Tips & Tricks

Iron elementals are thankfully very slow, and while their magic immunity and broad array of elemental immunities will make things brutal for casters, their physical defenses aren't insurmountable for a good melee fighter. Casters with non-elemental Conjurations or Abjuration should spam those, but taking out the Iron Giant is the more important task. If you don't think you can face it toe-to-toe, it might be best to simply run. High magic resistance will help you avoid getting slowed.
