[QUOTE="Thanee, post: 1559658, member: 478"] Not, if you hit him with dimensional anchor first. :D I actually have some experience with mage-killing, as my first D&D3E character (played from 1st to 19th level) was pretty good at that. She was an elven rogue/wizard/arcane trickster (archer) with HUGE initiative bonus (usually somewhere in the teens), a quite nasty damage output (buffed) and a very good spell selection. She could use greater scrying (mind blank wasn't universally used back then ;)) and teleport (without error later) to follow a fleeing mage within 2 rounds (if he was fast enough to not get dimensional anchored immediately, there were usually plenty of those prepared (and there's always limited wish otherwise - I think I used this spell once or twice per evening ;)), some even transferred to the familiar for two immediate chances to nail the mage down (until he can dispel it)). As a spellcaster she has the means to counteract standard anti-mage-killing tactics. A monk simply lacks these. That's the problem with the monk and mage-killing. Bye Thanee [/QUOTE]
