i have another question, if the weapon is a +1 or +2, does that count as magical?[/QUOTE]Yes it does count as magical. For non-magical you need just a plain old 2 gold piece sword or whatever. I've never tried using a non magical weapon like Desuma suggested. That may be your easiest route but if you don't want to do that I would dispel whatever illusions he uses(mirror images, etc.) with Aerie, if she knows a detect illusion, true seeing or something. If you do that you can cast summon insects with Jaheira and that will eat up his stoneskin and interupt his spell casting after that. I usually spread out if I have a party because he casts a confusion or something, so if you have someone protected from that keep them the closest. If Aerie can breach him next do that and whack away with minsc, Yosh and yourself. Acid arrows are handy against some mages because even if the arrow doesn't penetrate a stoneskin the acid does, unless of course they have a protection from acid cast.
I hope some of this helps you.
