Yeah, it's an awful area on HoF. Quadruple the normal number of wailing virgins is a recipe for disaster. I used a lot of Death Fog and Spike Growth/Stones.
TotL isn't that bad with the exception of a few areas/fights. I despise Crypt Things, and Spectral Guards are really tough. There's a couple of nasty jackalwere fights, at least two challenging harpy fights, and the final fight can be difficult too. Enjoy.
