BG2 just hack and slash?? are u mad!?? Have you ever used just hack and slash on Kengaxx? Have you even beaten the game? Mages are the single most powerful class in existance and their protection and protection-removing spells are what make it so. If you are using a mage, u r not using it to it's full potential. I found this out recently... how dumb I felt!! You really should be experimenting with ALL the spells. Find out what works and what doesn't. I definately agree with summoning creatures for some battles (a lot really), but a lot of battles require different tactics. If you like summoning, try using a Sorcerer instead of a mage. Try summoning a full Earth Elemental, then give him spirit armor! Thats a kick ass creature!

But really, you need to try out all the spells. I didn't use some of the prot. spells for a long time. I tried them recently, and my sorcerer has become 5x more powerful!! HONEST! Try this: Stoneskin, then Melf's Minute Meteor, then Armor, then (minor) Globe of Invulnerability, then Spell Immunity: Abjuration, then any others you may have ( (minor) spell turning, Spell Shield, etc). Now walk into a battle by yourself and see what happens. [img]smile.gif[/img]
