I use Breach on liches all the time, and it works.

Personally I think that Beholders/Elder Orbs are the most powerful "common" enemy. I've yet to find a reliable way to beat them every time. I don't have the special edition for the "shield of cheese", or whatever, so maybe that has something to do with it.

Mind Flayers die too easily to several different things, particularly summons, and Liches aren't really common enough to be considered a normal enemy. You don't see whole villages full of them, do you? Whew, I thought not. Negative plane protection basicly makes Vampires into a couple of thugs or something.

So Beholders it is...
