'''Illithid Arcanist''' is a type of hostile Aberration character in ''[[Baldur's Gate 3]]''
== Involvement==
Many Illthid Arcanists will appear during several combat encounters at the [[High Hall]] and [[Confront the Elder Brain#Atop the Netherbrain|Atop the Netherbrain]]. 
Illithid Arcanists have 2 variants: one with [[Fire Shield: Chill]] and Fire resistance, and another with [[Fire Shield: Warm]] and Cold resistance. Their version of [[Magic Missile]] deals more damage, fires more missiles, and has a significantly longer range. This makes them dangerous if not dealt with quickly. If pushed or thrown off the top of the [[Netherbrain]] during the final battle, Illithid Arcanists will simply teleport back to their former position.
