I'm trying to wrap up the Grave Robbers quest and, so, I am looking for Arthur Gremory. However, whenever I enter the imp cave to free him, there are these fiery walls interspersed down the passage that, if I pass through, goblins end up hitting me for 1300 points of damage.

What am I doing wrong?

Got it - that was pretty ridiculous...

That may have been a bug. See Where's the trick to Ba'al?

It happened to be these totem imps (forget their proper names) that I basically had to target and kill super quick, lest they lob a fireball at me for 1300+ damage. The fireball would kill me even if it passed nearby - very frustrating.

its a bugged happens to random mobs for instance for me one was the nercomancer in the flying forts would pretty much hit me once with a pioson arrow /spell thing take me down to 50 hp and the tick of poison would then kill me .I also had the same thing happen to me with the dragon terror patrol they would hit me instantly for 1900 damage , a few other mobs as well like i said its a random thing it take s alittle to work through it or to go back to a save piont leave area and come back a little later even if u just port to your battle tower and back that sometimes works

For me it's Geshniz and Ba'al. I'm level 34, over 40 magic resist, 960 hitpoints and both of them or their minions kill me instantly. There is zero chance to avoid. Ba'al shots a magic blast to start the fight and it does more than 1000 damage, Geshniz changes me into a beetle and his minion kills me instantly with a firebal with over 1200 damage.

I've killed Stone, Raze, Kali and many other bosses without such problem.

I have bought the game on Steam and it shows version 1.4.9.70 on the botton right side of the menu screen.

All my saves are after the bug had hit me, I don't have any means to load before that and going in and out of the dungeons, doing other things and returning does nothing, they keep hitting me with their over-1000-magic.

Edit: Another minor bug (completely unrelated) is that the music "Rambler for Slavs" that you can order the guy in your throne room to play, stoped working. Whenever I order him to play that music the game just ignores and keeps playing the music that was playing before.

The person in the topic I linked to above used CheatEngine to fix their health until they got past Ba'al.

If you email your save to support@larian.com, with a description of the problem, and possibly a link to this topic, they can fix it for you.

[Not Sure if Bug][Spoilers]Killed Instantly


For the music problem, a couple people had similar issues with D2:ED.

The problem with cheat engines is that Steam sees them as security threats and so it blocks them and maybe even the user's account... So, for the sake of my account, I'm not going to use them. I've sent an e-mail to support@lariat.com with a copy of a save file right before Ba'al, now all I can do is wait for a patch or hotfix of some kind.

Edit: Farhang Namdar fixed my savegame and now the bosses are dealing their normal level of damage (Magic Blasts barely scratches my PC and fireballs do considerable damage, but now I can survive long enough to kill the assailants).

Really good support service, much better than most "big" developers out there, but as I've said in another topic, I hope they give us a permanet fix for this bug, so we can play the game again without that kind of worry.
