Water Temple help please

I am trying to kill the High Priest of the water temple but no matter how I buff ahead of time or use haste I get surrounded by six juggernauts and slaughtered before I have a chance to do anything. How do I go about dealing with these stupid lobster creatures? Thanks.

 

Like most of the tougher fights, where you situate your party and where you place area effect spells is the key. Put your party back in the hallway that is near the entrance to the room to avoid getting surrounded. If you have a druid (and why wouldn't you? they're awesome in TOEE) have him cast Spike Growth, Entangle and have a mage cast Web, Grease and anything else you can think of. There's a gas spell that prevents spell casting if you're caught in it. Bombard the heck out of the priests and their hobgoblin guards from a safe distance with fireballs. If you've got archers with enchanted bows they can pelt enemies from a safe distance who are stuck in the muck of area spells. The lobster things will eventually get to you but they should be somewhat hurt by then and all the other enemies should be dead, making the fight easier.

 

Thank you Sir Fink for your reply. Unfortunately I don't have any of what you suggested except for archers. I will journey back to town and see what I can come up with in the way of enchanted weapons. I appreciate your advice.

Also, I was wandering how to get enchanted weapons. I have some master weapons but I don't know how to add stuff to them. Thanks again.
