Those Ulithids are damn hard! That fight against 5 of them and 2-3 umber hulks was very challenging. I don't understand what ability they use to do it, but often I'd send my bulked up fighters in there and they'd take 3 damage from the Ulithid and die instantly. Whats up with that? That was hard until I figured out the 7th level summoned Sword works real nice against them.
Also the 5 Demon Knights from the Kua-Tuo(? Fish men) area in the Underdark are VERY tough, even for my 14-16 level party. They cast many different power words, have magic resistance, have level drain, and are kickass melee fighters. Ranged weapons work nice against them, as does the aforementioned summoned Sword though. |

Mind flayers. I'd rather fight 3 dragons at once than fight those sobs. If you want to modify a good monster do it with the mind flayers

Top 5 difficult monsters(in my opinion and in no order) All Mindflayers, large groups of demon knights, elder orbs(the ONLY difficult beholder) Balors, and Adamantium golems

Gnome one was annoying, but I have no particular ones in mind.

Have a combo. Like the Mindflayer/Umberhulk. Or Rakshasa and Hakeashar. Imust admit though my first tough fight was the lich at the city gates. Even now that lich has a special place in my heart. Thatlich acts as a good guide as too whether my party is "ready" or not.

Liches, definitely liches, mindflayers are easy with a priest and haste, whereas Liches usually require cheese tactics and are still nasty. Gauths can be nasty in groups, 'cos there so quick they'll wipe a party in a surprise ambush (unless you have shield and cloak of B & R, in which case they get wiped too easy). Think about combo's of monsters. On their any monster, even in a group can be dealt with, however, flayers beside Umbar hulks, much mre difficult etc.
