As for killing him, it is far harder considering his large amount of [[Hit Points]], [[Armour Class|AC]] and being resistant to most [[Damage Types]] you can deal. However, there are three (or four if you picked it up in the last room), [[Nautiloid Tank|Nautiloid Tanks]] that are powerful explosives. While he is resistant to fire damage, all 3 to 4 tanks can take down half his health if the rolls are in your favor on both his [[Saving Throw]] and the damage rolled. It is recommended to only blow up the tanks once the Mind Flayer he is fighting has softened him up first. Also, disarming him as stated above will greatly lower his lethality. If he is still alive, using [[Caustic Bulb|Caustic Bulbs]], [[Spiked Bulb|Spiked Bulbs]], [[Magic Missile|Magic Missiles]] (If running as a [[Wizard]] or [[Sorcerer]]) and normal attacks to finish him off. Do keep in mind when he dies, the Mind Flayer will become hostile to you.

==== Helpful Tips ====
Commander Zahlk hits very hard, but he can be beaten. One of the easiest ways to beat him is to make sure you recruit Shadowheart, and change one of her prepared spells to Command. Command: Drop will cause Zahlk to drop his very strong sword, and force him to resort to unarmed attacks which deal nowhere near as much damage. You can also immediately retrieve the sword, which is the best reward from the encounter itself.
When 11 rounds remain, two Cambions will reach you from further in the ship. They will target your Party over the Mindflayer, unless the Mindflayer engages them. If the Mind Flayer is still alive after Zahlk is dead, the Mind Flayer will turn on you.
