1. Twisted Rune
2. Kangaxx
3. Mind Flayers (both in Temple district sewers and in Underdark)
4. Gangs in Promenade inn, Temple sewer - prob. tuff due to low exp. lvl.
5. [don't know how hard the final battle w/ Mr. I. is yet but I'm scared]

__I killed the dragons (Thaxll'ssilliya, Firkraag) fairly easily using the ol' cast-Magic-Resistance-to-LOWER-their-resistance trick - I guess it's not so studly a way to do it but heck, it's hinted at in the Manual.
__Kangaxx we did kill in a respectable way, wearing him down face-to-face, with my Bard protected by Spell Immunity...don't know how I would fare w/out that.
__I resorted to Limberger-level tactics on the Twisted Rune [see post re finishing BG2 w/out reloads for details] and even that was hard, so to do it the NON-DAIRY way would probably be a supreme test for me.
__I wuz able to block the MindFlayers w/invisibled party members in the hall while we threw a bunch of rocks at them [Camembert?] - it must be murder face-to-face even with Chaotic Commands [ever see that old movie "The Brainiac"?]

QUESTION: IS THE TWISTED RUNE JUST AS HARD IF THEY SPAWN IN THE UMAR HILLS? (if anyone's had that happen to them after saying the wrong things to the guy outside the inn...) 'cos I didn't even bother to fight, just reloaded...
