To this day, i still take tremendous delight in recalling the beauty of using Time Stop with my old elven fighter-mage, Thalion.
He would cast Time Stop, followed by Improved Alacrity...then throw a few resistance-killers at the dragon, and then go up close combat style and just completely smash the bastard with his dual-wielded katanas and longswords. i remember specifically, when he fought Draconis, that he did pretty much this thing...then kicked in his greater whirlwind for his close attack, and by the time the Time Stop duration ran out, the dragon's lifeless corpse collapsed to the ground while Thalion was in mid-swing.
Time Stop is a beautiful thing! it's one of the main reasons i love playing mages in BG/ToB.
