I then started with my Cleric (STR 17). He had Protection from Fire, Bulls Strength and Prayer cast on him - but I soon used up his Heal*2 and Cure Criticals. After 10 attempts, I managed to kill just one Golem.
Finally in desparation I cheated!!! I temporarily set the Resistances to 99 for this fight only - (they are now changed back).
Even without taking Fire and Bludgeoning Damage, it still took an incredible number of swipes before I hacked the buggers to pieces.
Just how strong are they ??? Is there a genuine way that a Barbarian/Paladin/Ranger/Cleric/Thief/Wizard party can complete this realistically?

I simply used my thiefling Fighter4/Thief8 the first time around. I got away with about 2 health left, and a firepillar about to finish me up.
Second time around I did it with my barbarian. So it's quite possible to do it with a "regular" party.
