This was really awesome! I loved the tactics and how you really controlled the fights. One question, why didn't you use Viconia's Shield's Reflection? IIRC that will reflect the MFs magic missiles back at them.
There are a few reasons I don't use it. Magic Missiles does not do any damage to the Illithid Arcanists, they have "Shield". I also need to keep my Bonus Action for "Click Heels". I don't worry so much about their Magic Missiles, I don't want to be in range to get Mind Blasted or Counterspelled. My strategy versus the Illithid Arcanists is to use AOE spells from out of range of their Counterspell. Ice Storm because it has more range than Shatter, possibly inflicts prone and does bludgeoning damage as well, the "Fire Shield: Warm" gives 2 of the 4 resistance to cold damage unfortunately. I have gotten Counterspelled significantly less using AOE than direct damage in previous runs.
OMG man... you are THE GOAT/THE LEGEND🙏🙏 (Sorry for my english is very very bad😔) but you are fucking awesome, congratulation on your battle and the build😎
