My first play through I was admittedly not optimizing my party or play style. Repeatedly losing this battle for 10 hours forced me to learn how to play much better lol.

The Halsin portal fight got me good for a while. I finally had to put some crowd control spells on my bars and learn how they worked

Crowd control spells are definitely worth slotting in BG3. Hypnotize or an upcast Hold X can immediately take an unwinnable fight into easy mode.

I tried that not realizing the quest was going to pop that kind of battle, did well the first two rounds but by round 3 the portal had taken serious damage. So, I nope'd my way back to a previous save and decided to hold off until I look into it a bit more and optimize my party.

I used that tactic. I put up wall on the dock to block ranged shots. I then put another wall up a few feet out from the dock. Beyond that I casted a Wall of Stone once the fight started. I had put oil and grease out there so once the spawns started showing I threw a fireball to light the area up and peppered the area with AE magics and arrows.
