ssling: I finished this game once about 10 years ago and I remember I had a lot of trouble with final boss and had to use some cheap techniques to defeat him. Now I finished it again (with Libertatis mod) and it seems like Akbaa is casting his spells only at the very beginning of the fight but after a short while he becomes very passive and basically only standing or floating there and maybe hitting me with his tentacle occasionally which makes this battle really easy to win. I tried reloading save few times but it always ends like this eventually, sometimes he even does nothing at all from the beginning.

It's also possible that I had issues first time because I played as pure mage then and now as pure warrior which I think makes this particular fight much easier in general but still it doesn't look right.
