==Gameplay==
==Notes==
* Each copy of this enemy starts the fight with one condition, out of either [[Fire_Shield:_Chill_(Condition)|Fire Shield: Chill]] or [[Fire_Shield:_Warm_(Condition)|Fire Shield: Warm]] applied.{{note|This is verified to be true during ''at least'' the "Atop the Netherbrain" combat encounter. Please amend this statement if this is not true for some reason in other encounters.{{Verify}}}}
* Illithid Arcanists have 2 variants: one with [[Fire Shield: Chill]] and Fire resistance, and another with [[Fire Shield: Warm]] and Cold resistance.
* This enemy has been observed to be capable of using most of, if not all, of the same abilities as the base [[Mind Flayer]] enemy type.
* 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.
* Notable abilities this enemy uses include: [[Magic Missile]], [[Shield]] (as a [[Reaction]])
* If pushed or thrown off the top of the [[Netherbrain]] during the final battle, Illithid Arcanists will simply teleport back to their former position.
