Low level challenge and Iyachtu Xvim

Post by lendial »

Hello, I am doing a playthrough of this wonderful game after nearly forgetting about it for about 5 years.

I am currently doing a low level challenge (my characters are all level 6 except for one who is level 5). I have 1 barb/fight 2 clerics 1 wizard and 2 sorcs. Ive manged to get to the last chapter and I am about to fight Iyachtu Xvim but I can't seem to do any damage before he meteors me to death. I can stall it out to a point where he runs out if spells and is left with only meele attacks but even then i just cant touch him.
I am using wei's ease of use mod as well as widescreen so I have access to quiet a few items normally only available in HoF mode including sunfire talisman and bile of the damned.

My question, is there any way at all for a level 6 average party to beat Xvim without using any console cheats or do i have to bite the bullet and finally level up my characters. I am fine with abusive cheese like Otiluke sphere decoys and improved invisbility+non dectection.

Thanks
