SpC offers assay spell resistance at level 4 (which your sorcerer would also be able to read off a scroll) and that grants +10 to the SR check against one individual opponent.  In your situation, it seems pretty easy which opponent that would be.  All of the orb of ___ and lesser orb of ___ spells will do decent damage and bypass the formian's SR.Magic Item Compendium offers items that boost your SR level checks as well.If you're going to go the route of hiring NPCs, try to find a Marshal with awesome Charisma and Determined Caster as a minor aura.  That should give you anywhere from +4 to your check and up (and boostable if you give said marshal a Charisma-boosting item or Eagle's Splendor).</blockquote>
