What's the conventional wisdom for anti-protection spells? I'm not sure exactly which spells I should be aiming to get. Spellstrike, for example, seems quite nice. But is it completely necessary for a solo Sorcerer, or will something like Ruby Ray of Reversal or Pierce Shield work just as well? I presently do not have any protection-dispelling magic; I've been using scrolls for that purpose.
(Rest of post contains references to Mind Flayers, Bodhi, Planar Sphere, and the Planar Prison quest. Blah blah blah, if you haven't encountered these things before and don't want any tidbits spoiled, don't read on.)
Does anything protect against Mind Flayers' mind devouring? I have an Improved Mind Flayer mod installed, but I've been largely unable to take down the hordes of them in the Sewers dungeon. The primary reason being that when I cast Time Stop they continue to take certain actions. Lots of Dimension Dooring (thereby making them impossible to target with Lower Resistances), Mazes, Dominations, Disintegrates, etc. Rotten little buggers. Anyway, the Time Stop does little to allow me to kill them and eventually they Dimension Door next to me and chow on my brains. It almost makes me wish I hadn't left Anomen in the Abyss (via Planar Sphere quest) so I could drag him along for the Devourers to lunch on.
Is there a time frame in which one is supposed to meet Bodhi? I meant to meet up with her, but now when I go visit (at night) she's never there. I know where she's supposed to be, but she just isn't. Could I have taken too long to go see her? (I am, indeed, still in Chapter 2.)
Is there anything, besides the Boots of Speed, that I'd miss if I skipped the Planar Prison quest? I can get the Boots elsewhere, but I don't remember if there's something else there a mage would want but be unable to get anywhere else. (The current plan involves something most regrettable happening to Haer'Dalis which would result in being unable to do the quest.)
