Yep, it's the same for the new demon lords added to the game by IA. When you kill the demon lord in the first stage of JD plot and collect a vial of his blood. You read this in the item's description:



Which indicates that you have only destroyed his corporeal body in prime material plane and have sent him back to abyss.

1- Lavok is not immune to normal weapons.

Ah, as I am filling him with arrows and I remember right in the battle message windows it says that a spell has failed but there was no damage associated with it. At least not during the beginning and middle of the battle.

When I get there with my new party I will take better notes and let you know. Those messages fly by so fast it is easy to miss something.

"I hope you are a better player than I am Romulas."

I seriously doubt that, I did forget however that it is difficult to survive starting out with 3 or 6 at the level the games puts you at. I installed the enhanced encounter part of the thief stronghold and can easily get waxed at night. It seems that starting at level 10 versus level 8 really helps ones surviveability, even with 3 characters.

I was just thinking that since I generally only survive the big IA battles with 2 or 3 left I might as well start out with 3 and see how that goes.

What in the...

I am getting owned too, HALP MEH! The first fight with demon + 2 lords is easy enough fully buffed, fully summoned, but second part you cant buff or summon. Does anybody know which enemies spawn what? or if those marileth+lord+elemental golem spawns are limited? My best shot so far was to kill the first lord fast, then triple remove magic to down a noble marileth hoping and praying those had similar functionality to master assassins and coordinators. But after they died, the spawns kept on coming. Within 15 more rounds or so, the screen was filled with enemies. So I guess the prince himself is the focal spawn point, like a grandfather assassin on crack.

I then tried to go 5-alpha on the prince, and he is so hard to hit (with massive regen too I think), and that turned out to be epic fail as well. Got him to barely injured and screen was full of spawns. I sit one greater resto guy somewhere off in the distance summoning fodder and sending them in one by one to die, but about 20 rounds into the fight, demon prince casts "destroy mortals" or something like that and disrupted a greater resto, instantly killing half my team. GG.

I don't want to cheese it, ie. run to that pier in the back and spam wishes and greater restos, with infinite hardiness on frontliners. Even if I did cheese, I suspect I would still lose. Pfmw goes a long way here, but the enemies just retarget something that I cant pfmw, even from half a screen away. Do I need to be level 40 across the board? There's no way I can do that. I have alot of multiclasses.

Meh, nvm got it. This fight is all about the pfmw and absolute immunity scrolls you've accumulated throughout the game. GG.
