), Minsc , wesley, and Imoen are just getting creamed.

Any tips please ... note no cheese just standard tools of the trade please

Sorry Wellard I don't have any tactics for beating him however you don't need to fight him.
IIRC the XP is about the same if just renew the seals or one of the other non violent solutions.

The hard thing about him is that he keeps summoning so once you kill one summon anotheone appears. If you want to fight him just concentrate on him and nothing else.

I've given up before and renewed the seals but this is my last (yeah :rolleyes) good character walk through. And i'm not called well'ard for nothing

So how do I make chopped liver out of this guy? (without cheese)

HLAs. Think Energy Blades, Dragon's Breath and/or Comet and/or (Improved Alacrity + Energy Blades), Improved Whirlwind Attack... Anything that does a lot of damage in a short time and rain death upon him before he can get that many summonsses off.

Protection from evil, HLAs get your warriors chopping away at him with some good weapons. have your wizards drop dragons breath and comets on him.

Get a Cleric and use plenty of summons yourself.

Well, being a Cleric/Ranger yourself, cast Protection from Evil 10 radius, cast ironskins on yourself and buff up like hell. This should work just fine for your Cleric/Ranger.

Demogorgan has high magic resistance(MR), and he is immuned to spells of level 1-6. Therefore, if you want to lower his MR, you will need to cast Pierce Shield. He will be very vulnerable to Abi-Dalzim's Horrid Wilting after that.

Your melee guys can dish out the damage using Greater Whirlwind. Try using Breach from the Wands of Striking to remove his Stoneskins.

Use summons to occupy his minions.

Sooo he is immune to level1-6 spells. Does that mean he is unafected by level 5 'lower resistance'?

If so that would explain why getting imoen to cast them seemed not to help
