How can I defeat this huge monster with almost immune to all elements?

I'm using a lvl 25 type all-rounder Mage, a spellcaster(Lightning, Fire and Ice) and elemental summoner (Fire and Iron golem) and all of this are max level. Whenever I go to his place and try to destroy him, it all end to međź’€.

Both Hirge and Griss have all equipment from minotaurs, with crazy high ARMOR (32 and 35) and HP (450+ and 750+) yet not enough to stand against Kalagrus' pure brute strength.

This is the last thing I'm trying to defeat in EK!

Short Answer? Use a lot of resources. Like, every three seconds, you and your Companion are consuming something.

Scroll: Circle of Restoration will restore 50% and pop-up your Companion.
Potion of Lesser Restoration will help keep you alive for a few seconds at a time.
Medipack will give decent healing that might be on par with a Lesser Restoration potion under some circumstances.
Epic Omelette will help your Mage recover MP and HP to keep slinging spells.
Elixir of Galade gives okay HP with an armor boost, but the Demon's damage output is pretty high making the armor not that helpful.
Vial of the Iron Guardian might be a good emergency summon if you have to wait till your spell summon cool down.

Kalagru is the toughest fight in the game. Extremely high defense and extremely high physical damage. His total lack of elemental aspects means elemental defenses are moot, and elemental attacks against him are limited (Extremely high pure elemental attacks work, better if paired with Combustion).

The Sloth Lord is an outsider so Banishing works. For 2-H warrior, the Adamantite Greatsword is nifty (note the stun chance from 2-H Mastery), for 2-H Clerics, the Maul of Terror, and for a lot of mage staff builds, the Staff of the Traveller.

The Staff of Impact or Wand of Power, will do less damage than the Staff of the Traveler, but it has a small stun chance.

Paralysis weapons -in theory- could work. Give your heavily defensed Warrior Companion Shadow Blade and hope they trigger paralysis enough times to be useful (or the Midnight for clerics).

One of the tactical decisions is to either aim to use your Companion mainly as chew toy and build him or her to take as much punishment as possible, or to try to make your Companion an offensive powerhouse to help overcome the intense defenses of the Sloth Lord.

It's a long, tough fight.

Thanks for this I finally destroy Kalagru. Indeed, it's a long, wasteful of resources, frustrating, tough fight.

He's the hardest fight in the game, totally optional. So not much else to use those supplies?

Spend all 13 Potion of Lesser Restoration and all 20 Greater Potion of Mana. And I think 5 or more Elixir of Galade for HP.

For me, it's worth the waste.
