There is no way to protect Halsin in portal

[Anomalous Alien]

Even using alchemists fire, fire spells and hypnosis doesn't work. Not enjoying. Far too difficult and time consuming. I'm done.

Potions of speed and start nailing the crowds with fireballs. If you got the Blood of Lathander - it is a huge help. This might be a strange one, try pushing enemies into the "Protective Field" - I could have been exhausted, but I remember tossing a shadow creature into the barrier and it just got destroyed.

So, if that works, consider any spells or abilities that push or drag (like those void grenades you get early on, if you still have them) It was a challenging fight, I died the first time. Second time I just kept hitting the groups with AoE.

From what I have been told, like many fights, the game can go on even if you don't win this battle, so if you find it too frustrating, just move on. You might wind up with an experience in the game that other players don't have.

Cast darkness on Portal so they can't target it with crossbows or bows. Firewall scroll or spell is easy-mode but anything slowing down (like summons of any time) the enemies is equally effective.
You have two firewine barrels nearby which you can sprinkle strategically the battlefield with. Not needed but they are there.

Check the enemies - those with low health you have to take out with aoe. Fireballs are working wonder for the medium crowd. Shadowheart has to hold her ground at the portal with spirit guardian up. 2 melee fighters help to smash the archers quickly (those are damaging the portal the most). A mage or warlock will mop up the rest and / or deliver the aoe spells (scrolls or spell slots). Thunderwave gives some breathing room and pushes back enemies from the portal.

If you have saved up the spider egg from the harper stash in act 1, those might help as well.

This is a good encounter to learn the power of turn undead. Spirit guardians if anything gets too close to the portal. Anything that creates difficult terrain (preferrably hunger of hadar as it also blinds those inside and they waste time so you can AoE them). And lastly, position whoever has turn undead so they can hit the most enemies with it. Ignore the % on it, just check the radius. Regardless of %, it should make things much easier.

AoE cold spells/scrolls + keep a fighter near the portal. When enemies get too close or roll a save on ice surfaces, toss a void bulb or shoot a thunder arrow to pull/push enemies back toward the surface. Hit the prone enemies with ranged and take care of anyone who rolled a save with your fighter. A potion of speed or two comes in handy here.

Take a druid and a clearic, place spikes/vegetation/ice on the way to the portal and spam turn undead, while the other 2 mop up the stragglers.

Did it on tactician. Just put a firewall down at a diagonal, melee will walk through it and die. Just have to focus on killing the ranged that appear on the left side, as they'll forgo every other target to hit the portal.

I set up all my characters on the platform and used lots of AoE spells like Glyph and Fireball, mostly from Gale and Shadowheart. Wasn't too difficult. Maybe try bring some good scrolls too? Or just lower the difficulty for that fight.

Anyone above the mental age of a teenager who doesn't resort to gloating about how easy it was?

Maybe don't be sarcastic and rude and we can help you? I had no trouble with this fight on Balanced and I'm assuming that you're not playing on tactician.

What's your party composition like? I did it with a rogue main, Gale, Shadowheart and Lae'zel and while it required careful use of skills, it wasn't that hard. Just throw down some crowd control like wall of fire. Let Shadowheart use turn undead and spirit guardians with radiant damage and you should be able to melt the enemies. If Shadowheart has movement left at the end of her turn, it's often a good idea to move her towards enemies that haven't been affected by her spirit guardians yet, provided you're not triggering reaction attacks from your enemies.

LOL, I think you're just bad, and should feel bad. It was surprisingly easy even after accidentally hitting 'end turn' instead of activating Turn Undead a couple times.

None of that works.............................I tried.

It's ridiculously overdone in terms of difficulty.
