    I just got done doing that battle today as well. Here's how I did it:

    First, have 5 summoned creatures in the main area before you talk to the lich (at least, I think he's a lich) to get the attention off of you, even if it is for a short time.
    Next, put all your characters in the place where you first enter and wait for the lich to teleport there. As soon as he does, beat the living hell out of him. (All characters should already be hasted, charmed, ect). Try to take him out before he puts on his protections.
    After that, I just went after the rest of them. I took out the beholder first, then went for the mage at the top right.

    Good luck...

    I almost everytime lose one charcter when do this battle... You have to place your weaker charcaters on the stairs, and have shield of balduran equiped with your main fighter. You can beat the enemy one by one, so you don't have to fight them all at one time. Use a lots of summoning spells, so the lich will waste his most dangerous spells on them. By the way, you cann download the walkthrough from this site if you want, and the you won't have surprise like this. And the moderators are not going to like your topic's name, that's for sure...

    Hi,

    What party and level have you reached?
    I entered there in chapter 3 and spent a few hours trying to beat them and eventually gave up and reloaded my pre entry save and carried on with the rest of the game.

    I came back in chapter 6 and used a very cheesy tactic involving several project image spells and two farsights. I basically mined the place with skull traps (close to where each monster spawns) before walking a character out to talk to the lich. I then hit the lich with everything I had while the others monsters stepped on some skulls and died.

    Still don't feel proud of myself but it was my first time through (party is in chapter 8 now). I am going to try some more orthodox tactics with my next party.

    Cheers,

    WittyNewt

    That battle is very hard. I would wait until you get back from underdark to fight it. And you should use a full party for it.

    The rewards are worth the time it takes to beat the battle though.

    You missing a party member. Get someone else to help you. Send in summoned creatures to the room and focus on the lich where you are. Use a limited whish to silence everyone. It'll help! Rid the room of magic!! Chop the ho's up then!!
