"Can defeat 5 Rebel Specters in Marten's Bluff...help!"
As I said...5 ghostlike creatures that keep on casting silence, blinding, slow, insanity,...

My partymembers are contantly asleep or blinded... And I/we get slain. It's no use casting cure lesser condition upon 1 partymember... That takes to long...

Anyone knows a trick to finally get those bast$*ds...

Thanks...

2. "Up your defenses"
Make sure you have magic screen, soul shield, ... etc. all cast at maximum.

3. "I had a glitch..."
My game glitched somehow and some of the specters appears are friendly (green) on my radar. I would have left them alone, but they turned red again sometime after I killed all the hostile ones. :p

Depends on your party level and classes. If these are import characters from Wiz 7 then may be of too low a level to beat them. If they are original characters created from the outset, you should be more than strong enough too beat these specters. If you've got them through spell, potion scroll or item, try these things- Haste, Superman, Armormelt, Holy Water, Bless, Magic Screen, Soul Shield (my bard pickpocketed the Soul Sax from Saxx!), Armor Plate, Pickmeup Potions, Restoration potions and Body of Stone. Bards, gadgeteers and bishops/priests and mages are built for this. Bards and gadgeteers can duplicate most major spell effects through instruments and gadgetes. They have better armor and higher hit points than mages and can use better weapons (a high level bard w/triple shot crossbow and a gadgeteer w/lvl 7 or better Omnigun are a deadly combo). And if all else fails, make sure that at least 2 of your fighter types can use Ressurection powders w/o fumbling, then just close to melee range and hack them to bits.

I had the same problem while fighting these guys.
The real problem with killing them is that you fight all at the same time. Every time I'd attack them they'd mop me up even with soul shield and magic screen. Eventually I decided to try something. I lured the guys back to the T'Rang sentinal and assasins hoping that they would help me slay them. To my surprise they just ran off, I guess they were a little spooked lol. Anyways when I entered the room I noticed that only one higardi would enter at a time. I still thought I was a goner because all I had up was magic screen. To my surprise it was really easy, only one would enter and all my parties effort killed them all off. I didn't use any potions or items either. It was mostly done with melee which surprised me too. Don't forget if you have a priest or bishop to use turn undead. *important, go in the door with the t'rang and turn right a bit, that will make it so as soon as he enters the room he stops and will be in close combat range. Here's my party

Valkrie -most damage was with spiked pike
Warrior -daemonsbane
Mage -darts
Alchemist -long staff
Priest -Spirit wood staff
Rogue -Daemonsting
Gadgeter -Omnigun <-helps out a lot because I paralyzed and blinded a couple of them

I didn't find them a problem - two members of my party could cast the "BANISH" spell - it destroyed them utterly. If you haven't got that then I guess keep soul shield up and try to get close with some heavy duty fighter types. Good Luck!
and if you have the HASTE spell use that.

Oops - I thought you were talking about the monsters near Marten's tomb in the Sea Caves - but I think the same tactic applies!

Those spirits? Hmm they are realllly easy but then I have a preist and a Bishop so they were like really easy... just get your lords and stuff close and they don't have a chance. Altough that insanity thing is like really tough...
