I must admit, that I've never had many problems with killing him - but then again, I've never found any of the oppersition in NwN that difficult.

A few general suggestions I can make:

Use potions (or spells) to buff up you and your henchmen.
Haste is a valurable type of potion, unless you have boots of speed. Invisibility is also good to get a short break and rebuff. Barkskin, strenght, endurance and similar speaks for themselves - use them.

Also - don't rush to him, start by pulling all the extra creatures towards you (use missle weapons or similar) while keeping out of sight of Toras. It makes it loads easier to take him down if alone.

Stone of Recall. Use it, rest up/heal up, teleport back and repeat if he gives you problems.

Also - use a differnet henchmen if you find that the one you have in group dosen't perfom as good as he should. Daelan is good.

If you are a figther type, use Knockdown if you have it. You can keep a creature immobilized throughout a complete fight if you time your knockdowns correct. Knockdown each time he gets up.

Use items if you have them with abilities. You might have an item that could turn a fight, so check up on what you have.

If you are a spell caster, summons are good. Experiement with summons to find what suits you best against various types of enemies, in different fights.

Protection against death magic, fear and similar - or just plain magic resistance (Shimmering shash or something) are valurable against spellcasting enemies.

I hope some of these pointers will help you.
Otherwise post again, and we'll see if we can't get you past this NPC

Did it! Finally!

He seemed to be immuned to everything and nothing damaged him. BUT he did take fire ball damage. Unfortunately at my level (4th) I had but 6 fireballs so I sold everything I could and bought a wand of fire. I also bought a planetar which also uses fire balls and together, we got him.

Geez.

Oh and I did use all your suggestions...regarding changing belt, summoning something strong etc. And of course, I've already become a rabid user of Stone of Recall.

Thanks so very much for the quick help.

There will at times be some things that can only be damaged either by spells or by certain special weapons like the different types of arrows or bolts. I suggest holding onto any offensive spells such as fireball or burning hands ... sooner or later you'll need them.
