Thanks dan, silent bob, and rimjaw. I hit him with pierce magic (Nalia) and Doom (Vicky) at the same time - and proceeding to go through him like warm butter. A few things were interesting:
1. When he was shambling mound (vulnerable to electricity), celestial fury was still blocked by MR.
2. I caught him in ice form when i hit with pierce magic & doom. Then flame strike for 30-35 pts damage. (I had memorized 3 and only used one).
3. But, the kicker was that my dual F/T PC started hitting for real damage after the pierce and doom - though no one else's hits got better. I was using Daystar & Adjatha, I have 18/9? STR and I was doing 7-9 hp per hit, at several attacks a round (2 weapon + **** and boots of speed - that's 5 attacks I think). I'm wondering why my "golden boy" protagonist was able to do this. Anyone have thoughts?

Yeah, Dundee, the Harm idea struck me, but I figured I'd have too many front-liners (PC + Valygar + Mazzy) and summons in there to chance trying a one-shot touch spell w/ Vicky.

So, thanks all. Now I'm getting creamed by the denizens of hell and the abyss in L3 Watchers (Maze). That will be another post, though.
