No the Bodak is a tough monster and thats just it, if all critters had a weak spot to explote would you still play ?

You basically only had to roll a one (and I was the fighter), so failing your Fort save was only a matter of time. I didn't even consider trying to fight blind, as he was barely treating it as a gaze attack. As long as the bodak wasn't around a corner, you had to make a save against it.
I hate bodaks now...![]()

1 fighter
1cleric
1 wizard
1 rouge

I can't really see the use for such a monster other than to screw players. I thought they had eliminated most of the save or die stuff on critters. I just found out the hard way that I was wrong.

I don't use bodaks as monsters in my campaign at all, now. I don't need to kill a PC in my party without them having much of a chance to defend themselves.

WRT all of the people who say "Death Ward", you're being somewhat silly. Death Ward is, IME, not exactly a common spell to prepare at 8th level (it probably becomes more common at level 11+ where the opportunity cost is lower and there are more death effects in play).
