Larian Studios Forums Beyond Divinity (English) Help/Tips/Tricks citadel?

Ok, i am brand new to this game like i have said ( <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/beyond.gif" alt="" />)
Alright, I am at the part in the citadel i suppose it is...and the statue says: "Die! Sub-creatures!" and 2 Level 5 skelly mages and 2 level 2 skellies come out. I always die and im getting frustrated <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cry.gif" alt="" />

Can anyone help?

You can skip that room in the maze, and come back when you are stronger. There is nothing essential there.

I had my hero archer stand in the north west corner before my DK got close enough to the statue to trigger the skeletons. You can either split your characters up and have each attack one of the mages, or if you can not get a couple good hits in early, have both characters attack the same mage, then the other.

When fighting skeleton mages, it helps if one character uses a ranged attack. With 2 melee characters you tend to do a lot of chasing, while they choose when to stop and attack.

I DIED A BUNCH THERE TO,, WHAT I DID WAS TAKE MY DK CAUSE IS THE WEAKEST CHARACTER OF THE2, AND GO BACK IN THE MAZE WHERE U CHOOSE 1 OF THE 3 DOORS, AND I SHUT HIM IN A ROOM. THEN I USED POISON ARROWS AND A RUN-STOP-SHOOT TACTIC. THIS WAS THE ONLY WAY I COULD KILL THEM WITH SUCH A WEAK CHARACTER. I ALSO USED THIS TACTIC TO KILL THE GARGOYLES IN THIS AREA TO. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/beyond.gif" alt="" />
