Ok that cloak is very powerfull I have to admit that. But it has it's limits. Area of effect spells work wonders on it. Meator Swarm, Ice storm, fireball, Cone of Cold, Confusion, etc. And being invisiable makes it really hard to target the mage
What do you do when the mage summons a Pit Fiend or two, and is protected from evil?
How about when the warrior in question does not have the mighty hammer of doom or the holey avenger, and does not have the cloak of relfection?
4 rounds of immunity to warrior's weapons goes along way too. Toss in time stop and your talking 7-8 rounds of immunity. Toss on him a copple lower resistence spells, malistrom, and slow. No save on a Meteor Swarm my friend. Once your done hammering on him with that a few times it's time for Power word KILL.
And if your not that high level. Remember it only takes 1 failed save to get Disintegrated. The computer mages are at a dissadvantage I have to agree on that.
Still your average Lich can hold off my party for several rounds. Most everything else can't.
And they give you in BGII some of the best mage stopper items in D&D. Wonder if the main bad guy you have to fight is a mage....hummm......

my friend, please DO NOT use area effect spells. unless I am gibbering idiot, I will not sit there and let you finish the spells and toss on me.
also, a potion of magic resistence gives me 50% magic resistence, a potion of magic shielding give me -20 save vs spell, it would take a mage close to eternity to lower those. a mage will not even damage a fighter.
and you never read my post, did you? i said, scoll of protection from magic, DISABLE mages' spell casting.
summons wont work on fighters, since he can run. area spells wont work, since he can run. mages have no way to win
once again, the circumstances is BGII.
