I'm playing a warriror and I'm an RPG vet.  I thought all missions up to the Cyclops were almost too easy.  Constantly had 20 health potions on me, never died.  Then all of a sudden the game gives me the Cyclops quest and the game becomes IMPOSSIBLE!  I keep dying over and over again!  I'd like to punch whoever worked on the balancing for this game, if anyone even did.  I really don't want to replay the same missions again to level up beyond level 6, because I already found all the hidden rooms.

Advice?  I already have basically the best armor and weapons I can find/buy.

Only level 6?

I recommend being level 8. Playing with a friend on co-op also makes the game easier.

I am a sorceress, and she can heal characters and summon monsters. Very cool.

Well, with a lot of hit and run and skipping half the monsters on the level before the cyclops proper, I beat the quest at level 7.  Now the rest of the quests seems to be a cakewalk again.  Weird!

I also do the hit and run thing and had little trouble with the cyclops level. I run by, get a hit and then circle back for another pass. I save up turning into the monster for when I get into big crowds of bad guys. I did notice the difficulty ramp up with the cyclops level, but I was able to handle it.

I just ran into this very problem with the same quest. When I got the quest I was level 6 and thought the game was a tad too easy, then *BAM* out of no where the difficulty went through the roof and I could not beat the quest.

I really think someone  screwed up with the balancing of this quest.

I think most of the players here are bad at the game. The whole thing was easy. Sorry, it was.

Some people rush into the game and don't level up a little bit. I always repeated each level twice after finishing it and always had as many health potions just in case. I don't even recall losing in this game.

I ranged them all at level 7 without losing any health.
