Exclamation Hrothgar's Glen!

Bloody Hell! I've just got the Holy Avenger from the Glen! I don't know if my tactics stink but I lost 4 of my 6 party menbers and that was on very easy!!!!Luckily Iselore is still hanging around or I'd be doing the rest of the game with a Paladin and a Fighter!

Do you have sorcerer? If your party is level 15 or higher that battle should be easy..

Smile Lost Followers

I'm now at level 4 of the Dragon's Eye. I wanted to get the Holy Avenger for my Paladin that's why I went back and fought the Lost Followers.

My sorceress is level 15 but she was quickly killed by the archer and I didn't have a protection from missles spell! My spellcaster always seem to be slower than the AI spellcasters which is often to my disadvantage particularly in this battle! Like I say I think my tactics need some improving!!

Try using illusion spells to protect yourself, then! Like Mirror Image or stuff. Or cast blindness or stunning spells on the archers first to disable them. I'm sure you've got loads of useful spells at lvl 15

If your cleric is at level 15 battle would be easier..

Delayed fireball to near every hostile member sapwn point.. And giant vermins.. then cleric will just casting heal spells.. for me things went realy well using this method..

My tactic worked quite well.

My characters are between 13 and 15 but what I actually did was summoned loads of monsters (before clicking on the grave) then positioned them near the spellcasters. I split my party so that 3 were on each of them. I thought it was best to take out these first because the female one (forget her name now) continuously summons apocalyptic boneguards which actually makes the battle harder.

Once both spellcasters were dealt with I concentrated using missle spells with my wizard (who I kept far back from the fighting) on the fighters.

Seeing as I still had a couple of summoned monsters left I had one of them concentrate on the archer, then went in for the kill on the fighters with the rest of my party.
