Freedom of Movement really should nullify the paralyzed part of Bigby's spells, you would still take damage from a giant magic hand crushing you but be able to move.

Yeah, it is interesting though, the only countermeasures are those that can apply to ANY spell. It is truly out of place. To compare, it would be like if hold monster ignored immunities and forced you to save at will -10. But, because it is wrapped up in complicated grapple checks people don't notice how bad it really is. I guess it's rakshasa time.

Immunities dont affect bigby spells unless that was a server change I missed.

Edit:oops you meant it 'should'

To be fair, Bigby's is basically the one ace casters have against melee types to avoid being killed in a single round. And with all the SR on this server, it's not even that reliable. It's just, give it to a low level mob, and yeah, it's a bit OP.

It's a pretty good one! Works just fine on most of the bosses in the epic level areas, save for the red dragon.
