Mind Flayers...can't target invisible characters so use invisible stalkers.
Umber Hulks: Cloud kill all die immediately
Rakshassa: Incendary Cloud(most dam spell) and run!
Vampires: Fireball and Hide...repeat
Beholders: Low saving throws or lots of protection scrolls, try invisiblility
Golems: Crom Faeyr, +3 hammers, +3 weapons and lots of elementals.

P.S. is Airial Servant the best monster to summon? other than fiends.

Mind Flayers: Minsc or (insert favorite tank here) and brine solution.
Flayer slaying is then like beating up on goblins. If no brine solution
is available, try stealth, speed and surprise. Dead Mind Flayers can't
hit you with psionic blast.
Vampires: Daystar undead-nuke. Backstabbing with flame-tounge is also nice.
My stalker took out that spellcasting-vampire minion of Bhodi (forgot
her name) that way. Her contingency spells went off post-mortem.
Liches: The good old Summoning/pierce magic/breach/false dawn/chess game.
Or see above.
Dragons: LOTS OF RELOADS http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...iles/smile.gif. Has anyone hit the shadow dragon w/ daystar?
I missed daystar with my first group and the others have not met the
shadow dragon yet. I will try it, but if it works I will reload.
My Cavalier would not stand for such a dishonorable act. He prefers to
be level drained. http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...miles/wink.gif
Demi-liches: MORE RELOADS. What do you mean that Viconia's magic resistance
does not affect imprisonment??? Every round at will? Hey, where did
everyone go? 100% magic resistance? Why don't my lower resistances
work? Then try Minsc w/+4 weapon or Korgan w/+4 weapon.
Beholders: Aside from SoB and the Cloak, try fire elementals. I cleared the
(certain ch2/3/6 quest) beholders that way. Works like a charm.

I don't much care for Aerial Servants myself. They do not have survivability of an elemental and their invisibility, while handy, means no Death Ward for them. When I fight a lich or other high level spellcaster, I use both aerial servants and fire elementals. The FEs, aside being imune to fireball, sunfire and fire shield (red) seem to last longer when A's horrid wilting is cast in the area. Lack of a death ward also shortens the life expectancy of AEs in this case.

Liches - Feeblemind or Power Word Silence. Failing that, Viconia controls them and you keep on backstabbing
.
Vampires - Azuredge, Mace of Disruption, Backstabs
.
Kangaxx - character from front has Spell Shield vs Abjuration, Pro vs Magic or is berserk
Character from behind hits with upgraded Mace of Disruption

Gd_00 05-02-2001 08:57 AM

kangaxx -- slayer
mind flayers - archers (hit and run), fighter with shield of harmony & int over 10 (every mflayers succ hit -5 int)
vampires -- daystar, mace pf disrup., or any other good wep.
liches - traps, archers, summoned creatures -- hit him before he casts all his magics (pause - atack = dead or near dead), then breach, ruby ray
dragons -- lower res, bunch of mag misiles,two good tanks (when mag. misiles hit tanks hit --- very good dam.), dont forget breach
golems --- blunt wep ---- Crom Feyer --- smash them

DRAGONS: Wand of coudkill! Stand where dragon can't see you and fire off 5-10 charges in a row(don't stop). Dead in secs. (A level 1 mage could kill a dragon this way!)

"I'm sorry, did I kill you?"

Mind Flayers - Chaotic Commands. If one hits you, run around for a few seconds and pile on back in

How about using the console spawning in a demi-lich and a red dragon then RUN LIKE HELL!!!

Cast a spell in the city to summon Cowled Wizards. Then spawn in Firkraag, then Cntrl-J to other side of map and laugh as Wizards try to stop rampaging Firkraag

Cayle 05-03-2001 05:39 AM

LOL! I have to try that!
