Come on Guys,about the lich thing.The lich is the most fun creature to fight against whit a solo spell caster.You don't need to be worried about if someone sticks a dagger in your back or anything like that.this is only about your spells whitch one of you got the better tactic,and which one of you are more powerful. You maybe say "He used inprisonment on me and when i am soloing it will go to Game over" So what? You can do that also.There is no spell the lich does that you can't do also.And i have played whit both Cl/Ma and Sorcerer and i would set my vote on "The sorcerer"

I'd give my eye teeth to be able to cast ranged imprisonment a la 'trap the soul'

[img]tongue.gif[/img] But standing around for the SIs to wear out is rather, well, tedious. But that's just me.

Re: The Epic Battle thing. How many battles honestly last that long? I can think of only a couple: Ascension and Improved Irenicus. And with some good spell conservation, both of them are possible.

Oh, and just to poke a flaw in your analogy (this is purely for fun, don't take it seriously [img]tongue.gif[/img] ):

The chances of you NOT getting the rest option is akin to a full health, decently equipped, Level 20 Minsc being defeated by a barefisted Level 1 Kobold.
And if he's stunned and that Kobold is a wizard who has a scroll of Imprisonment?

Multiple Spell Immunities, Spell Trap, Death Spell
( for his MSwords) and the Sling of Everand.

The greatest weakness of all AI opponents is that they have to follow a script.

[/QUOTE]Ture, its just a case of discovering his different tactics/ spells and finding a counter to them. But that sounds more boring than it is [img]smile.gif[/img]

Doesn't he constantly recast Physical Mirror, or is that a once-only buff at the beginning?
