    How do you win this last battle in Dragon's Eye? No matter how hard I tried or what tactics I used, I could never ever EVER stop the socreress from casting the Temporal Stasis spell.

    The main tactic I used was to haste & make invisible my monk and send her racing to the ferryman, never engaging in any combat. My party (also hasted) would follow and use spells and missile weapons to kill the monsters summoned onto the isle. Ususally, they would be dead by the time the monk reached the ferryman, and we'd all get put onto the Isle. Unfortunately, all of her defensive spells would be up, and I couldn't touch her with spell or blade, and the game would end.

    Help!

    There are several posts covering this throughout the board, but all I did was haste my party and run around counterclockwise to the ferryman. If you keep your characters together the rocks will only hit 1 or 2 in the back as they run past. I got to the embassy before the witch (with a b) got her spells up or had summoned too many monsters. Then I just pounded her with ranged weapons while 1 or 2 meleed her. She went down quick with no fuse. If you get there quickly enough she is cake...

    Also good spells to hit her with include: Insect Plague, Distenigrate, most AoE spells or other spells that last for several rounds and disrupt spell casting. Miscast and Dispel magic may be helpful---or not. Just get there quick while she is still buffing and you should be able to pound her with no problems.

    Yes, speed, and ranged weapons and missiles to disrupt her magic.
    BTW, only ONE character needs to get to the ferryman (the fastest). Leave all the others at the entrance. They will also take the boat automatically.
