How to kill those brimorak on Gray Garrison?

[Agrael-]

So, im at a point at the second floor where i need to kill a lot of demons and two bloody ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ Brimoraks. But here is the problem, now matter how much i lower the difficulty, it is just insane impossible. I just start eating two fireballs, then i get swarmed by everyone, then the next two breath attacks just kills the rest of the party. And its always the same no matter what i use.
And its not like scrolls of comunal protection of fire are lying around. Worse still, if you didint got any, then you cannot progress in the game, because you have to kill those ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥.
And im not even starting with the stupid locust swarms and all the other encounters where i just didint face it because its impossible.
Like the shadow in Market, the two mimics and the alchemist, and the list goes on. The game goes from maneagable to absolute impossible hell in the next and it just frustates, because not even tunning in the difficulty you can manage. Its even worse than ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ Pathfinder Kingmaker!
And i didint really thought they would *not* learn from the previous game. I want to know what the ♥♥♥♥ are those guys smoking, because ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ this game is unbalanced as ♥♥♥♥.

Cast Resist Energy: Fire on your characters.

or use turn based mode and focus them. if you have Ember you can also sleep one of them

You can also try and slumber the Brims. Yes they have spell resist, but on normal Ember still lands it a reasonable amount of time.

Would that be normal sleep or her special ability?

... It's a Spell Level 2 spell for any spell list that gets it (clerics and wizards, mostly, though Witches do not get it). If you want to use the convenient Communal version, it's spell level 3.

It's an extremely common scroll / potion to find as loot and cheap to buy from shops.

And it's one of the most fundamentally important basic buffs you can cast in this game. If you don't have anyone capable of casting that specific spell in your entire party... then... like... I'm absolutely amazed you've made it that far.

If you don't know which element to cast resistance against, send your thief on ahead sneaking / invisible to scout out what the next encounter is and then decide what element you want to resist based on what you see. You can cast resistance against different elements in sequence if you need multiple resistance types.

Notice that Resist Energy is not the same thing as Protection From Energy, they're different spells and they work different ways (they don't really "stack" so much as they work in a different manner entirely).

Again, i have maybe one scroll of that. Most the characters may cast *one* protection against energy, but i have 6 characters and 2 horses. How am i going to protect all of them? And if i can protect just one, then he will be swarmed. *And* i have no way of getting *out* of the Grey Garrison and go buy scrolls. So now what? I've told you in the first post, i dont have fire protection.

Woljif also has an ability that give 10 resistant to one energy type to one character.
Put that on the tank and the fireballs should be ok to take. Edit: Lure out the fireballs with your tank first before sending in the non protected party members.
I cleaned up all the other stuff first and then took care of the tougher things like fireball thrower and shadow demons last.

You need the Communal Version, it's a level 3 spell. Camelia can cast it, you should be level 5 by now.

At this point I'd recommending just turning all the difficulty sliders down.

Not protection. Resistance.

Protection is a higher level spell.

Communal Resist Energy is a Spell Level 3 spell. Resist Energy is Spell Level 2.

If no one on your team is capable of casting those spells, you've done the equivalent of entering a major dungeon without anyone capable of casting cure wounds.

And if you've turned all the sliders down and you're still dying in two shots from trash brimoraks...

How is that possible? They would literally only be doing like 3 points of damage to you if you had all the sliders down.
