Why can't I damage Isair and Madae?

    Hi All, I'm at the final battle with 2 lvl 22 illusionists and am having trouble hitting Isair and Madae. 23 DEX, doom bolter+5 bolts, Mordanikens sword and all i get is "immune to my damage" schtick. Got Madae down to hurt with chain lightning and onto 2nd room and i can't hurt them at all dammit. I dominated the Xvim knights and they are not hitting either.
    which makes me wonder whats going on here?

    IIRC, at least one of them is immune to slashing weapons. I think it was Isair but I'm not sure. Use bludgeoning weapons if possible.

    I always take Madae down because Isair casts Improved Invisibility and Detect Invisibility doesn't work if he has Globe of Invulnerability on and that's why it's bloody hard to damage him by spells that won't hurt party members. And Madae isn't immune to slashing weapons, IIRC again.

    Damn, it has been too long since I played IWD2. Maybe someone who recalls better can give some advice. ^^;

    It could be that they're just casting spells that reduce the damage you inflict on them. Try hitting them with a few dispel magics spells (or whatever the spell's called) and see if that does any good.

    thanks I'll give it a try. no dispel memorised so i hope a scroll works. I think the spells should have worn off them though.

    [​IMG] sure tainted the pool ok. Madae casts heal on herself in the second room anyway. Am giving up in disgust now after trying it again with a revised set of spells. 3 times i hit Madae with lower resistance but the duration is screwed up and it only seems to last a couple of rounds.
    Would be interested to hear from anyone who has done this with solo mage or mages only party. The rest of the game has been easy with this party,hardly a scratch most of the time.

    I remember I had my clerics, my mage and my bard casting hell upon them both but that were my fighters that made pieces of them (after two resurrections as well :cry: ..). If I were you I would summon every monster you can. Ah, one IMPORTANT thing, kill INSTANTLY the mage that is continually summoning giants, remorazs and that stuff; that is at the right of the room. Flesh to Stone!!.
