How to defeat Possessed Dwarf demon?

[E|E]

I managed to stay far away from it and down its armor. Went to turn it into chicken and it immediately possess one of my char. Is there no way to avoid being possessed? It seems like the demon can possess even if its not his turn.

Don't worry about it, take your guys down one at a time to around 20% health, demon will pop out, hit the demon a couple of times, it'll pop into another char, heal previous char, knock the new possessed down to 20% and so on, eventually you'll kill the demon. It can help to drop all your grenades, elemental arrows etc and unlearn all spells except healing/mobility. This limits what the demon can do damage wise to you.

It's a really annoying fight - if you weaken your character to very low health levels you'll get to attack him a few more times before he possesses someone again (iirc. he possesses someone once you do a certain amount of damage to him immediately, or whenever he gets a turn - whichever comes first) and you have to repeat the process. I recommend keeping your armor and magic armor down so you can CC your own characters whenever they get possessed.

If possible, you might be able to just instantly kill the demon in one action with something like arrow storm which would save you a lot of tedium in this fight.

This fight presented a problem in my solo game, but I discovered you can in fact line of sight the demon which stops it possessing you. I simply summoned an incarnate down there ran away and hid behind the wall/door frame to avoid being possessed :D

[NouH]

I hate this fight.

When the demon left my avatar body he had less than 600 HP, and when i used a skill that hit for more than 1k damage, the demon instead of dying he just possessed my avatar again, and this while it was my turn i still had action points and the demon just freakin possessed my avatar in the middle of my FREAKING TURN, worst of all, everytime the demon possessed my Lone wolf avatar he would use 50% of all scrolls bombs and potions.

I had more than 10 Big Healing Potions, the demon used 7 of them, ffs.

If he dies, he dies ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥, how thought it would be a good idea that if you try to hit kill the demon he will possess one of your characters?

Mechanics here are completely stupid. It possesed my character who was 1. sneaking, 2. behind a wall and 3. not even in the fight, while it was not the demons turn AND it was stunned. Are you serious.

On top of that he uses all of my expensive and very rare potions. Terrible.

You ignored all the warning, disabled all the safeties and did it wrong. Consequence is: You suffer. Just kill the dwarf while the pillars are still up: Demon dead, xp get. Your guys will be sad, but you won't.

My party summoned an incarnate and Bone Window in the hole then stood like 50 m away and then signaled them to attack. Party was never aggroed.
Demons cant invade summons at all. Problem solved.

Dwarf is hostile as soon as I enter the room and there are no pillars.

Smart. :D

If you're gonna do it the rpg way.. you just have to accept that your guys will be possessed, drop all your gear prior to the engagement, incl all your spells, just punch each other down and kill the demon eventually.. or murder the dwarf whilst he's chained up.

Actually, usually RPGs offer reputation checks through these possessions.

Yeh but reputation can be repaired.. murder is simple.

Even if you go so far as to sack all your group members, rehire new ones from the merc dealer, buy the spells.. the mercs don't care about rep. And they won't quit your side at the alter of the moon or whatever it is.

Tons of money in Arx.. just loot everything and sell it.

[Alight]

lol, that guy, obvious devil is obvious, i kill him before he even got a chance (although the way to beat him is don't melee him, use spell and stuff, ya should be fine)

[Martin]

Actually had a sort of bug on that mission, in one of my play throughs, he released himself from the pillers.. so I had no choice but to fight him and myself... fight took ages until I realised one of my own guys was possessed lol.
