 These fire-loving creatures have a unique gift in the fact that they harm you just by standing near you. However, if you stay away and use cold spells, they will be no match for your party by the time they get close enough to hurt you. Frost These salamanders are the cold-loving cousins of the regular salamander. They also damage your party by standing near you, but their weakness lies in fire spells and items. Shikata Use the same tactics as you did for a regular salamander, except be much more wary of how close you get to him. The damage inflicted by the regular salamander is multiplied several times. Use your cold spells as quickly as you can and, if you must get in close, be quick about it. Troll Killing a troll is a tough thing to do. Trolls have the ability to regenerate hit points, so focus all your attacks on one troll at a time. Once they fall down, finish them off with acid or fire spells or items. A good idea is to have your priest casts flame blade. Then, he can use it to attack and kill the trolls with greater efficiency. This is especially good on the cold and snow trolls, as they are very vulnerable to fire. Umber Hulk This is the king of masticators. Be careful, though. Not only can these monsters inflict some big damage, they can confuse or stun your party members. Isolate and destroy is the best policy. White Wyrm The minions of Frostbite are difficult to kill because they have an extreme cold resistance and a resistance to most types of weapons. Use crushing weapons such as maces and hammers to deal with them and cast non-cold attack magic. Yuan-Ti Snake meat... tastes like chicken! Any type of weaponry and spell works well on them. Pick your favorite and have at it. Histachi When you attack these yuan-ti creations, have some mummy's tea handy, as they can disease you. As far as the combat goes, use +1 magic weapons, or you'll do no damage. Elite A regular yuan-ti with a greater battery of weapons would be a good way to describe them. They are also more powerful. They lack disease-imbibing properties. Priest Yuan-ti priests aren't so dangerous in melee combat, since they are unarmed and only cast spells. If you can isolate them and keep attacking so that their castings are disrupted, you're in good shape. Yxunomei One of the toughest opponents that you will face is Yxunomei. Casting attack spells at her is just about useless. Only once in a great while will one get through and affect her. Even when they do, they won't harm her much. Bless your party before getting to the battle and start taking strength potions. Get your fighters in close and keep your healers and weak ones away. Bust out all the stops on this enemy. You need a +2 or better weapon to harm her.
