I asked this questiona few weeks ago, and was advised that the Ritual
Minions needed to be killed to make Desther vulnerable. That I should
stand outside the room, pick off the minions and let the undead come
after me. By the time those were eliminated, Desther's spell
protections would be lapsed and it would be an easier battle.
I kept getting killed (my character was an 8th Lvl Ranger, dual
weilding Short Swords +1, Leather Armor +1), since as soon as I killed
a Minion Desther and a Summoned Skeleton Warrior would charge out
ahead of the Undead and whup on me. And this was with the game set on
Easy.
I eventually Summoned my Companion Brown Bear, used Bull's Strength,
Clarity, and Speed potions, then sped through the room ignoring
everything until I had killed off all the Minions. By then my
Henchman and Companion had eliminated nearly everyone else. I just
had two Skeleton Mages, the Summoned Skeleton Warrior and Desther
himself to deal with, and Desther was busy killing my Henchman.
Even with all this, I had to reload and try, try again about 2 dozen
times.

Post by MooPost by MooUmm I'm kinduh new to the game but have managed to get as far as having to
vs. Desther in chapter 1 NWN. But, none of my weapons have any effect on
him
Post by Mooat all. I have managed to make him surrender with my sling-shot type thing
but only after respauning a few times, costing about a thousand exp!
Why cant any of my swords or arrows get to him? I'm a level 8 or so
Ranger,
Post by Moohalf elf. I don't want to have to waste so much exp on such a battle.
Can anyone help me?
Did you kill his minions in the great hall? You have to kill them all before
you can hurt Desther. But be careful!

I to had the noneffective weapon message but since was playing a druid
with Red Daelan as henchman I took out all the minions first and
animal familar of a black panther helped!
Just starting chapter 2 of OC
