bATTLE WITH oRCUS? Options

[ROAHDEA]

fOR A life of mine i cannot win this battle. My party is around 24 level (each member party) and consist of vagrant protagonist, jaheira-sc to cleric ranger, valygar, cernd-auramaster, nalia mage (sc to sp mage conjurer), minsc (sc to berserker)


SPOILER!

Almost in second after his speach , Orcus starts to conjure /or gate (?) /or it is some kind of innate ability?-vampire brides, skeleton grandlords (about ten of them if i counted right), skeleton lords, master vampires (around 6 of them I think, and vampire brides and skeleton lord keep coming and coming constantly).. Entire aeria is thus filled with enemies and my computer cannot handle that (chopiness), nor can I , even if computer did not started to freeze.. How did you manage to even fight with them? i mean entire aera is literally filled with high level enemies ang they keep coming, i cannot reach orcus



PS. what I meant about that" I cannot reach Orcus" is that that he is constatly souranded by his summoned/gated creatures, although I killed a good number of them they just keep comming, I mean I thin in one momentg ther was , I don t know, abot 30-40 high level creatures (granlords, brides, lords, master vampires ), immune to death spell (so i guess they are gated or something like that, something like elemental golems and trheir coin and gem golems

Well since I am ill I have plenty of free time to game around I did not have major difficulties until this battle, exept I found spellhold rather difficult (I was rather high level when I decided to go for Imoen, hm and left her behind) because of those new type of golems


About artifacts

SPOiLERS_(I do not know how to put my answer in hidden mode because of the spolers?

















-

I have found that greater swanmays were very useful, almost always I gate them
-I have eqiped Cernd with improved staff and his cloack

-I have improved silver sword for Minsc
-flail for Valygar
-I have for mine protagonist that new "armour" only for vagrants
-I have found bottle and I have made ring, but did not still have another ingridens to make ring of noble djinni summoning
-I did not go to watchers keep for ingridient neded for improved spider

Well, I do not have those two important items yet, but I am fairly good equiped in "other departments"..

Anyway, I think I can manage that battle after a while, but I lost my nerves

The recommended levels for going to spellhold is mentioned in the readme and players are warned that it will be more difficult if they delay.

You have icons at the top of the text editor. One of them is like a lamp. If you put mouse on it and keep without clicking, you will see the message "Wrap in spoiler tags". Use that option. Your latest post about the items was not much spoilerish though.
