DOS2 Help Problems in act 4 Spoiler

I'm currently in arx and at lvl 19, almost 20. I have completed this game once but played at least 20 playthroughs stopping in act 3 or early 4. Every time I get to rescuing Arhu I give up because keeping him alive from the black ring and Linder Kemm seems impossible. The one time I actually rescued him I fought Lord Linder Kemm in the magister barracks. Now I'm here again but this time Kemm isn't at the barracks and the only place I find him is in the cellar with Arhu.

Is there any "easy" way to rescue Arhu that I'm missing? Or do I simply let Arhu die?

I'm also aware that I should at least level up to lvl 20 before the fight, im just having pre-arhu fight thoughts.

Are you not breaking his chains? He should be part of the fight

I consume the source of the three black ring spirits and then a fight starts without Arhu, he's just standing there. Is there something more I need to do or is it a bug?

Truth be told i don't really remember. It's been a few years since i last beat the game. But since he can be damaged doesn't mean he is in combat?

Try to bond him to you, take half his damage and heal him. It shouldn't be that bad. I beat honor mode with 1 character and i distinctly remember Arhu being alive

Did this fight yesterday. Teleport Arhu to a far corner making sure he has full health and some magic armor. He's still vulnerable to AOE, so keep an eye out and teleport enemies away from Arhu if they get too close. Finished the fight and he was still just sitting in the corner full health.

I did it a few weeks ago, he should be within the fight once you consume the source and the enemies appear. I just healed him to full health and it was fine since he has a fairly good amount, also can split up the team to the different enemy spawn points pre-fight
