I agree completely with you on this point. When I first heard about the Weimer Mods, I had just started my second game of BGII. I noticed a thread about "Improved Illyich" and read how everybody was having such a hard time beating him and his cohorts. I popped in and said "What's the problem? Imoen took him and his whole gang out with one Stinking Cloud and one Fireball." Then I found out what they meant by "Improved" Illyich. I still remember that it took me an ENTIRE WEEKEND to beat him the first time I faced the group. Then I developed my "run, hide, and ambush" tactic that has worked so well - until now.

Guess I'll be spending many MORE hours trying to find a NEW tactic to defeat him and his crew this time around.
