- This is a tough call, because you really want EVERYTHING. Although
- weapons and armor are the normal choices, you should also consider
- that they are fairly easily available. Once you find an alter,
- you'll be able to get that frostbrand with some work. You might
- also want to consider wishing for some of the more rare things:
-
- - blessed +3 gauntlets of power (especially if you're weak)
- - blessed amulet of life saving (especially if you type too fast)
- - ring of conflict (if you can already deal with monsters 1 on 1)
- - blessed +3 pair of speed boots (although they are armor, the real
- benefit is the extra speed)
