Need for Arcane?
![kevino2012](https://forums.beamdog.com/applications/dashboard/design/images/defaulticon.png)
Recently got the game on the iPad and enjoying it however when it comes to Irenicus and other spell users in the game (inc. ToB) do you need a spellcaster in the group to strip off the spell protections or are there other ways to strip the protections off.?

It's no surprise that Imoen fills a double-role as Thief/Mage when she is a member of a party of five or six, where she isn't needed for fighting. My recent melee-heavy group with a Cavalier + Keldorn + Minsc + Anomen + Imoen + Jaheira->Mr.ToB didn't face any serious problems on the way to Amelyssan. Just still playing on Core difficulty setting ... actually the first time I didn't restart sometime late during ToB. This time, way too many spells, scrolls, wands and potions than I needed. And surprisingly, even in the final fights, Imoen only gave a minimum of support, and rescueing her early only gave optional access to more power. At first I had thought I would need lots of summons (devas, planetars especially) as not to be overwhelmed and maybe had chosen the wrong high level abilities, but no, four fighters storming in with Greater Whirlwind made it a matter of a few seconds only. Wow!
