Please comment. I've managed to kill it twice. Usually kills most of my party. Last time I did it I had: Ninja, w/ light sword, pandoras wand Lord, w/ excaliber Samurai w/ murasma blade and wakazashi+1 2 monks w/ Zatochi Bo's 1 Monk w/ elven bow Basically, I cast Enchanted blade, armorplate and magic screen before I go in. When inside, I cast superman on everyone, an armormelt, firestorm, poison gas and create life (create life will actuaaly give a monster that can hurt it, unlike conjuration). Then I start to hack. Sometimes I'll hide a player and they won't be affected by the dazzling lights. This way, I can cast some spells (i.e. stone to flesh, sane mind). I'd also say my characters were about level 30. This really takes patience. Jeff
