just killed Chahopek... thats the toughest enemy yet, and the only time i had to use semi-cheese... heres how

had my druid memorize all call lightning and static charge (5 CL and 4 SC in total)... have wizrd memorize outiluke's resilient sphere

rest... then have the druid cast all call lightnings and static charges BEFORE summoning the guardian.... summon the guardian, then have the guy who summoned it stand at the top of the stairs and cast outilukes resilient sphere on him... he will block Chahopek from advancing.... have the druid stand around... since call lightning and static charge repeat themselves every 10 rounds at abbout this time they will start hitting chahopek again.... you can help with some other spells... thats basically it

and SAVE AFTER YOU KILL HIM, in case the portal closes and you have to fight him again

I think it auto saves when he's dead and the portal is going down

Yep, the game does indeed make a save for you after the dragon is dead. Of course, it doesn't hurt to have one of your own as a backup, just in case

P.S. The Otiluke's Sphere maneuver is one of the standard tactics used in this fight, which is one of the two toughest in the game.

outilukes resilient sphere !!!!

Good Tactic, certanially beats having Chahopek chase one of your guys around in a circle.

The rest sounds pretty much like I beat him, except I also used lower resistance and magic missles.

btw, noticed 2 things:
1)magic resistance doesnt seem to work against call lightning and static charge
2)Paladin's aura of courage doesnt seem to work against dragons fear

are these bugs or is this how its supposed to be?

The resilient sphere exploit was fixed in the patch.

Strange. My paladins never had a problem with dragon fear. None were ever affected by it. Keep in mind, though, that I played the original release and never patched it.

I do have the patch...

the exploit that was fixed is that enemies no longer attck npcs inside the reilient sphere... the dragon never attcked the guy inside but because of his big size he couldnt pass...
