Thought I was sneaky

Little problem here: I thought I was sneaky and went to Kangaxx early in the game where I pickpocketed the Ring of Gaxx and wimped out of the fight. Now when I return, I can't kill him, which sucks. Anyone know a way or do I have to settle with one Ring of Gaxx (which I believe was the original idea anyway)?

Whaddya mean you can't kill him? are you just too impotent or is there some other problem?

With the damage he is taking he should be long gone ("desintegrated") but he just won't. (I have killed him in another game so I know he is tough - but not that tough).

Interesting note, Kangaxx regenerates, too. I tried to tackle him at a low level (too low) and the only weapon available was the Staff of Rynn. No one had staff proficiency in my party (stupid, I know). Minsc was hitting him so seldom, that after 6-7 minutes, I finally got Kangaxx to "almost dead". That's when he turned yellow and panicked. By the time I cornered him again, he was back to "injured" again and my magic protection ran out. After several reloads, I finally had to beat him with my cleric, of all characters. I can't believe they would have something this powerful regenerate. It just didn't seem fair. Now he's dead, though, so I'll change my tune.

Try this...
Have a mage memorize several wizard eye spells. After you waste the lich, and the demi-lich spawns, cast the wizard eye in front of the skull. Keep careful track of time because you may need to cast additional wizard eyes. The demi-lich will try to take out the wizard eye with imprisionment spells (to no avail), while your parties thumps him with +5 weapons (Mace of Diruption +2, Holy Avenger and +5 sling etc).
Good Luck!

Something interesting i found out about Kangaxx is that if you have your main char protected from undead with a scroll...he won't die...because he has to say his dialog and he cannot see him/her...so he just stays at near death and never dies.

He's not difficult at all with two key elements.

1- Spell Immunnity: Abjuration, lasts 1 round/level, level 17 would equate to a little over 1 and a half rounds.

2- Sling of Everard +5, no ammo and +5. It's slow, but with anal-man, jaheira, viconia, or aerie laying a long-distance smackdown with it, he's dead.

You should have around 5-6 slots of Spell Immunnity. You could try and get fancy by dumping a fire elemental behind kangaxx, but make sure you don't use your slinger, so this way you can keep up consistent damage.
