    The third chamber has two monks that teleport in and fight for a short burst, then disappear. When they reappear, they shoot lightning at you, then attack. Then disappear, etc. Your only goal is to kill those two monks. Its the same two each time and they don't heal between bouts.

    The gimmick in the room is that just before they reappear, one of the tiles on the floor will slightly glow and look a bit sunken. If you stand on that tile when the monks shoot lightning, you get about 10pts of lightning resistance.

    However, IMHO, this is not worthwhile since the lightning bolts do more than 10pts of damage generally. Instead, do one of the following:

    A character with Evasion (a monk or a rogue) will normally evade the lightning completely. If you have one of those capable of fighting the monks, use it.

    They also don't fire lightning at a target they can't see. So if you have a strong fighter who can hide (again a monk, rogue, or ranger) you can hide while they are gone and avoid the lightning that way. Then come out of hiding and beat on them. Rinse and repeat.

    You *could* try it with a spellcaster, but you get hit with a dispel magic between each bout, so that's really hard unless you have a lot of invisibility spells memorized.

    Concentrate all your attacks on the same monk each time until he goes down. Then kill the other. Try to avoid wounding both and therefore killing neither.
