This might seem like a dumb question, but...

The role-playing games (I-X) that started it all and the various spin-offs (including Dark Messiah).

How is it possible to defeat Robert the Wise/Toberti and the Robots in The Lincon without GM protection from magic? I have gotten this far in my no GM magic playthrough and would like to finish it, but when my entire party can be eradicated in a single round it's not very fun. Does the solution just involve running around in circles while shooting arrows over and over again?
Back from the dead? Maybe.

Oh yeah. I totally remembered that it's possible to pick-pocket Robert for the cube while invisible. Guess I should actually put some points into stealing...

Pretty hard and frustrating but doable. For example you can paralyze him with GM mace.
GM body for priest exclusive really ruins game for alternative classes imo.
Still there is ways to defeat him, also never managed myself but I think he can be pickpocketed for the cube(not sure on that one).
Also in real time i think you can avoid his blasts, but its really mess.

It's very easy. There are several ways to get the Cube from Tolberti/Robert Wise.
1. GM Mace (Paladin) can paralyze him.
2. GM Stealing (Thief) + Invisibility spell and you can steal this item.
3. GM Body Magic (Cleric) - you cast protection from magic and Robert/Tolberti cannot eradicate you.
4. Don't have any of them? Use save/load - if he eradicates you - load, if not - save.

Can't you go up to the balconies and shoot him from there? Never tried this but it should be relatively safe.. in theory.
You'd think Darkmoor was a ghost town, but instead there's plenty of life among the dead.

No, I don't think the balconies work. If you have to kill him, you must attack him head on.
