- Unbelievable. This is _by far_ my best game ever, and I'm only
- on dungeon level 7!
-
- FOUND (believe it!) so far: gauntlets of power, 2 blessed magic lamps (!),
- boots of speed (yessir!), amulet of reflection, blessed tinning kit.
-
- WISHED for (2 lamps): Mjollnir (now up to +6), gray dragon scale mail (+0).
-
- _AND_ I've just found a wand of wishing! WITH 3 CHARGES! on dlvl 7!
-
- *suppressed shiver*
-
- The obvious question: what do I wish for? I've go 6 wishes left (I've already
- wished for a blessed scroll of charging (I wished for 3, but only got one. ?),
- so 2 (left) + 3 (recharge) + 1 (wrestle out of wand). SIX! :-)
-
- Please note that I'm not a newbie (well, not too bad). Using saved games, I
- _have_ reached demi-godhood. For the past month, I've been trying to complete
- the game without saving, and always seem to meet _stupid_ deaths. Furthest I've
- gone without saving is dlvl 30. This _should_ be THE game.
-
- My own suggestions: amulet of life saving (more than 1, perhaps?), 3 blessed
- scroll of enchant armor, ring of levitation, 3 blessed scroll of genocide
- (liches, et al), 3 cursed scroll of genocide (nurses, wraiths), ring of teleport
- control.
-
- Side question: I don't have Stormy or Excalibur, so I'm not protected from level
- drains. If I genocide liches, am I safe?
-
- Other Side question: can I wish for more than 1 amulet of life saving with a
- single wish?
-
- What do the experts think? BTW, I'm playing a priest.
