I played a Paladin with 3 intelligence, then chose Intel to sac in the dream and lost 1 itel somewhere else (cant remember, Hell maybe?) and basically ran through ToB with 1 intelligence.

@Reigns:

I don't think you can roll a paladin with 3 int. 12 or something is the minimum. But I played a half-orc Wizard Slayer who started with 1 int and when I sac'd another one, i didn't die - rather i gained a point! Weird. A bit off-topic though.

A paladin with 3 or below intelligence is classified by D&D rules as animalistic, and his alignment automatically changes to neutral because he can't distinguish between right and wrong, and merely seeks to feed and to reproduce.

He's not that dumb, and he fact I'm betting he's won more times than he's lost. After all, how many of you had your PC killed at one point or another? How many times did you have to reload?

Every one of those times, Jon won.

But wouldn't it be more interesting if they did? I agree that a trio of Spell Sequenced Skull Traps to the head every time you meet a Lich would be a bit much, though. :D

Actually I was thinking:
Jon
Elemental Lich
Shade Lich
Kangaxx the Lich
that drow in Sulldanesselar
Shangalar
Layene
Gate Lich

I was wrong, forgot about Twisted Rune

Tolgerias, Perth the Adept, the Cowled Enforcers, Mekrath and even Lavok aren't as powerful as these guys.

Edit-
If you choose to fight them then these can also be rather difficult:
the Enslaved Genie in Hell
Ribald
