I keep dying at the final part of killing Kahn the Warrior, and it’s driving me crazy. I went and watched a youtube walkthrough, and saw that person’s solution was to kill the first floating eye with the 3rd level fire spell, which I missed. Do I need to try and go back to the Arcanium Mine and look for it, or is there any other way not to get trapped between the two eyes and Kahn and obliterated? 😕

Check out [gamefaqs.com](http://gamefaqs.com) - I don’t recall there being any specific requirements, although it’s not an easy fight.

I don’t remember a problem either other then the tedium. Just loaded up on greens and found ledges they could jump from when he passed by various places. Greens for the eyes as well. Wish I could be more help but the three or four times I’ve beaten him I don’t remember anything specific.

I finally did it. _whew_ Got distracted for a while by ‘Oblivion’, and when I went back to it, I managed to use the flamethrower spell to get rid of one of the eye monsters, giving me and my minions enough room and time. I hadn’t thought that would work, because when I experimented on the eyes in the outer courtyard, it only sets them on fire and takes forever to bring them down, but on the final Kahn level, it seems to go down sooner, and also changes course, which solved the immediate problem of getting stuck between them. The wizard was a snap, though. Evil found a way. _G_

Thanks!
