Skraag:
Wooden building - fireballs, not a good combination. Skraag has already burned at least one building to the ground.
That...is an excellent point. Bear Rug, casks of wine- not that dangerous on its own but who knows if any harder alcohol is down here?
Yeah, maybe Scorching Rays and the like should be more the focus this fight- just a note, ray spells DO benefit from Inspire Courage being weapon-like.
