I kind of agree with Cerek - I don't think there's anything inherently wrong with running away, especially from a TimeStop + MeteorSwarm combo, of COURSE I'm going to RunAway! for a few rounds - I think it's really cheesy only when you already know what he's going to do and make a preemptive strike with that info, as if you were clairvoyant, which you CAN be, if you reload I just try to play it as if I didn't know what he was exactly going to do... after that I have no problem with trying Cloudkills; personally I never had much success with those anyway, he kept walking out of it toward a party member... IIRC I had a much easier time with Jon by summoning Skeleton Warriors and using ranged weapons...

No, listen: your missing the cheese here. Running away from TS+MS is fine, but he stands in the fog of war and casts cloudkills at Irenicus. The cloudkill reaches him, but he is out of sight for Irenicus. Therefore Irenicus will just stand there like a goof and take damage. This happens because of inadequate AI. And like said, abusing AI = cheese.
