Leper's Smile - Garkel - how to kill him

[serdicus]

For some reason, this Ranger/Undead at the far north east corner of the underground map in the Leper's Smile does not get any damage when he gets struck. The dialog shows that damage is done to him, but his life bar does not diminish. Is this a bug, or does he has some immunity that is not obvious? Tried dispel magic, blessed weapons spell, weapons + 2, nothing works. Any help would be appreciated

Sounds like a bug. Every time I've run down there across multiple characters I steam rolled him.

Yeah, I encountered this bug. Had to reload a previous save to get around it.

Well... and I also just B-lined for the glowing green box before killing Garkel.

There is an item you can use in that fight. You should be able to see it on your map, its on a crate near the water. It helps.

Also, get used to fights you can't win and just need to survive X turns, or do X damage, or require some method other than fighting to complete.

I'm currently having the same issue. Dealing a metric ----ton of damage each round, but he's at full hp, happily swinging away. I had the same problem with the undead in the wine cellar back in Kenabres. Back then I reloaded and restarted to my hearts content but nothing worked so I couldn't explore it, the enemies just weren't taking damage, or, rather, their health wasn't decreasing.

same thing, you only can kill him with auto, once you put on TURN BASE, then their hp wont decrease.

Yeah I just came across this bug. It's an issue in general with Wights/undead, they randomly just don't take damage if you fight them on turn-based mode. Switch it to real-time and you will be able to damage them.
