Does 100% MR protect you against all psionic attacks (Ilithids, ...) ?

Apparently yes. Just tested it with Boo (100% MR) against a Mind Flayer. Even when he fails his save Magic Resistance negates the effect.

Now please tell me how did you use Boo?Poor hamster

I CLUA-ed him in
createcreature("Boo);
and then Ctrl-Q ed him.
He rocks! 5 attacks and DEX 25, All saving throws at 1 and 100 MR.

Psionic Attacks ignore Magic Resistance. Examples include Psionic Domination and Psionic Stun. Saves will help though.

Are you sure?
Like I said, I spawned myself a Mind Flayer and kept running around him. MOst times I made my saves but when I rolled 1 the effects didn't take place either and it said "Magic Resistance" in the combat window.

Then the next question is - are all psionic attacks "saveable" ?

yes, i believe so. makes sense too, since psionics affect the mind, and those of strong will power should be able to "shrug off" the effects.

edit: im not sure, however, if psionic domination allows a save...

If Magic Resistance was able to counter Psionics, nobody would be worshipping Chaotic Commands anymore already. [img]tongue.gif[/img] There are many very good reasons why Psionics are so feared, and their ignoring Magic Resistance is one of those reasons.

I don't suppose you are running the Mac-Version of BG2 are you? If the Psionics in your game are not ignoring Magic Resistance, you got a pretty big bug. Do you have any mods installed?
