Balor - Spoiler

Post by davfra »

I can`t get anywhere with this character. I`ve even got a simulcrum of Aerie throwing everything at him and nothing seems to work.
I can kill him by getting my character to become the slayer, but then he dies on me - every time. Even when I have the rest of the team standing by to give him medical aid.
Any help would be appreciated.
Cheers

Have your Blade do a Defensive Spin right next to where the Baalor appears (this will keep the Baalor occupied and prevent him from inflicting too much damage on your party). Have your Cleric/Mage, your Jester, your Skald, and your Conjurer cast Lower Resistance, and then have them all cast Magic Missile a couple of times. Gets 'em every time. :)

By the way, if your main character is dying because you're staying in the Slayer form too long, just end the Slayer Change before he dies. (Look on your toolbar where the Slayer Change button was and you'll find the End Slayer Change button in its place.)

Good luck!

Use the trap cheese, by placing a few spike traps near the spot where he appears before the fight.

Works every time.

That`s great. I didn`t realise there was an `end slayer` button! No wonder he kept dying.
Many thanks.
