    Iuz is a demigod. How do you expect to defeat him? A lucky backstab perhaps? The possibility of summoning Iuz was a nasty feature of the original module which they've retained in the game. In the module, there was a chance that when Iuz appeared, so would St. Cuthbert and they'd go off and settle differences away from the eyes of mortals. This evidently hasn't happened for you so I guess you'll have to go back to a savegame.

    The only thing Iuz did in my confrontation with him was engage in melee. If that had happened in a pnp session the players would have made fun of the DM for years to come.
    Demigods do have other options than hacking away in melee! :rolleyes:

    Anyway, it is possible to kill Iuz here but it normally requires some luck with the die rolls. I agree that killing Iuz should have been impossible for the party.
    (Edited:) I think... (End edit) You could also try the spell Dismissal and hope it works, but that isn't killing him.

    I think this confrontation was bugged and may be fixed in the patch.

    I DID kill Iuz with a lev10 party, but only because when Cuthbert showed up, he stood around looking befuddled. To this day in that game he is still standing around looking befuddled.
