Hell is, well, Hell

Hello all-

Endgame time...and I am having one heck of a time with Irenicus and all the demons he is summoning. Seems he manages to make my summons "vaporize."

I have reloaded a dozen or so times and still keep dying- I kill him and the henchmen then turn around to find he is alive is another ball- and then another- and so it goes. By the time I have killed him two or three times (as the slayer) I am out of heals and too low on HP to make another go round with him.

BTW- does it matter if your entire party ends up dead besides the main- I may have to go that route with an invis potion!!

Suggestions for either spells or weaponry greatly appreciated- I have Keldorn, Mazzy, Minsc, Aerie, Imoen and the main is a theif/mage. only have one level seven spell slot available (on Imoen)

Katrina- Wishing she had been able to get Anomen back!!

For some reason big I couldn't hit me, it may be because of the cloak of mirroring i was using (that sould be strange), or the 100+ fire res I had (that would be even stranger).

Guess I had a breeze heer, but you may want to check the stategy option on the site.

Oh, you might try to change in the slayer, that should help some!.

Many threads on this subject, the best thing to do is create monsters before you insert the last tear, and then when Irenicus appears peg to the botom of the screen, bolster your people a bit have Breach peice magic etc prepped and he should appear after a short length of time as the slayer, hope that help

I dont get it???

Irenicus is a total pushover, just cast your timestop spell (found in the elven city) and blast him with everything you got. Breach, dispell magic, spell trust and that kinda a stuff (evaporize his minions with all your offensive spells)....oh it will help to cast protection against evil on your self

IF NOTHING HELPS TURN IN 2 THA SLAYER. You will kick all 5 (8??) monsters monsters asses. Did anyone notice that when you kill irinecus mirror slayer he re-apears somewhere els behind you???

ps: U did remember to bring your 2 protection from magic scrolls ???

Hello again-

Here is what I have been doing. After I put in the four tears (I have a save at this point)I summon five elementals- two of which are lesser- cast haste, protection from evil, chant, bless on the entire party (including the elementals that are close enough). I also cast Tensers Transformation on my main as well as the magic sword that is one level lower right before. I move all my chars away but not as far as has been suggested so I will try that.

I have killed Irenicus THREE times in one load up and then I walk around and there he is again. Breach Magic and Peirce Magic don't seem to disintergrate the ball.By this time I am too low on HP to kill him yet again.

Anyone know how many time he manages to reappear before the final death blow??

Off to try some more!!

Thats really strange cause i had to kill him only 2 times. After putting the tears irinecus apears. He summons some creatures (3 balor demons and 3 pitfiends i think). Then he does some stupid spells (he infact becomes THA BUBBLE BOY) and makes a slayer image of him self. I gave it everything i had and killed everything but if u look closely you will see that when you kill irinecus a light apears and transports him to some other place (as u have wittnessed). In my case after this "first battle" minsce and aerie where stunned. So in stead of searching for irinecus i waited untill they got crontrol overthem selfs. I think that in that time irinecus spells where wasted. So what i did next was attack him with all my six players at ones while ensuring that he doesnot use any spells to teleport his essence some where else. Irinecus is very susceptible to arrow attack (that was my experience after some breach spells)

so try waiting before youre second battle in hell

I just cant understand why irinecus is such a problem. I defeated him, in my first try at difficulty setting max. Kangaxx is a lot thougher

FINALLY-

Moving all the way out of range made ALL the difference in the world. Made such a difference in fact I did that final battle twice since I had movie sound so low I couldn't hear the final movie the first time around(is there going to be a BGIII since the "Child of Bhall is doomed, There is no escape")-LOL

Other than that I think it was just luck of the dice so to speak. I had to heal a couple of times but just before the death blow only Aerie had enough red on her bar to notice (I'm sure the others had some just not a noticeable amount.)

Lots of summoned pets after the initial elementals vaporized made it impossible for him to get a spell of- he kept trying and failing.

Anyone notice in the final movie Irenicus looks an awful lot like Arnold Schwarznegar (sp)-LOL!!

Off to play again- going to be more careful with my spell book this time around so I have a "perfect" char to export into NWNights.
