No, no planetars but you have to suppose 60 - 90% magic resistance. All drows there have this level of magic resistance. Sorry.

Come on Xen... you worry about the Drow? Worry about the Imp. Illithids and the Imp. Eye Tyrants.. they will mess you up if you aren't carefull enough.

Though Skeleton Warriors seem to work well against Drow War Parties...

Summon spells tend to bypass resistances. Other than that, use anything that lowers resistance and just keep trying (after you cast sufficient protection spells of course). But apart from two or three groups, you hardly have to fight any drow at all. Although that's optional.

These improved Mages ( especially drow ones ) are beginning to tick me off.
I dunno who wrote that script,.. but he basically gave every mage a few triggers to be protected from about anything to begin with .. and one more contingency after a while with fireshields andimproved invisibility.

So now that we have even the smallest, puniest mage completely protected .. they thought I'd be funny to give every mage atleast one imprisonment.

I have a party with no mages at all .. and am getting a wee bit sick of trying to avoid imprisonment or reload ( cant cast Freedom )

With the added drow magic resistance .. Insect plague is futile too

So Skeleton Warriors and Mordekanine`s Swords..

Dundee...how did you fought them???

I know, I really hate the ''smarter mages/liches'' component of the Tactics mod... especially liches who will call you back if you run away because your party is getting slaughterd... really annoying!

I had to Un-Install this specific component for a while because I simply couldn't take it with a low level party

Probaly yes, because they both have high ressistances vs magic (not sure about the mordie's though hardly ever use them now a days because I don't even need to summon anymore

).. making them excellent summons to fight against high magic users (do you remember your Imp. Twisted Ruins fight

?)

Just watch out for deathspells (don't know if they even have one memorized but with Tactics.... probaly 1 or 2 at least

)
