    Velin Dahn isn't supposed to die. In fact, you weren't supposed to be able to reach him in time in the first place. :)

    That guy is supposed to vanish into a dimension door. It must be a bug, do you have mods installed?

    I suggest you take a look at this http://www.intwg.com/

    :lol: Once he gives his evil speach, dhal casts one animate dead and then vanishes along with the tanner. In the normal game he does seem pretty invulnerable for the short period of time he is around. So I generally dont bother targeting him and instead go to work on the thieves and undead.
    If dhal sticks around to do something else, your game may be bugged.

    Vellin Dahn's script tells him to disappear as soon as he finishes talking to you

    I think he has an item ("Minhp1") that makes him unkillable...

    mods can cause unpredictable things to happen

    I tried to kill Elminster in BG1, the game actually froze. I trapped him with my party because i knew where he would show up, then I whacked at him and threw MM's at him. Game froze, I think it's silly, I think you should be able to kill everything.

    The game developers just couldn't be bothered to create combat AI for everyone. If you tried to fight Elminster, you would find a **** load of protections goingup via triggers, a timestop and the whole team wiped out by multiple area affect spells while he teleports away.
    Or suddenly you would find your ass handed to you by a dozen Invisible Stalkers gaurding him.

    Frankly, no sane adventurer would bother. They know that he is Mystra's Chosen and has immense arcane power. Dragons and liches are one thing, buta thousand year old human mage is quite another.
