Ya, Illithids and Lichs...anyone know the difference between an illithid and a mind flayer anyway? In any case, the most annoying part about them is that you think your fighter is doing fine, his hit points are high, he is kicking ass, then he drops dead from intelligence drain. It is the most annoying thing to keep track of, and it virtually illiminates the possibility of using berserker rages to counter the confusion, since you cant pull your warrior out when his intelligence gets too low, and that happens QUICKLY if you are using Minsc. As for lichs, the most annoying part is that some of your spells dont work on them, like breach, so there is absolutely NO way to end their protection from magical weapons early.
