There are many other things that could have been said but this is a short. His sword doesn't increase your chance to hit him, he also has resistance to fire dmg so the max bonus dmg you can get from the sword 2 assuming a roll of a 4, so reducing your dmg on him by one spell (inflict wounds which can deal up to 30dmg) to get him to drop it and the turn it takes to equip the sword which could of been an attack roll with 2d6 slashing, 1d4 fire from lae'zel, the extra fire dmg you can already have from dipping your weapons in the fire as you walk up, so to do what your talking about you would be missing out on up to 38dmg not counting crits. Tip 4 tells you to use both guiding bolt and inflict wounds for dmg because you are in a race against time before the other 2 join the fight, thus no spell slot for command assuming you are not playing a spell caster class yourself as that tip would not be useful to those who are not playing spell casters, if you were playing a spell caster why wouldn't you just use your spells to put more dmg on him, and that would require you to respec your spells on shadowheart which most new people who could benefit from these tips might not know and might take its own short to explain properly. When you kill Zhelk the mindflayer turns on you and then you have to kill him as well which is ideal because that will award you another 75xp for a 150xp from just the two of them, so you having a very healthy mindflayer doesn't help you in your race against time. if your goal is just to take his sword you can just command him to drop it pick it up and run but you'll miss out on a very juicy 150xp.
