Maybe it's a bit late to point this, and bit sure if anybody else noticed. But in the first three panels Xykon's skull has been cracked by Durkon's hammer, but immediatedly after that his skull is fine.

Either Xykon's got a magic item to regenerate HP or mass reminder that more healing probably happens off-panel (https://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots1040.html).

Regeneration; the way Redcloak is running away while they continue with dialogue suggests he did not stop to heal what is largely a superficial damage.

Not saying impossible, just intriguing... would undead need a special regeneration ring (that would kill a living being)?

He can't cast while running?

You can’t run at full speed while taking any actions, IIRC. That might be a rule Rich is ignoring, but it actually makes intuitive sense so I’m guessing it’s still relevant.

A Ring of Perpetual Annoyance, clearly.

Reason #22 Serini is going to stop the Order before they can jump out of the portal... Xykon might be able to craft a ring out of Elan's lute-finger bones that would make him basically immortal (see panel 6 (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0488.html)). (^_~)

More seriously, is it just me or does it seem like Xykon wouldn't bother with regeneration? Imo he counts on being able to regenerate at his phylactery (infinite respawns) more than he does on winning immediately.
