[QUOTE="Wrahn, post: 1846585, member: 9191"] -Range: Mindblast has a range of 60ft (if I recall correctly). Make a rolling ambush (shoot, run, shoot), keep out of mind blast range. -Protection from Evil: They will try to dominate/charm (they have one of these, I can’t remember which) and in addition this will add additional protection from the mind blast. -Allies: Lots of people hate the flayers, getting a group of Githzerai to help will make the fight a lot easier. -Concentrate on one, take them down as quickly as you can. This is just sound tactical advice, 3 guys down 20 hit points each are still three mind blasts. 2 unwounded ones and one dead one is only 2. -Summon things to slow them down if you are going with the rolling ambush, make them waste their mind blasts and other magic on the summoned creatures. -Hit them from all sides, make sure if they are mind blasting you, they are going to catch one of their allies -Traps, if you can make them chase you, make them regret it. In short if you can control the situation, you will be in a lot better shape. I am not sure you are going to be able to do that, but that is the best suggestions I have to offer. [/QUOTE]
