    [​IMG] OK. I killed the Lich Terikan and sent him on his merry way to Hades. I've gotten the key from the dwarf at the Great Forge to open the doors to the Glacier.
    But how do I kill the two Bronze Sentries? I have tried it and can not deal enough damage to get through the doors. And I just hate leaving something unkilled in my wake.

    Try to lure one out at a time. If you send a character down one side of the hall, and draw one away from the door, it should give you a chance to gang up on them one by one, increasing your chance of pasting them.

    Use Chromatic Orb on them, it will make them easy prey (if they fail safe, that is). Btw you should learn to kill them now, because you will have to deal with a lot of their kind later on.

    Yes they are hard to kill... But keep on trying. I had to reload many times at that point... Even with my high-level 30+ party... :nono: Guess this is one of the hardest challenges in the whole game... :bang:

    I agree this is a toughy. I did "play chicken" with one of them but still got a bad case of whoop butt. If at first you do not succeed - then get help - or get a bigger hammer.
    I'll try Chromatic Orb. Funny thing is I have never used it before. I even tried having my mage use Improved Invisibility and sneak up on one of them. They can still see her even before she casts a Fireball.

    I just used haste and a few summons to draw their attention. But I played solo, so my character was pretty powerful. Maybe it's harder with a party, dunno. But some buffs like mirror image, haste, stone skin if you have it did the trick for me.

    [​IMG] Thanks Shire. Actually after I went online to this great web site I was able to play chicken and lure them into a trap. I softened each one up with some monster summoning and then made plow shares out of them.
