[QUOTE="kreynolds, post: 459163, member: 2829"] What exactly are his stats, primarily Intelligence? Usually all it takes to defeat a wizard is a few rounds of melee against a baddie with at least 80% more hit points and the sucker is dead. EDIT: If the wizard is that much more powerful than the rest of the party, you might consider doing whatever you can to rescue the game. What it all comes down to is that having one uber-powerful player and 3 or 4 normal ones makes for a sucky game for the other 3 or 4. You could energy drain the holy crap out of him, ability drain him till he's senseless and get those scores down. That would definately reign him in a bit. You mentioned that he tends to kill everything before the rest of the party arives. That tells me he likes to charge ahead of everybody. If so, then this is perfect. Set up an Energy Drain trap and place some Intelligence draining monsters around. Beef up the monster as much as you can with an Ogre Mage and let the beastie drain away until your satisfied.
