    [​IMG] Had a random encounter with Will-o-the-Wisps and no one in my 5th level party could lay a hand on the little lights while they blasted my party to bits. Any advice on how to make effective attacks on these things? Thanks.

    I don't really have any suggestions, but it didn't occur to me they were undead, would of made my battle a lot easier.

    First time I came across them was Temple Level 3, and was level 9, I just remained patient, and just kept hitting them and concentrating firepower on one of them, if there was multiple, eventually you will hit, but I know there must be at least a 50% or higer miss chance, but most weapons seem to be able to hit them. The party I had hitting them was a fighter, monk, cleric, rogue, and wizard shooting into melee.

    As for meeting them in a random encounter, I'm not sure if this is a bug, but I managed to get out of random encounters, if you're on one of those maps inbetween by going straight to the world map. But if they are hitting you elsewhere, then I guess you'll have to fight them, but I personalyl always try and find an inn or safe spot to camp at, cos then I don't have to worry about random encounters.

    They can be easily killed using magic missiles, because their spell resistance does not apply to this spell.
