    [​IMG] I think that the "chaotic commands" -spell works best with those, I´m not sure. Better keep some dispel magics at hand...

    Your people are running around because they are scared. Cast remove fear or even better resist fear before the battle. Also, there are certain items that will prevent fear such as the dragonslaying sword found in Firkraags place. Hope this helps.

    Some enemies have effects similar to cloak of fear - Dragons, so it pays (if you know what you are up against) to cast spells such as Resist Fear. :p

    Chaotic Command is the best spell I have found to protect my party from mind controlling spells.

    Beserker or Barbarian rage makes you immune to this on an individual level. Mazzy's special ability invoke courage helps.

    Rsist or Remove fears spells are great too.

    Play a Cavalier- not only are you immune to fear, but you can remove it from the other members of your party. They are also the ultimate dragonslayers...

    Free Action (ring, spell or potion) will protect you from stun which also includes stun from Mind Flayers. Also don't forget that all stun effects can be removed with Remove Paralysis spell.

    We're diddling around Athkatla now because I want my Bard (Skald kit) to reach 15th level before heading off to Spellhold. At that point her song will be a 4-point improvement in AC, to hit and damage, with immunity to Fear. At 20th level she adds immunity to Stun and Confusion, then there are the extended ToB benefits.

    I know the Skald gets an extra-powerful song - I'm not sure about Haer'Dalis's vocal capabilities.
