Fighting against holding attacks takes magic items:
Keldorn's special plate mail
Ring of Free Action
Other major dangers are charm and confusion spells.
Lilacor and Adjatha the drinker come to mind.
The 5th lvl Cleric spell Chaotic Commands is a must.
Also spell turning - but this is only good for mages, and very short times.
Note that ONLY Chaotic commands works against psionics in real D&D; there should be no saving throw against a psionic blast. Luckily you get on in BG2. Also, there are a lot of effects which are amazingly slow to occur: things like magic missile, psionic blast, fireball, confusion, etc. can be guided to a less dangerous place is the character who is the primary target is wearing boots of speed.
