    [​IMG] Before I get flamed for not searching, I did search, and am having a different problem.

    I killed Demogorgon in only two tries with a party of six, but am having problems with a solo Sorcerer.

    The problem is that he seems to somehow be unaffected (sometimes) by my Lower Resistance spells. I have summoned a planetar, then cast: Alacrity, Spellstrike, Lower Res. x4, and Breach in that order. After that, he still seems to resist almost every spell I throw at him. What is going on here?

    Demogorgon is immune to the specific mage spell Lower Resistance. This doesn't mean you can't lower it's magic resistance just that you can't use Lower Resistance to do it.

    So... use Pierce Shield instead.

    EDIT: Some more info for battling Demogorgon...

    1. Has 90% magic resistance so you will need to cast Pierce Shield at least twice.

    2. Has high resistance to elemental damage (except for acid) so don't bother with Fireball or Lightning Bolt. You need physical damage spells like Skull Trap or Abi Dalzim's.

    3. Is immune to level 2 and lower spells.

    4. Is immune to instant death spells like Finger of Death or Disintegrate.

    [​IMG] has anyone actually defeated him solo with a mage/sorcerer?

    [​IMG] Comment on Mirkwood's post:

    2. Skull Trap and Abi-Dalzim's do "magical" not "physical" damage. I know you meant that, only wanted to mention.
