    Hi, looking for 2 things

    1. a list that shows all of the monsters in Bg2 but gives only their abilities/powers. I don't need to know how to beat them or their stats, ex. mind flayers cast psyonic blast resulting in a stun or they drain intelligence etc.

    2. a list that shows what can get rid of effects such as confusion, level drain, etc..

    thanks
    jim

    1 .Try the Book of many things(download) from the section of downloads in Sorcerer's Place.
    2 . For Level Drain use restoration , for confusion use dispell , for entangle or slow use free action or dispell , for charm use dispell etc. Dispell must be your main spell (a bard is the best for dispell). Restoration is very important . Is the only spell you can use on Level Drain. For Level Drain you can use negative plane protection(before combat) and for finger of death use death ward. Hope that helps.

    I must add Chaotic command to your list, since it's a so great spell. It grants immunity to charm, confusion, domination, stun, hold, ect... basically everything a mindflayer can throw at you :D

    Chaotic commands protect from almost everything, except magical fear.

    So, memorize Resist Fear\Remove Fear, too. :)

    The mind flayer's intelligence drain wears off after 5 rounds. It only happens on a critical hit by the flayer.
    It helps for your mainliners to have atleast 11 Int. Since the mind flayer will drain 5 int points on a critical, 11 int allows you to take a hit and continue the onslaught. This is why Minsc, Anomen and Valygar are particularly useless against these illethids.
    If you have these guys, its best to have them down a potion of genius before fighting any illethids.

    Shrikant, they drain int on hit.
    But usually they need critical to hit you due to low THAC0 :)
