    This part of chapter five absolutly s*c*s! I heard there's some kind of a bug that keeps the yuan-ti in the first day from showing up , wich makes this part esspecialy annoying. Anyway...i managed to "evade" that bug and now i am in the fifth day,when you're supposed to kill Princess Izbelah. You have about 30 seconds to get to the Archon and finish her... ( and here i may add that if you don't have haste you're screwed...)
    I tried 2 prismatic sprays on her , as well as some lances on disruption and a bunch of other powerful spells. At the moment when she cast her spell she was Uninjured!! What's up with that?
    Is she immune to spells or something? I even tryed Mordenkainen's Sword , but nothing.. PLS help.

    She does have very high magic resistance but she takes physical damage as easily as any of the other priestesses did. Have a couple of troops hit her hard with powerful range weapons as soon as you get off the boat to disrupt her spellcasting, and get your hasted fighters to her as quickly as possible to finish the job.

    I had a little trouble killing her also. Took me 3 times before i could get her killed before she cast her spell. I had my fighters and my paladin pounding her head really bad and well i had a bit of luck too (3 critical hits in a row :) ). First 2 times i tried to kill her with magic but it didn't work out well so i just went for plain force. Kill her and be freeeeeeeeee :)

    All you need is one guy to talk to Archon. So leave all your members behind. Get the guy with the haste and run as fast as you can. When you've reach there, to be save, select all your party members using the button on the top left corner(you should know where.) talk to Archon.

    And I've also heard that the lava on the left would be covered by some land but it will fall and push you back. If you're quick enough, you may be pushed forward instead.

    This may save you some time and by this time, she still may be casting her stupid protections and summons.

    Insect Plague is a nice choice. Power Words and Symbols of Stunning could work out. Otiluke's Resilient Sphere can cramp her style. Whacking her upside the head with a great axe usually has salutatory effects. Or demonstrate your druid's Zorro fanboydom with a cast Moonblade spell. It disrupts spellcasting.

    Plenty of options.
