==Tips & Tricks==
High [[magic resistance]] will prevent most of the above spells from affecting you, making these enemies ''much'' more dangerous to some [[species]] than others, and generally more dangerous to lower-level characters. An [[amulet of stasis]] will block all of their spells except Disintegrate and Confuse, and so may be an option for players who lack magic resistance (and have HP and [[potions of curing]] to spare).

*Most of the threat comes from its spells. Having high [[willpower]] prevents most spells from affecting you, making them little more than marginally dangerous melee enemies. But if you don't have high will, they are ''very'' scary threats - [[polymorph]] is often a dangerous effect.
