We had 5 warriors and 3 rogues, 1 mage and 1 warlock. We lamented that lack of adequate AoE was what caused our defeats. Perhaps in recognition of the paucity of AoE we should have handled the encounter differently. Instead of the mage trying to kill the bats, we might have done better with a warrior tanking the bats and 1-2 rogues or warriors killing them off, with the mage hitting the boss. If a new flock of bats comes up only after the previous flock of bats dies, perhaps this could have worked.
Also everyone could have been furnished with a healthstone. As a rogue I had to burn a bandage and a potion each time we fought the boss and I still died.

Jeklik is near impossible w/o adequate AOE to kill the bat groups. Having said that, the faster you get her to 50% the less bats you see. W/o adequate AOE, you spend too much mana healing mages that you'll need later for the tank and others. Melee be ready to bandage yourselves if conditions permit.
Also, if you get her to 20%, she starts hitting harder. Healers be ready.
