I have the ultimate strategy for deafeating MindFlayers.. I just did the Secret Sewer section and wasted them all without one of them even TOUCHING ME! That's right the only one that is brain sucked is Minsc, except that's how he was born, I don't even think mind flayers could suck intelligence from THAT one.
Here's what a did:
Loaded a good melee fighter (a paladin, my main char) up with AC reducing equipment and boots of speed.
Loaded everyone else up with ranged weapons and ammo.
Casted Chaotic Commands on my Paladin
Walk my paladin along each corridor and lured one or two mind flayers back to my party waiting the the previous room, stopped at the door, closed it (optional if you want to haste, other spells or change your mind) and then opened it.
My paladin would proceed to get one or two hits on a flayer while the rest of the party pelted it with missle weapons. The poor brain suckers never had a chance they went down in a about two seconds each, even the Alhoon and Ilithids.
My paladin wasn't even touched at all, nothing got past the chaotic commands spell and they died before they could say 'Achoo!'
Wash, Rinse and Repeat until every single one of those monsters look like pincushions.
This is the ultimate strategy! I have yet to test it in the under dark.. I can't wait!
Brain Suckers Beware.. If you want some screen shots of the carnage afterwards check out this page...
