Killing Hjollder without screwing up the game's progression
![OlderThan13Years](https://forums.beamdog.com/uploads/userpics/737/nP9AHNT68CKTL.png)
Hi there,
it's been about 20 years since the last time I really played IWD to the end so I am somewhat rusty and need some help:
Is there a way to kill Hjollder that doesn't prevents me from starting Heart of Winter and allows me to finish the main quest? What I actually want is his Warhammer +4:Defender. I know it's probably possible using a spell caster but I would like to know a method that works for a solo dwarven defender. Maybe one can get his weapon during the HoW quest, so killing is not necessary, but I dunno.
With a mage or a similar class you could bring him down to 1 HP than charm him, initialize his dialog and than kill him using a delayed damage effect (e.g. poisson) before you get teleported to the expansion (there's a small time window after the dialog in Kuldahar and before the teleportation). So if there's an item for non-mages that allows to charm people, it can be done.
Perhaps it's possible from HoW but assume you need him to get back to Kuldahar?
Any thoughts on this?

Probably that's going to be difficult. It seems that the transition from Kuldahar to HoW starts right after ending his dialog (pause button doesn't work). The only way to get him seems to be during the HoW quest line.
