Yes.
All an Assassin need to make Beholders cry is those items. . . which, when combined, give the same effect as the Cloak of Mirroring, but you feel batter about it, since it takes more work to obtain all of them, and you can't use them until hitting ToB levels anyway.
As for the Imprisonment, I seem to remember the Book of Infinite Spells worked for me (once only), although that was a while ago. . . more recently, I get through the Hive Mother's defenses by having somebody whack her with C, but since that would mean putting your Assassin into melee, that could be a problem. Good thing that there's nothing wrong with using a stack of Traps against an enemy that cheesy.

I do not particularly mind encountering Dragons in the outdoors. It is the way you encounter it, and the AI that troubles me.

True. All the original wilderness Waylays had this problem, too--you just suddenly took it into your head to lead the party down a blind gully, and wait there until the enemies walk up behind you. But since BioWare's waylays consisted of nothing worse than Orogs, nobody cared.
I don't mind fighting the various types of beasties in this component, I simply demand more realism than Kensai Ryu saw fit to give us. And the opportinuty to run from any fight in which we do not wish to engage--except the Dragon fight, since they can see the invisible, and fly faster than you can run.

As for the damage, one must take note of Firetooth's existence. I have no idea why Firetooth and the Boomerang Dagger have Bastard Sword damage values, but they do.

I've never claimed that the Boomerang or Firetooth were balanced, either. [img]tongue.gif[/img] I do use them (and similar weapons, like CFury) occasionally, but only by non-Warriors, or in a Warrior's offhand.
