There are always situations where it isn't possible however and having a contingency plan is the best way to survive. Any mage with stoneskin already up becomes immune to your technique. Poisoned arrows of dispelling will soon solve that.
A great example is Reyic Gethras who will have stoneskin up before you get to him. Without running up and down stairs to hide in shadows again, how else are you supposed to kill him?
Backstab after backstab... Potions of Invisibility are as common as Healing Potions in the game. Factor in the Ring of Invisibility and other items that enable you to cast Invisibility spells, and sooner or later, he will run out of Stoneskins.

No need to run up and down.

Alternatively, you can go to a corner invisibly and out of sight and lay as many traps as you can. Walk forward a bit, say peekaboo and run to and fro( stealthing when he is out of sight. If you stealth before he finishes casting his spell, his spell will fizzle. You will need to practise your timing, but this was how my solo Assassin did it, bless her mischevious heart [img]smile.gif[/img] ), forcing him to waste his spells. When he runs out of spells, he will walk towards you and... kick the barrel.
