Vadek (spoilers), Don't read if you've not met Vadek yet Options

What tactics will allow a level 13 party to kill Vadek? I have no problem chopping up Lady Galvenus, but my only +4 weapon is Melf's Minute Meteors. The space is constricted with a "good" girl in the midst of the area of effect (don't want to hit her) and of course there is no way that I know of to bring down Vadek's spell protections (don't have multiple scrolls of Ruby Ray). My current party consists of kensai 13, fighter 7-mage 13, sorcerer 13, ranger 7-cleric 13, swashbuckler 15, and fighter-illusionist multi - levels are apx.

You're right, thetruth. I managed. I kept Vadek under a fog of acid - Death Fog until I run out and then Cloud Kill. I tried to keep my kensai improved hasted and protected from fire and acid while he beat on Vadek. I used the FoA with a cold and fire head. That's all I could get out of my IA4.0 game converted to IA4.1. I found out late that I needed to replay from a point before the keep area and decided not to do that. So, I didn't have the 3-head version. Anyway, I wanted some weapon that could at least do a point of damage through stoneskin. The bum does have 2 scrolls of Improved Mantle - and used them both leaving none for me! I'm not playing the game in my LCD's native resolution and I first misread that 2 to be 3. Anyway, I'm learning that it takes persistence to make it through these battles! Arrrgh, Sikret wants ME to learn patience.
