Well I just completed the game for the first time the other night.
Not sure I can remember the 10 hardest fights, but in no particular order here are a few of my toughies:
1) Nessie. Good god I had to reload about 15 times to get past that monster. Ended up relying entirely on my Liz Fighter with superman and restoration potions galore. The others did what they could to help but they were just slowly blown away by attacks or spells. The party was 13th to 15th level at the time.
2) Deathsting Apuses. At the time I met them (outside Martens Bluff at approx level 10/11) they were a very serious proposition. Even towards the end of the game I always took care whenever I saw them.
3) Rinjin. Again I first met them at a fairly low level (10 ish, on the beach in the swamp) and I got wasted. I thought I'd never beat them. Of course once I actually arrived in Bayjin I was 15+ level and I wiped the floor with them.
4) The Temple. Not tough in terms of multiple deaths etc. Just in terms of how long the fight took. I must have spent about an hour fighting that battle, what with all the elementals being created etc.
There are also a couple on Ascension Peak but since you've not been there yet I don't want to spoil it any further. All I will say is that the fights everyone goes on about there were not the worst for me.
I agree with you about the Arnika and Arnika/Trynton road, I got stuck trying to get past some brigands that just seemed that little too tough for the party until I got into a corner and fought them one by one. And the Nightmares, although thankfully they usually just put their protect spells up and ran away.
