If you have ToB installed your fists should be +4 at around level 25. Or use GWW with a plus 4 weapon. If you have bg2 unpatched you could beat him with, boneblade, cutthroat, sling of everard, flametoungue etc. If you have bg2 pacthed I think your only chance is the slayer.

Thanks Gebhard. But may I know why only the weapons you listed are affective against Kangaxx? Do they have special characteristic?

Bruce, I already tried to use slayer transformation. But I got killed because of the transformation itself before I could kill Kangaxx.

You need a +4 or better weapon against Kangaxx. More precisely... a weapon that hits as if it were +4 or better (which is why Flametongue and the Improved Mace of Disruption can be used).

All those weapons are no good. Because you only have 1 attack per round. Kangaxx can heal faster than you can do damage.

Yeah so why don't you wait until you are level 120. Then you wouldn't have a problem with anything.

well actually I tried to cheat with monk. I got until level 21, and the experience point stagnant after that. I couldn't level up anymore.

You hit the limit. Either install TOB or download cap remover.

Change when he turns demi-lich on you. And use ring of the ram to finish him off before you die yourself.

Damn.
Because I cheat and over confident, I sold that ring to somebody or perhaps gave it to a npc without asking them to return it.

I'm still soloing monk, but this time without cheat.

I met stone golem. Fist is no use against them. How to use monk to fight them? Thanks.

golems are a piece of cake, after a certain level they can't hurt you,
use your special ability "quivering palm" on them
or use the stun blow
the only real thing you can do is hit them, (with a special ability)
there is a soloing monk help in the strategies check it out
it has lots of helpful tips

Some of you said use sling of Evarard +5. Please take note that it's only available to people who bought BGII pre-order version. I wonder why this happened?

Anyone can download and install the Bonus Merchants. GameBanshee offers them, as do a number of other sites.

In the city of cavern, I need the Sekolah Tooth. My charisma/wisdom is not high enough to talk that beholder into opening the chest. So I have to take him down. But the chest is lock. Without spell or thief ability, I can't open the chest and stuck right there. What need to do?

I am really stuck. Imoen is dead. The beholder is dead. I'm a monk. Nobody can help me open that chest. Please help.

Finally, I finish soloing the monk. I also got the Ring of Gaxx, but I need help from Imoen. I'm not really soloing afterall. Some subquests need NPC's help. But once that's completed, I'll ask them to leave and I'll return for them agin if I need thier help.
