Icewind Dale Game Guide
Kaylessa
Keep the weaker members of your party out of her way and have them use missile and ranged attacks. Your fighters can handle her as long as you have a healing spell ready. She's a good fighter, but if you keep at her, she'll die quickly.

Kerish
You don't have to kill Kerish, but in case you get into a scrap with him, here's what to do. He is a frost salamander, so fire works better than anything else. Use fire magic and fire weapons, but don't use anything cold-related. He'll just point and laugh at you (after he's dispatched your party).

Kontik
Send your well-armored fighters in for some close-range combat and keep your other members on their missile weapons and bows. Kontik has lots of high-level mage spells that will keep you on your toes, so be prepared to use healing items.

Maiden Ilmadia
This is one lady that you definitely can't date. One of the six lieutenants in service to Belhifet, she's very mean and intent on killing you. If you attempt any sort of melee combat, be assured that the attackers are going to need some healing.

Malavon
Another lieutenant, this dastardly enemy is particularly clever in his fighting. His idea of a fight is to cast some sort of area-effect spell, then run away by means of teleporting to another room. Yes, he's a wuss, but you'll soon have him relinquish his own pitiful existence if you use your dispel magic or free action spells along with a dose of missile weapons. Also, keep in mind that he wouldn't be dumb enough to teleport into a room where he's cast a spell that would hold him there.

Marketh
The third "M" lieutenant, this human is not so tough if you can get him alone. Try to con all his friends away from him (or kill them before the fight), then bust out the arsenal. Once Marketh is alone, send your fighters in to have their way with him. Keep your weaker characters out of harm's way by having them use ranged weapons and magic.

Pomab
Nope, he's not just a whiny little shopkeeper ninny-boy. You should have killed him when you first met him. Oh well. To lay down the smack in the endgame, don't use magic to attack him. Send in everyone that can't do healing or use missile magic to attack Pomab. He will make mirror images of himself. You know your hitting the right thing when you hit something, and an image disappears. Simply hit the real ninny-boy a few times, and he's dead.

Presio
Here's another mean woman whom you want to dispatch with the utmost speed. She likes area-effect spells, so get your fighters close to her as quickly as possible. Leave your other folks to hit her with magic missiles, arrows, and magic.

Seth
The first time you encounter Seth in front of Marketh's palace, kill him. He's much easier when he isn't with all his other cronies. Use anything in your arsenal to kill him.
