You do not need Spell Turning or Deflection. All you need is a Wand of Cloudkill and the Cloak of the Sewers.

Fire off a gas bubble from the wand, retreat a bit, fire another bubble, and, when the Eye Tyrants come after you, you turn your self into a Mustard Jelly and use your self as bait to keep them in the Cloudkill. They can't harm you, and, very soon, they die. If they don't die from the Cloudkill, while they are weakened it is quite easy to smack the crap right out of them as a Mustard Jelly. This works in the Unseeing Eye Quest, and, it works wonders in any beholder infested area.

This is the easy way, no cheesy items from the Bonus Merchants required.
Ok.I don`t have the Wand Of Cloudkill becuase i don`t have enough money to buy it.So what is the hard way?

The Mustard Jelly from the Cloak of the Sewers actually will get chopped up pretty badly by Beholders. It has very unimpressive resistances, zero to Magic if I recall correctly.

The Mustard Jelly form from the Cloak of the Sewers does indeed have only 10% Magic Resistance. Makes me wonder what that form is supposed to be good for, as the other two certainly have their merits.....

But normal Mustard Jellies, and the MJ you become via the Polymorph Self spell, do in fact have 100% MR. Great for making fun of Cowled Wizards (or Beholders, until they Anti-Magic Ray you).

How about the Cloak of Mirrors? I know u'll have to go through SpellHold and stuff, but that piece of cloak is the best weapon u can use against Beholders... Walk around, stand still, all the beholders die .....

And another one of the fun things of being a mustard jelly (polymorph-self version ) against a few beholders,.. is that they cast anti-magic rays.
This usually dispells your rather slimey little weapons and effectively allows you to attack with what was orginally in your weapon-slot.

My fighter/mage had a blast going throught he unseeing eye as a mustard Jelly wielding Celestial Fury and Sanchuudoku

Heh, it's easier going through the game as a slime rather than a pumped up hero, heh, who knew?
