I took this guy with no problem. I was headed to the book from Paineel when i came up on this fellow. He gave me the old "I'm gona cut you a break" speach, but i didn't feel like cutting him one. He coned DB to me at lvl 39 and having just recieved my new spells i decided to try them out on him. I cast my new pet and gave him only marginal buffs (STR, DEX, STA, and the Poison Attack. I temporarily lost him while cast my pet, but found him again shortly there after. Not knowing about his resists to speed spells, I tried to slow him with Drowsy and imediately sent my pet in to attack. It didn't take as long as I thought it would to kill him and I only had to heal my pet one time in the process. I cast my Ice Speer DD spell twice, and it hit with full effect both times, my pet finished him befor I could cast it a third time, (it is a 30 second recast time). The Fine Steel weapons put a few PP in my account and the XP wasn't bad.
