If they're new and especially unfamiliar with the beholder may I suggest giving them a demonstration, in game. Make the encounter a game of 'don't get tagged by the beholder zombie'. Just make sure the team knows that they should be scared of it and that the beholder won't see through tricks.

<3 :)ĭisintegration beam is definitely scary.

Basically any trick you can think of it can't think a way out of. Have strong fighter pick large piece of rubble to use as cover and approach it with that for safety while rogue keeps popping up a sock cloth dummy (or even just his hat) from the top of the mobile rubble to draw fire. Illusion or someone with good saves leading into an especially obvious trap or ambush. Summon up a mirror and get beholder to attack that monstrosity. Old cartoon gag of getting beholder to shoot it's friends. Prepared action to jump away in front of a leaning pillar to get beholder to bring things down on top of itself. Poorly drawn cartoons of characters on a stick. For more information about Wizards of the Coast or any of Wizards' trademarks or other intellectual property, please visit their website at Illusions.
