Basically, the fight wasn't hard. Though the ole Firkraag put up a big bigger fight then he used last time, I guess the reason was this Baldurash Firkraag update fix I got heheh..

Anyway, no cheasy tactics here was done. I spoke to him and ended the dialogue with the words that "I will get back to you" or something to that extent. The mage went upstairs and I readied for Firkraag. I mean I did say "I will come after you later", I simply didn't tell when this later was supposed to be, so for me the "later" was after that

Anyway, slapped on Bless and Defensive Harmony. On weaker party members (Yoshi, Aerie) slapped on the Barkskin and Stoneskin (Aerie). Aerie slapped on also the Blur. Main char who is Berserker used Draw Holy Might special ability (he's a char imported from BG1). By that time I had already the Boots of Speed, so main char put them on. Everyone got also Hasted. On main tanks, that was my char and Minsc, I put on the Protection from Fire, also on Aerie and Yoshi. And Resist Fear on Minsc. Moved then everyone around the ole Kraggie, so that they were all scattered and yet able to attack him. Main char and Minsc were in front of Kraggie. Then used Enrage on main char and attacked the old Kraggie with all.

Well, the ole Kraggie went ballistic, guess he thought that "later" is like after a year or so. Yeah right.. He slapped on some buffs, didn't bother to check which ones in detail since it wasn't anything what the Breach couldn't take down. Breach took those down and after that, slapped the Lower Magic Resistance on him (Aerie spell). Jaheira had also the True Sight running, just in case [img]smile.gif[/img] By that time he had slapped the Minsc and my main char away with the Wing Buffet, and nuked Aerie with the fireball - guess he didn't like the Lower Magic Resistance. Due to the Protection from Fire being on, nothing happened to Aerie. By that time the main char and Minsc were back on him and pounded away. During this 'prelude' Jaheira, Yoshi and Mazzy were pelting Kraggie all the time. Jaheira had the Sling of Everard from Joluv, Mazzy had her own bow and Yoshi was using Tansheron's Bow. Aerie had some +4 sling what I got from the Temple Ruins, forgot the name of it.

Anyway, back to the point where tanks got back to him. Kraggie turned on Minsch here and since he had Improved Haste on him, he did damage Minsc nicely. During that time main char was pounding away like crazy and doing some nice damage at the nice speed. I loaded up the Magic Missiles with Aerie to soften Kraggie up and then shot him. Here's the dissapointing part - Kraggie fell to the first missile what hit him. Apparently he was almost dead already and all he needed was one more whack, and darn Aerie nabbed the kill from the main char. Duh!

Levels were between 12-15. Kraggie did put up the better fight then he used to do without the Baldurash fix, but he wasn't that big of a foe since I prepared for the fight (meaning that I have rushed him also and then it's a bit more messy heheh)
