Hey all,

I recently DLed the IA mod looking for a real challenge, and it's good fun, but I've started doing Watcher's Keep, and had this Fanatic Spirit pop up and steal the Bell needed to complete the ritual. So, I figure fine, I'll just kill it and retrieve the Bell. The problem is, I CAN'T. I'm not sure whether it's a tactical error on my part, or a bug, but I've got characters all in Epic Level, with Level 9 Mage spells and Maxed out Cleric spells throwing everything they've got at this thing - magical weapons, spells. I can't even scratch it.

Am I doing something wrong, or is this a bug?

Regards,

Aslyn

Well, that's the thing - it's 100% magic resistant (such that I can cast a Level 9 on it and not even phase it), and the one +4 weapon I DO have won't hit either (it's that +4 Crossbow that shoots fire bolts), which leads me to consider the simple possibility that other +4s won't do the job either. I can't remove any magical defenses, even with Spell Strike, I couldn't smack it with a Comet or Dragon's Breath, and every spell I've cast to remove magical protections fails. My fighters can't hit it, so I'm wondering how you can even cause damage to it. Makes no sense.

Oh, and I did cast Lower Resistance on it several times to see if the tried and trusty MM would work - it didn't have any effect, despite a successful casting.

No, +4 weapons are effective, it's just the Fanatic Spirit is immune to missile damage. There's nothing wrong, the thing's just very very hard to kill. When you hit it with the crossbow, the dialogue box should say 'Fanatic Spirit was immune to any damage'. That's different from 'Weapon Ineffective'.
