I don't know why its so low, my THACO is -7 but if you are refering to base thaco its 4 which I hope is still good.

I now have some really good saving throws.

SPELLS: 0
BREATH:2
PARALYZE: 1
POISON/DEATH:0

My spells one has got so low because I got some amulted from an elder orb which is -2 to all saving throws. I haven't really got any decent amulet or gauntlets yet.

But good news, I recently found my last piece for the equalizer, I now have, HILT, BLADE, AND POMMEL JEWEL, is that all of it? And if show do you recommend me using it.

I am probably the only one, but I find BEHOLDER, AND BEHOLDER KIN, ELDER ORB ETC easyyyyyyyyyyyyyy. I guess I am also the only one who found the Umar Hills quest harder that Windspear hills.

The thing is my fighter has this amazing cloak which is called cloak or mirroring, all offensive magic, like magic missile, flame arrow, thunder, chromatic orb etc gets reflected to the attacker.

And also I have a shield that protects me from hold person, domination, confusion and it gives me a MIND SHIELD.

Basically my FIGHTER can go up against anything he takes down all these idiot 10 eyed monsters in a flash.

HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOWEVVVVVVVVVVVVERRRRRRRRRR

He does have one flaw and only one, he keeps getting his intelligence drained by mind flayers, well at least he used to till I got my AC to -11 so they never hit me. But if they do hit me has anyone got anyway to advise me to protect against this.

You can't prevent Intelligence drain, you can however, get Skeletons and Skeleton warriors to tank for you while you attack the Mind Flayers with spells and missile weapons.

Skeletons and their ilk, are immuned to Psionics so they are very good against Mind Flayers.

Nope, no way to protect against it (other than a low AC). Does anyone know if quaffing potions of genius helps? Are they cumulative? If so, you could quaff some (they last a decent time) and that would give you extra intelligence to help buffer against their attacks.
