    Have just done this encounter at ~1.1 mln XP. I tried to play "fair" as is soak up damage 'til it became impossible (instead of leaving at once). The full party lasted just enough to "eat" all damaging spells bar magic missiles. Jaheira and Korgan died. The rest of my party went out at ~30% of HPs. Then my thief used the door trick to enter and get out after a backstab (under Haste). A dozen of attempts and all three of the rakshasa were defeated.

    Just on the issue of PMW design intent: it's completely clear that the original designers knew it was compatible with natural immunity to nonmagical weapons, because multiple creatures in the original game with nonmagical-weapon immunity are scripted to use PMW. (e.g. most liches).
