What are your character's stats, what class is he/she, what items/spells do you have at your disposal?

Do you have anything that can give you true sight? That would help with the concealment issue. If I remember correctly, the black/death slaads cast spells too so any kind of spell resistance items/spells you have may be useful. The way I'd approach him is to try taking him out with my bow, using the arcane archer spells/skills to do more damage. If this doesn't work that get the weapon with the highest enhancement (ideally +5 or above), drink a bull strength potion, a cats grace potion, potion of clarity, potion of speed, potion of endurance, bless potion and just try to hit him hard and fast. If you have any henchman, give them the same potions (by dragging the potion over their picture) and let them attack too. If you start getting injured a lot do not be afraid to run away, heal yourself and retake a few potions before going back in again (but don't take too long doing this because of the regeneration)
