Having problems with the magma chamber (spoiler requested)
I'm stuck on the magma chamber day 3. (the trial) What do I do? when I advance to the next day the game ends before I can get to the sorceress. what am I missing?

Hello
<----------------
You say it is after the trial. That means you already killed King Lothar. I did it this way. Although you can't rest when you return to the day before you are rested and all spells are memorized. Just when you get to the day before the trial cast haste on ONE party member and send him to the LEFT (shorter way to the boat) while hasting the rest. I know there is a boulder trap, however you can still pass (problem is that fiends are casting spells that may slow down your character when passing critical area, so wait approx. 2 seconds and run RUN RUN!). It is not required to have all party members assembled to get into boat.
That should be fast enough to get to the sorcerres. I got to her before she summoned any creatures. Poor sorcerres had only Mirror image on herself
Usefull spells: Migic Missile (destroy mirror images)
Mordekainen's sword
P.S. If you manage to get to her and distrupt Aegis spell it's very easy prey.
Nice gaming

Warning: Cheese tactics ahead!
There is a sly, cheesy way to avoid the boulder trap. Everyone loves cheese!
Have your speedy party member (boots of speed negate the need for haste) run towards the boat. Just when he comes into veiw, but still before the boulder trap, pause the game, unload a bunch of heavy stuff from a bag of holding into the character's inventory so (s)he cannot move. Then click the boat guy to talk to him. Since you cannot move, you will initiate dialog from your current position. As soon as the boat arrives, pause and load up the bag of holding and kill what's-her-nuts ASAP.
You can use this trick to initiate dialogs from a distance elsewhere, but sometimes it alows you to talk to people in the wrong order, so be careful.
