Taran, the cavern with the wyverns is on Level 3 of the Durlag dungeon. You've completed Durlag's Tower when you've defeated the Demonknight, who is in a room beneath Level 4.
CrimsonBlade, I have a hard time jiving up the first thing you said, that Aec'Letec is "easy to kill," with the last thing you said, which was "I could name about 50 ways that don't work and all of your team members are blown to hell, but . . . those 50 ways are easy to find on your own." First of all, although it appears that you have killed Aec when you defeat him, you have really only sent him back to his native plane. Second, from everything I've read, this fight is harder than the one with Sarevok and his buddies at the end of the game, so I don't think you should be characterizing it as "easy." As you touched on, one of the challenging things about it is that you should first kill Tracea Carol and the 6 Cult Guards down there before concentrating attacks on Aec. About your favorite tactics here, is there an actual benefit from using a spell like Grease? Tracea engages you in dialog as soon as you get down there, the Cult Guards aren't supposed to attack you directly, and, though Aec has wings, I never saw him move from the spot he appeared at. I assume you had Free Action on your thief for this, but you didn't say why you had this party member go down to the basement floor alone. Was it for backstabbing attacks? You say to cast a load of protections on one's thief for this, but you neglect to warn players that another challenging thing about this battle is that any party members who get hit by Aec's Death Gaze and don't have it dispelled within 20 seconds will be permanently killed and transformed into Ghouls. Now really, does that sound "easy" for a first-timer?
