They simply outnumber us.

Some tips would be appreciated.
Ever the fan of the imbibables, let me offer you some potion strategy. If you have any potions of defense, invulnerability, clarity, or magic shielding/blocking, drink 'em. Beholders are spell-filled gasbags. These potions will make you more resistant to spells by lowering your saving throws (defense/invulnerability), providing temporary immunity from charm spells (clarity), or providing magic resistance or temporary immunity (shielding/blocking).

Watch out for that Elder Orb's imprisonment! It's a touch spell with Beholders too, so don't get too close.
