Somehow.Īlright, alright, we'll try to help you. Remember, there are expert players who can win this battle even when playing solo! Therefore it always ought to be feasible with any half-decent full party. Note that even if you can't rest, you can still save, so there's always Power Word: Reload if all else fails. Also, you need a Mage with WIS 18 to be sure of getting any good options at all (because it also offers disastrous options), so you'll probably need some Potions of Wisdom in one of your potion-cases. However, the options you're offered when you cast Wish are random, you only get the "make us rested" option sometimes. One tip which is often worthwhile: the 9th-level spell Wish has an option to rest the whole party (and re-memorise all spells), which can be a life-saver if you're struggling. If you have a strong party (balanced, and near to the XP cap), if you have full spellbooks for your Mages and the right spells prepared, if you have optimal equipment and a good stock of potions etc., then it's actually not as difficult as it sounds.

The idea is that you come into the final scene with enough of the right spells and equipment that you can actually get through four fights with Melissan (and three intervening fights with guardians) in one go. I don't guarantee this, but it worked for me at least once. Kill a batch of guardians on one of the side-plates, but don't press the button to cut of the flow of Bhaal essence, and you might find that rest works. Nevertheless, I've sometime found that it's possible to rest after all. After all, this is the grand finale, it's meant to be tough!
