The only problem with this is that Mind Flayers also drain intelligence. If your fighter has a low int score (Which they usually do...), this can be a real problem. Keep an eye on your intelligence. Every hit drains a few points. If they drain you to zero, you die.
I found the best strategy is to cast Haste, Bless, Prot from Evil, Chaotic Commands, then lead them in one by one. With 3-4 hasted fighters you should make short work of them. (Even the Ultra-Illithids)
