My skeleton warriors are falling to the ground after 2 /3
illithid-hits. Im pretty sure i liked them so much last time, because their minds werent there to be sucked out, and therefore were basically immune to illithids.

Am i (again) remembering wrong ?

How' bout mordekainens sword ?
The illithids don't care if it has a brain or not. the weapon has a special effect of draining 5 pts or so of intelligence with each hit, no save, unaffected by MR. if a creature has intelligence less than what is the minimum required by that race, he/she/it dies. Period. because this death is caused by the world not allowing an impossible creature to exist, the illithid (or mage with Shapechange) gets no points for killing something, because the GAME killed it. thus, gnomes die at 3 INT, half-orcs at 0, everyone else at 2. sorry.

So, potions of genius work well, but bows and arrow work better.
