I dunno, I've tried to use the cliff and the archers still just murder me. 3 attacks/round, doesn't reallly matter what your AC is, they are gonna hit you.

I usually have Asterion hide and sniper a few with his sneak attack longbow until they get wise, then he cunning dashes away while shooting behind him until I train them all the way back to just outside Wakeen's rest where I can bottleneck them, problem is sometimes the game just glitches out and they teleport to the cave and kill the Zentium.

If you are getting hit by archers it’s a positioning problem. All you need to do is hang back a bit and the archers won’t be able to get an easy line of sight on you. Crowd control spells like web, grease, and spike growth are highly effective at helping control the battlefield. Then it’s a matter of isolating and focusing down the bigger melee threats as they come to you.

If you know how to use the terrain and have a decently synergized party, that fight can be pretty easy. Not trying to be a dick, sincerely, it just sounds like your tactics some refinement.
