    I've just finished TOB (again) and the final Pocket Plane challenge, the Ravager, is one of the toughest fights in the game. I thought I'd take him out with Time Stop followed by Imprisonment. Not only was the swine immune to Time Stop but Imprisonment as well. Ho hum. I've heard tell that Demogorgon and Melissan are immune to Time Stop as well. Is this true? Are there any others?

    Don't know for sure, but I imagine she'd have to be. It's the end fight, after all. Honestly, she's not that hard! I think the elementals that she summons are harder that she is, so I wouldn't worry too much whether or not time stop affects her.

    Other creatures - I think Demilichs aren't affect by time stop.

    I'm not sure if ToB dragons are or are not.

    Dragons are effected. I had Jan do a Time Stop Trap on Saladrex in Watcher's Keep and it worked just fine.

    The original Balthazar is.

    Melissan is, but her cronies are not, so if you use it, you can throw lots of spells at her.

    Demiliches should be (they are immune to all level 9 and lower spells), guess that's a bug. There's no point using it against a demilich though, since he's immune to anything else you can throw under the time stop.

    One of the enemies in Improved Gromnir sort of is, as are a few guys in SoA.
