HMMM thats disconcerting, sort of proves that even if many builds will work some will only work under certain conditions. Okay try easy difficulty for this fight and switch back afterwards, yes I hate that answer but it will improve the players chances to hit and vitality and lower the vitality and chances to hit of the enemy. I play on hard but I started on easy and died plenty of times...man I hate Lava!
Your stats seem low for 14th level, but you have no lonewolves and 4 members so they will be weaker because you have to divide gear 4 ways instead of three ways or two ways.
Fighter- well I never waste any points on spells for a fighter ( give em scrolls instead ) and 150-250 damage seems to be less damage than my Knight at that level does with a hand crafted 2 handed sword- leadership bonus and max weapon skill, 8 AP is definatley low though, usually by 14th level I have like 15+AP,.... and its not that battering ram knocks them down, its that it hits so many and places you in proximity to Jareth who I think can be knocked down all for the points you would use to swing once roughly. He does have opportunist? He has Flurry? He has Whirlwind and Dust Devil right? You say you sacrificed con for speed...really seems like both con and speed are low, my build order for fighters is STR, SPD, CON, PER, no points into Intel or Dex at all ever and PER only after STR and SPD are good. Your building a fighter so anything that doesnt improve his combat performance is superflous and a waste, honestly lots of fighters have swords smarter than they are, LOL. I wasnt recomending battering ram because it knocks them down thats the least of its uses it combines a move to targets with a strike at targets.
Witch- with a little of everything seems OK to me thats how I build my mage, all schools. Again 8 AP seems low though. Are you casting Haste and Oath of Desecration on your tank ASAP?
Wolgraff...okay did you give him a bow and bow skills? cause Wolgraff comes stock as a scoundrel but unless he sneaks and backstabs everything being an archer is more useful, some players swear by backstabbing and sneaking I dont since I dont play scoundrels, yes I use some of their skills
You are buying the level up stat books in hall of secrets at the homestead?
Maybe you made Bairdotr too good?
So what is your first round of battle like? Who wins initiative? What are your members first actions? How close is the party? What is their Marching order?
Honestly in 8 playthroughs it has never been even remotely hard, I have spent more time on this post than on that encounter.
