Fighter's Challenge Strategies? what Challenge? What strategies? You go pop in, and kill everything. Back in a corner if you have to to not get the mage hurt, but with wearing full heavy armor the only creature in there that can hurt you are the big poison cloud ones, and a simple poison shield from mage makes that useless. Not including all the potions you never had to use before that point being saved up, and the ingredients that have never been used. Fighter's Challenge is one of the few fun parts, cause there are soo many enemies to kill in one area, without any puzzles before you and them.

Just done this myself, on hard, without anyone dying, and where I'd only just stepped into the entrance of L7 (so I wasn't too uber powerful).

Tried the "Throw everything through the portal" thing, but although I must have killed a couple, it didn't really do much and wasted tonnes of resources, so didn't bother with that afterwards.

Instead I gave my 2 backliners (mage and rogue) a healing potion each, 2 speed potions on my 2 fighters (human evasion, and minataur tank) at the front, and healing potions divided between my frontliners with the rest of my bottles. Everyone had shields. Rogue had the Poison shooting dagger, one of my fighters had the Flaming sword.

I popped my two speed potions and charged through the portal, IMMEDIATELY turned left, and started spamming fireballs, poison shots, axe swings and firesword shots at the enemies infront of me, took a few tries as my mage and rogue usually died too quick, but one time I got a lucky break where I only had two enemies between me and the wall.

So I charged forward, oblitterating those two (you can throw bombs at the same time just by picking them up and "dropping" them at the top of your screen, rather than using someone's hand cooldown). and got to the wall. Had to use a healing potion on everyone. Anyways then I clicked the secret button, immediately turned right, killed another one, and dived straight into the alcove and turned my back.

Then I was safe, my two fighters at the front taking ALL the damage. My mage then spammed fire bursts and spear pokes, my rogue merrily stabbing away with my two fighters using the other two speed potions, and then hacking away between chugging healing pots. While fighting I just kept making healing pots and slashing away, soon enough there were no enemies left, and tadaa, everyone was still alive.

It took me a bunch of tries, but I figured out the easy way to doing this.

First, you'll need the gold key you get from killing the Ogre (so do that first, obviously, and don't use it in the treasure room before you come here, obviously).

Now, as soon as you teleport in, run forward and use whatever projectile attacks you typically use. This should get you either to the gate, or right in front of it. Now you're basically going to fight to the keyhole, use the gold key, and enter the gated area.

At that point, you're only facing attacks from one direction, and these guys are pretty wimpy when they don't have you surrounded.

And grab the Shield of Valor for a needy front line fighter.
