If he wasn't flame based I'd say he made the perfect hole for a fireball. Maybe we have a grenade like attack that creates splash damage?

Maybe necrotic skull bomb?
 
Here's what I have so far for an initial battle plan. @Deliste, if N'Gath survives the first salvo, Viserys is going with your Stun Ray + Polar Midnight maneuver. I hope the first salvo succeeds, though, specifically Teana's Feeblemind reducing N'Gath to a drooling wreck, who we can then find outside of the Mindscape.

This leaves Viserys with one or two Mythic Power remaining, for emergency use.

Thoughts and suggestions?

[X] Plan Extreme Closure
-[X] Final Buffs (assuming all normal combat buffs with a duration longer than round/level have already been cast by the party while hunting N'Gath), as well as:
--[X] Teana (in her Shadow-Traced form) will leave one of her Shadow duplicates behind before entering the chamber as an emergency escape measure. She creates a Ghost Wolf to accompany her into battle.
--[X] Zherys casts Repulsion using his Runestaff of Abjuration, then Arcane Spellsurge and Greater Blink.
--[X] Viserys casts Searing Agonizing Mass Fire Shield on everyone, Greater Blink, Transdimensional Freezing Glance, and Arcane Spellsurge. He activates his ring to gain a +2 bonus to his Dispel checks immediately before entering the chamber.
--[X] Rina casts Veil of Undeath on herself.
-[X] Upon entering the chamber and sighting N'Gath, Viserys acts first, followed by the others as the Initiative order dictates;
--[X] Viserys casts Nerveskitter (raising his Initiative bonus to +16), targets N'Gath with a Transdimensional Chain Dispel spell via Wild Arcana (+24 Dispel check bonus, rolled twice if necessary due to Eldritch Breath), then uses Transdimensional Freezing Glance against it as a Free Action (DC 30 Will save to avoid being Paralyzed).
--[X] Zherys casts True Casting as a Swift Action then targets N'Gath with a Maximized Disintegrate spell (DC 26 Fort save reduces damage from 216 HP to just 30 HP).
--[X] Rina casts Assay Spell Resistance, then targets N'Gath with a Maximized Fell Drain Destruction spell (DC 24 Fort Save-or-Die; successful save reduces damage to 60 HP and one Negative Level).
--[X] Teana sets her Ghost Wolf to attack N'Gath as a Free Action, casts Assay Spell Resistance, then targets it with Greater Shadow Enchantment to duplicate the effects of a Feeblemind spell (DC 32 Will save to avoid having Int & Cha reduced to 1 point).
-[X] If N'Gath survives the initial onslaught without being destroyed or Feebleminded, Viserys casts Celerity followed by Time Stop.
--[X] Once he recovers from being Stunned by Celerity, Viserys casts Assay Spell Resistance, assumes True Dragon form, then waits for the Time Stop to end. When time resumes, he targets N'Gath with Freezing Glance as a Free Action and Stun Ray via Miracle (Stunned for 1d4+1 rounds; DC 33 Fort save reduces Stun to 1 round) as a Swift Action. If the Stun Ray strikes N'Gath, Viserys then uses Transdimensional Polar Midnight via Wild Arcana as a Standard Action (DC 33 Fort save). If Stun Ray misses, Viserys instead targets N'Gath with a Transdimensional Avasculate (Halves remaining HP and Stunned for 1 round; DC 31 Fort save prevents Stun).

-[jk] Once N'Gath is dead or near death, Viserys devours him whole in True Dragon form.

You forgot that part :V

Love seeing Fire Shield and Freezing Glance in action, looking forward to the outcome of this venture.

Can I just say again how exciting it is to see Create Mindscape in action, I've been wanting this for a while, it's so very versatile you can even use it for non-violent diplomacy in complete privacy.

That is touch-range.
Not impossible, with her secure shadow trace left behind, but she'll still be the first to die.

Don't forget to vote, ya'll.

I've also added the level up plan in for Dirriz the Faerie Dragon.

I wonder if DP will one day let Ser Richard get Iron Heart Surge, even if a nerfed version, and Moment of Alacrity even if a nerfed version. Maybe just emulate Celerity with it? Time Stand Still is basically Greater Celerity in terms of functionality.
