Jonny is a wuss, especially compared to the other difficult enemies in the game, including all of the Dragons. A solo Mage can kill him using only a Level 1 spell, a Level 3 spell, a Level 7 spell, and, oh, a Dagger+2.

Cast Monster Summoning 1 to get some Gibberlings or something. Who cares.
Giggle to yourself as you watch the idiot use his only Death Spell.
Cast Summon Hakeashar on the poor fool who has no physical attacks.
Cackle out loud as you watch Jonny Heal your summon.
When Jonny runs out of every spell except Magic Missile, cast Shield on yourself and jump in for a melee. Even if you can only hit on Criticals, you'll still get him. Shield will last for 5 turns.
Now if you could only loot Jon's Robe.....

Andrewas really had it down when he said:
Irenicus is the most powerful magic-using enemy in the game, but the AI isnt up to making him a threat.
Except for one thing: I thought Shangalar was tougher.
